The living room is a focal point of family life and social gatherings. As a space that often creates a first impression, its energy and layout are crucial.

Ideally, the homeowner should face north or east while seated in the living room. Other occupants and guests should be positioned opposite or beside them. The northeast corner is considered auspicious in Vastu, drawing positive energy. Locating the living room in this area can foster harmony among residents.

For optimal Vastu alignment, the living room floor should be slightly lower than the rest of the house to create a sense of grounding.

The kitchen, often considered the heart of a home, benefits greatly from Vastu principles. Ideally positioned in the southeast corner, the kitchen should be oriented to allow the cook to face east during preparation. This alignment harmonises with the elements and promotes positive energy. Additionally, avoiding placement directly opposite the main entrance is essential for maintaining a balanced flow of energy within the home.

According to Vastu principles, doors, particularly the main entrance, should open to a full ninety degrees to facilitate unobstructed entry of positive energy. Avoid placing any objects that hinder the door's full opening as this can restrict energy flow into the home.
