The plots are divided into eight sectors taking into
consideration the direction North, Whether it is
straight or diagonal. These sectors help us to design
the house i.e., to place the kitchen in south-east,
Puja in north-east, dining in west, bathroom to the
east and bed room or storage to the south-west, etc. |
|
| |
Note: South west & North west areas are used for bed
rooms or living rooms and close to these rooms bath
rooms are being provided. In towns and cities, where
granary and cattle are not found, sheds are not
required, so the space can be used otherwise. |
