An introduction to the method
What is Vastu?
Vastu is a traditional Indian system for organising space. It considers orientation to the cardinal directions, the arrangement of rooms and the relationship between the five natural elements.
View the servicesThe basis of the approach
The space is considered as a whole
In the Vastu tradition, individual objects matter, as does the organisation of the whole property: where the entrance is, how the rooms are arranged and what they are used for.
That is why a consultation starts with a particular property and your question. Recommendations for an existing flat, a new office and a future home will address different needs.
What is considered
Three foundations of a spatial assessment
The arrangement of areas
The arrangement of rooms, work areas and objects within the space.
The five elements
Earth, water, fire, air and space—the traditional foundation of Vastu.
Putting it into practice
When to get in touch
When you want to reconsider an existing space, change home or office, or take Vastu into account before carrying out a new project.
The main page presents three separate services. Each service page describes the needs it addresses, the consultation and the materials to prepare.

The method and its limits
Does this replace an architectural project?
No. A Vastu consultation provides recommendations for the space. Architectural drawings, engineering calculations and safety matters are the responsibility of qualified specialists.
How does Vastu differ from interior design?
Interior design addresses how a property looks and is used. Vastu adds a traditional perspective on directions, the arrangement of areas and the five elements. You can take the recommendations into account when working with a designer.
Does Vastu guarantee a particular outcome in life?
A consultation explains the characteristics of the space through the Vastu tradition and offers recommendations. It does not guarantee a medical, financial or family outcome.
