VAASTU IN PLANNING


What is VAASTU ; VAASTU is termed as ancient science and principals to be used in planning.
The basic principals are Puja room and water tank in eeshan (North East corner) 
Kitchen in south east corner
And heavy structure/ store in south west corner. Rest bed rooms and other spaces.
" A very simple logic".
This logic holds correct while planning in a bigger plot/ farm where there is an ample space around the house and you have morning sun, evening sun and good breeze.
now what if the case is 1000 sqft plot in row housing, and both side common wall. Here VAASTU principals cannot be worked out and will be irrelevant, you should look to the open spaces keep kitchen and rooms well ventilated, and plan to have more of natural air and light.
Forget VAASTU, or you will mess up with an idiotic plan.
VAASTU is basic principle not a rule to follow, it is not a religion but a healthy science.

In continuation to my earlier post about the field of architecture,  there is a specific difference between a designer and artist,  an artist uses his brush as per his will and make different strokes on a canvas.  He uses his tool as master stroke to shape his imagination.  While a designer is a person who has to transform the strokes upon a live canvas giving shapes and colors to a 3d environment.  Whose task is difficult? Certainly a designer's canvas. To bring imagination into a reality,  to fulfill the dream into colors of 3d.  What a great artist.  And thy name is architect.  A different profession of art to reality. I will continue to write on this subject in my  further posts,  be in touch.
