Sketch a Vastu-aware floor plan for your Indian home — part of our free planning tools: set plot size, draw rooms, turn on the nine-zone grid, and spot commonly cited doshas before you talk to an architect.
Copy this URL to share or bookmark your floor plan. No account or server needed.
It is an interactive sketch pad where you draw rooms on your plot size, turn on the nine-zone Vastu grid, and see which placements match commonly cited rules. Export PNG, print, or share a link — no account required.
The room advisor gives text guidance from entrance direction and a room checklist. This designer is for spatial layout: sizes, positions, furniture, and visual dosha flags.
South-east is the most cited zone (fire element). Avoid north-east for kitchen in most schools. Use the overlay to test alternatives before you commit on site. For buildable area first, see our FAR calculator.
Yes — enter interior dimensions and zone your rooms. Structural core and main door direction are usually fixed in apartments; treat results as interior planning hints.
No. NBC, structural design, drainage, and municipal approval need qualified professionals. This tool supports early cultural layout conversations only.
No. Some ideas align with daylight and ventilation; many claims are traditional, not evidence-based. We do not score health, wealth, or luck.

Many families in India discuss Vastu Shastra while finalising room positions — kitchen zone, master bedroom corner, pooja placement, and toilet locations. A paper sketch helps, but it is hard to see all nine padas (directional zones) at once. This tool maps the classic 3×3 Vastu Purusha Mandala on your plot bounding box so you can test layouts quickly.
It works best in the early design stage: comparing two wing positions, checking whether the kitchen sits in south-east, or confirming the north-east stays open for a pooja or courtyard — before detailed architectural drawings.
| Zone | Often used for | Often avoided |
|---|---|---|
| North-east (Ishanya) | Pooja, open space, light wells | Kitchen, toilet, heavy storage |
| South-east (Agni) | Kitchen, electrical panels | Pooja as primary room, water tank |
| South-west (Nairritya) | Master bedroom, heavy storage | Kitchen, main entrance, septic |
| Centre (Brahmasthana) | Courtyard, circulation | Toilet, kitchen, closed heavy rooms |
Schools and regions disagree on edge cases. The tool flags widely cited doshas (for example toilet in north-east) — not every interpretive nuance.
Draw rooms to scale, move walls, score zones, 3D preview.
Pick entrance direction + room checklist; get text guidelines and mitigations.
Check permissible built-up area before you expand rooms.
Estimate budget after you settle on size and layout.
A practical sequence: confirm FAR / built-up limits → sketch Vastu zones on this tool → rough cost band → paint & tile estimates → share PNG with your architect → use the advisor for entrance-specific notes. Architects still produce compliant drawings; Vastu here is one cultural input among daylight, privacy, and circulation.
