In Vastu Shastra (a traditional Indian system of architecture), a west-facing home is any house where the front door or main entrance faces west. When designed according to Vastu principles, these homes are said to bring prosperity and wealth (and great views of the setting sun, too). In this article, we’ll go over the pros and cons of these houses, plus the ideal room placements and design ideas to enhance the flow of positive energy in a westerly home according to Vastu principles.
Things You Should Know
- In the Vastu Shastra tradition, a west-facing home is said to bring prosperity and wealth when it’s designed according to Vastu principles.
- West-facing houses receive natural light during sunset and stay cool most of the day. The east-facing backyard is sunny in the morning and afternoon.
- Some believe west-facing homes are bad luck since north and east are more popular, but any direction can be equally as auspicious when designed well.
