Vastu Shastra Tips for Building Construction

Vastu shastra (vāstu śāstra) is a traditional Hindu system of architecture which literally translates to “science of architecture.” These are texts found on the Indian subcontinent that describe principles of design, layout, measurements, ground preparation, space arrangement and spatial geometry.

The core principle of Vastu Shastra revolves around the five elements: earth, water, fire, air, and space. These elements are believed to be the building blocks of the universe and have a significant influence on the energy flow within a space. By understanding the interplay of these elements, we can design and construct buildings that support positive energy and balance.
