COMMERCIAL VASTU.
Sure! Let’s go through Commercial Vastu Shastra in complete detail — covering what it is, why it’s important, and how it applies to different types of commercial spaces like offices, shops, showrooms, hotels, hospitals, etc.
🧭 What is Commercial Vastu?
Vastu Shastra is the ancient Indian science of architecture that aligns buildings with the five natural elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space) to promote harmony, success, and prosperity.
When applied to commercial buildings, it focuses on designing and positioning spaces so that they attract:
- Business growth 💰
- Customer flow 👥
- Positive energy ✨
- Productivity & profit 📈

🔑 Core Principles of Commercial Vastu
Every commercial property — whether an office, showroom, or hotel — is influenced by:
- Plot direction and shape
- Entrance location
- Placement of the boss, staff, cash counter, machinery, etc.
- Flow of energy (air, light, and movement)
- Colors, materials, and interior layout
