It often happens in our practice that a client who has just bought an apartment turns to us for help, but in the process of getting acquainted with us we all understand that initially the apartment was chosen incorrectly and does not meet the requirements of the client at all.

To avoid this, our services include the selection of an apartment or house. Together with our vaastu specialists we give detailed recommendations on the choice, the location of the house and apartment, telling what you should pay attention to, what will be favorable and what should be avoided. Of course, specific solutions can be given only when all the wishes of the customer are known, but there are some basic points that will suit everyone.     

Bearing walls, the less of them in the apartment, the easier it will be to redesign the space. It is convenient when there are few load-bearing walls, or when they are represented by load-bearing columns. 

Pay attention to the natural lighting of the apartment, in the living room, kitchen and children's rooms good light is just necessary for comfortable rest and work. In the bedroom and other rooms it is less important.

Rectangular or square spaces are pleasant to live in, long elongated spaces, or trapezoidal spaces are uncomfortable.

Often in a commercial sketch of the apartment plan, the builder draws all the furniture and plumbing fixtures reduced, not respecting the scale and ergonomic norms. This is especially true for the bathrooms. The bathtub will definitely take you 20+ ft.sq., shower enclosure minimum 10+ sq.ft., for the toilet and sink it is better to lay 10+ sq.ft.
