Room by Room
Study & Children's Room
Spaces for learning and focus, with good, glare-free daylight.
Traditional Vastu guidance
- The west, north-west or east suits children's rooms; the study table faces north or east.
- Keep books and the desk in the north-east part of the room, and avoid sitting with your back to the door.
Practical & building science
- North light is the best working light — even, cool and glare-free. Place the desk so light comes from the side, not from directly behind (shadows) or in front (glare).
- Avoid desks facing a west window without shading.
- Daylight and outdoor views are associated with lower eye strain and better wellbeing.
