According to Vastu, a positive, peaceful and motivating work environment is proportional to the growth and success of the business. Here are quick Vastu guidelines for designing and constructing office space to usher in positive energy and growth in your business.

Location

• The North is considered as the direction of the lord of wealth, Kuber.  So, choosing an office building facing the North, North-West and North-East directions is ideal for bringing positivity. Financial benefits, and good fortune to the business.
• As a generalized Vastu tip for business, rent or buy a shermukhi plot or property. Such properties are narrower in the back and broader/wider in the front. This type of property is considered lucky for an office building. 
• Rent or buy a property for an office that is in the direction favourable to you.
• Make sure the office is located in a crowded place and besides running roads. This will bring in more clients and/or sales.
• The main door of the office should not be obstructed by any pillar, electric pole, or tree. This can block the flow of positive energy inside.

Facilities

• Ensure that the toilets in the office are located on the north or west side of the building.
• Keep any water resources or elements towards the northeast side of the building. And make sure that you don’t overcrowd this corner with unnecessary staff. Keep it as light and airy as possible.
• The office pantry should be placed in the South-East direction and paint the area in bright colours, like bright green or blue to add a touch of freshness to the space.

Maintenance

• Keep the main door bright, attractive and welcoming.
• Always keep the office free of clutters. Clutters can build negative energy in the space which will affect productivity and performance of the work. 
• Washrooms and toilets should not be constructed in a northwest direction. Remember to always keep that area clean. Clutters in the area can hamper the flow of money in the organization.
• Avoid keeping any finished goods or products on the front desk
• Any financial papers or classified documents should be securely kept in the southwest direction.
• Keep the desks clutter-free to avoid mess and confusion, which can hamper productivity.
• Quickly discard broken pictures, stationary, and other items in the office.

Setting

• It is advised to place the reception area on the northeast side of the building. It should also face towards the entrance.
• Avoid making the employees sit under the beam.
• The cabin or office of the owner of the business should face north. He/she should also sit facing north while meeting with clients or discussing an important deal. 
• The back of the owner’s chair should not face a glass or window. Also, avoid keeping a temple or God’s idol behind the seat.
• South or west is considered an ideal direction for people in managerial positions to sit. 
• The accounts department should be placed on the east or north side as they are ideal directions for conducting money transactions. 
• Sales and marketing team should sit facing the north. This direction is ideal to keep the team motivated.
• The northwest side of the building is an ideal location for a conference room.
• Place the guardroom or office in the Northwest direction to allow guards to efficiently watch over the visitors and other activities in the office premises. 
• Keep the centre of the office open to promote a swift flow of positive vibes. 

Structure 

• The west, south or southwest is the best corner for constructing the staircase. Avoid making stairs in the centre of the office.
• Vehicles should be parked facing the North-West direction of the building.
• Avoid making parking zones in the North-East direction.
• Ventilation and windows in the building should be in the Northern and Eastern directions.

Decor
