As architects, you shape the blueprint of how communities live and grow.
But when your township master planning integrates Vastu principles, the result is more than design, it’s a space that resonates with energy, balance, and long-term well-being. While planning Vastu, the correct focus is on the 5 elements of nature, i.e. fire, water, air, earth, and space.
Here are a few key Vastu guidelines to consider during township planning:
1. Entry Gate
The main entryway is one of the most vital elements in Vastu—it’s the threshold through which energies flow into your space. A well-placed, clutter-free entrance with an archway above not only enhances aesthetics but also helps elevate the energetic harmony of the space.
Note : In Vastu, every direction can have an auspicious entrance. The key is to plan the layout so that the main entry aligns with the most favorable point for that specific direction.
2. Brahmasthan / Central Open Space
Keep the central zone of the township open, this is the Brahmasthan, the spiritual and energetic core. Placing gardens, water elements or green zones here, especially towards the North-East, enhances vitality and community well-being.
3. Building Heights & Gradation
Maintain lower structures in the North and East, gradually increasing height towards the South and West. This allows energy to flow unblocked and supports balance across the entire layout.
When you design with Vastu, you don't just plan space, you invite nature in.
Today, there’s a growing demand for designs that are not just functional or aesthetic, but also soulfully aligned with the five elements. A Vastu-compliant township feels intuitive, grounded, and inherently life-enhancing, for every resident, for years to come.
