Integrating Vastu Shastra with Environmental Psychology for Conflict-Free Homes

This research explores the intersection of ancient Vastu Shastra and modern environmental psychology to design homes that foster harmony and reduce conflict. It highlights how spatial orientation, natural light, ventilation, and uncluttered layouts—central to Vastu—align with psychological findings on mood regulation, stress reduction, and interpersonal comfort. By comparing traditional architectural wisdom with contemporary behavioural science, the study proposes an integrated model for conflict-free residential environments. The framework emphasises spatial harmony, natural integration, personal territory, and emotional atmosphere, offering valuable insights for architects, psychologists, and urban planners seeking holistic design strategies for healthier living spaces.
