We all build our house to have a comfortable and progressive life. This is the primary objective of building a house. But when we get down to planning, we provide for all rooms, except Store. Store is crucial for attaining our aim of building the house, but due to space constraints we end up sacrificing this very important part of the house.
A well-stocked Store is the sign of a progressive and comfortable life we should not neglect it.
Necessity & Importance of Store
It is always advisable to have a reasonable sized space for the Store. Our house has lots of stuff which needs to be stored and in absence of a Store this stuff is kept all over the house.
Many a times the stuff is kept on the roof terrace which again leads to bad Vaastu effects. Provision of a Store is always auspicious in the house. Many times a Store is provided but it has no natural light and ventilation, which leads to the stored material getting deteriorated and things get infested with insects and rodents.
Directions & their Usages
- North-East Corner: The North East corner of the Store should have an earthen pot filled with water.
- North-West Corner: The things for regular consumption can be kept in the North West corner of the store.
- South-East Corner: Ghee, cooking oils and gas cylinders can be kept in the South East corner of the store.
- South-West Corner: We can keep the years supplies in the South West corner
Top 5 Vastu Tips for Store
- Direction: The Store can be planned in the South or West directions of the house.
- Ventilation: The Store should be well ventilated and should be regularly cleaned.
- Door Type: It should preferably have a double shutter door as it would take up less space.
- Interior Colour: The Store should be painted in white, yellow or blue colour.
- Operating Timings: We should avoid taking out anything from the store in the evenings.
Maintenance Tips
Maintaining the Store in good condition is very essential to the well-being of the inhabitants. Other important things to be remembered are-
- The arrangement of things in a Store should be such that anyone in the house can go and take the things from there.
- The things should be neatly packed, stacked and labelled if necessary so that no time is wasted in searching for anything.
My View
The Store is as important part of the house as any other room. It should be a live space instead of being thought of as a dead Store. We should always try to have space in our house for this as this is directly linked to the wellbeing of all the inhabitants
