Here is how to design and furnish your livingroom according to the rules of Vaastu Shastra. Aside from kitchen and bedroom, the livingroom has greatest influence on our private life.

The livingroom is the place for resting and recreation. Here you can relax or read a book after a working day. It´s also the place for stimulating conversations.

When you often invite guests, a good place for the livingroom is the west- or southside of the house. There's good atmosphere for entertaining guests, or all the members of the family can sit together. General advice according to the wisdom of Vastu is different, so keep in mind the south is recommended for this special purpose.

The location of the livingroom in your house

The livingroom is placed best in the middle of a house. The north and the west are also suitable for the livingroom. The north is assigned to the planet Jupiter, the planet of learning. The west is assigned to the planet Mercury, the planet of communication and sociability.

The colours in your livingroom

Light blue and yellow colours are suited for the walls of the livingroom. These colours appease and animate at the same time.

The arrangement of the furniture in the livingroom

For the position of the furniture in your livingroom the directions are important. The north - book shelf The east - heatings, electrical appliances The south - seats looking to the north or east, book shelves, cupboards, heatings, electrical appliances The west - seats looking to the north or east, book shelves, cupboards, phone and communication facilities.

Take care not to have any windows or doors in your back if you sit in the livingroom. Windows or doors in the back reduce the effect of relaxation and resting.
