Weight
In order to place furniture and objects in the correct locations, it is necessary to know where the positive sectors in the house are and where the negative ones are.
Positive sectors: north, east, and northeast.
Neutral sectors: northwest and southeast.
Negative sectors: south, west, and southwest.
We leave the positive sectors less filled, placing fewer items there, and in the negative sectors – more items, in order to preserve lightness in the positive sectors and add heaviness to the negative ones.
Rooms in the north and east should be larger (in a proportion of 1:2) than the rooms in the south and west.
Light furniture should be placed in the positive sectors, and heavy furniture – in the negative ones.
Symmetry
Symmetry is one of the main principles of Vastu Shastra.
Behind it stand ancient calculations.
Design that uses symmetry not only pleases the eye but also creates harmony in any space.
The principle of symmetry can also be used in the exterior of the building (outer walls), as well as in the arrangement of various pieces of furniture inside the house.
