The following are the guidelines to design and construct an ideal house which houses prosperity, protection and peaceful environment in the house. It is essential to understand and interpret these ground rules and then apply.
The main door of the house should preferably be located in any of the exalted positions from the Northeast corner - either from North of Northeast or from East of Northeast. Doors can also be in the South of Southeast or West of Northwest but in no case, should the main entrance be from the center of any direction.

Care should be taken while providing balconies so that a cut or truncation is not created in the Northeast corner.
The kitchen should be ideally situated in the South­east corner of the house and as an alternative in certain cases, may be in the North­west corner, but in both cases, the cooking platform should be arranged to facili­tate cooking while facing east only. The Kitchen should never be in the Northeast corner and it should also be avoided in the Southwest too, as both locations will create problems with respect to the health and finance of the inmates.
Rooms in the West and East can be used for din­ing. The appetite can be stimulated in the dining hall by having the walls painted in light pink or orange. A rectangular dining table is the most preferred. In the dining room, while eating, one should sit facing East or West.
Grains and other food can be stored in the Northwest sector. Oil, butter, ghee, milk and other oily liquids can be stored in the South­east of the Northwest room.
When a generator or transformer is to be located outside the plot, it should be placed in an open space in the Southeast sector. As a second choice, it may be placed in the Northwest sector.
The overhead water tank should be located in the Southwest corner of the terrace preferably in the West of Southwest.
Penthouses, if built, should be in the Southwest corner of the terrace leav­ing an open space in the North and East.

No garbage should be thrown or dumped in the Northeast corner of the building or plot and the Northeast should always be kept free and clean.
Heavy equipments such as the grinder, fridge, etc, should be placed towards the South and West walls in the kitchen. Even in the storeroom, racks should be built on the South and West walls.
Rainwater should flow West to East or South to North and ultimately flow out from the Northeast corner of the house or plot.

Pic­tures of eagles, battle scenes, and carnivorous animals should not be used for interior wall decorations.  Pictures of horses, cows and elephants can be used for decoration purposes.
The directions of East and West are important as far as obtaining the energy from the sun is concerned. The importance of the directions of the North and the South lies in the flow of magnetic waves which flows from North Pole to South Pole. Therefore southward portion of every building should be higher than the northward portion.
Besides this it should also be kept in mind that the inclination of land, building, floors of rooms etc. should be towards North-East. In other words the parts in the West and South of the building should be slightly higher than those in the North and East.
