When creating a harmonious and balanced living environment, the fusion of ancient Indian wisdom and modern design trends can work wonders.

“Vastu Shastra is a system of architecture that revolves around the belief in Vastu Purusha,” the deity considered the soul of a building. It encompasses various aspects of architecture, such as the layout, placement of rooms, colours, and construction materials. The principles of Vastu Shastra align these elements to create a space that fosters well-being, harmony, and prosperity.”

In this blog post, let’s Learn how using natural wood, according to Vastu Shastra, can transform your spaces for a cheerful ambience and enhance your decor projects.

Wood for the Main or entrance door.

Wood as the material for their primary home doors is considered very auspicious. A threshold on the main gate is believed to absorb negative energy and allow positive energy to enter. Keeping the area around the main entrance clean and hygienic can attract positive energy into the home. A door with wooden engravings or a design featuring divine gods and goddesses can bring prosperity to your home.

Wood is ideal for the Puja Room or Mandir.

According to Vastu Shastra, using wood to create a temple or Home Pooja Mandir is considered auspicious and more religious. Wooden shelves and panels with intricate designs are highly recommended for designing your Pooja Mandir at home or in other spaces. These wooden designs for home temples are widely popular and celebrated nationwide.

Combining intricately carved wooden panels on each side of the prayer room creates a divine and spiritual atmosphere. The light from diyas filters through the wooden boards, creating a beautiful design on the external walls, which is also a treat for the eyes.

Bed and Bedroom.

The bed we sleep on can be affected by positive and negative energies, which can impact our sensitivity levels and lead to stress and tension if the energy is negative. Negative energy tends to be emitted by metal beds and storage units made of metal or leather under the bed. According to Vastu, the bed should promote restful sleep after a tiring day and free you from problems; a wooden bed and natural wood floor are considered sources of positive energy and a place to rejuvenate and recharge.

Wooden Flooring.

Many homeowners prefer the warmth and natural energy of wooden floors when it comes to flooring. According to Vastu Shastra, wooden flooring is particularly auspicious and can create a cosy and inviting ambience in living rooms and bedrooms. To promote positive energy, it is recommended that you ensure the wooden flooring is of good quality and well-maintained.

Wood is highly valued in Vastu for its natural beauty and warmth. Hardwood flooring, like oak or teak, is known to enhance positive energy flow and bring a sense of comfort and luxury to any room. However, the wood must be of good quality and free from defects.

Dining/Lounge area.

According to Vastu Shastra, wooden flooring is best for home or office dining or lounge areas. Using wooden flooring in the dining area can promote good health among family members and prevent diseases and laziness.

In addition to the dining area, it is also recommended to use wooden flooring on the house’s stairs. In Vastu Shastra, this is considered auspicious as the stairs connect the two floors, and using wood on the stairs can bring prosperity and happiness to the household.

Vastu for workspace

According to Vastu, it is recommended to have a workspace located in the west or south-west zone. Entrepreneurs are also advised to use a rectangular table made from high-quality wood. Using a glass or irregularly shaped metal table in the cabin can lead to confusion, stress, and detachment from work.

The combination of Reshawood’s natural wood and Vastu Shastra principles offers a synergistic approach to creating balanced and harmonious living and working environments. Whether you aim to enrich your home gym, meeting spaces, Puja room, bedroom, or workspace, these two elements can create spaces that resonate with positivity and serenity.

Reshawood’s commitment to sustainable and authentic wood products aligns seamlessly with the principles of Vastu Shastra, making them the perfect choice for homeowners, commercial space owners, and interior decorators looking to create spaces that inspire and nurture the soul.
