Abstract
The meaning of traditional Indian Vastu has diminished over time due to misunderstanding and an imperfect knowledge of Vastus guiding principles and their scientific foundation. For those who believe in Vastu, the purpose of this paper is to shed light on the classical Indian principles of Vastu and their application to contemporary residential architecture practise in urban regions. Consequently, the consequences of vastu principles with regard to characteristics such as Facing, Location, Weight Balance, and Appliances have been described via a variety of approaches for their use in constructing residential structures. In addition, it provides scientific basis for each Vastu principle and its significance in planning the layout, which would provide practical benefits to the occupants and the peer requirements of the spaces. This document might serve as a fast guide for architects to implement vastu principles in residential projects.
