Vastu Shastra, India’s ancient treatise is truly a gift to mankind. It is not simply a guide to constructing a structure and calling it home. It is about first creating a space in your heart and mind called home and then going ahead trying to fulfill your dreams. In doing so, equal emphasis was laid on all material matters, be it within or outside the home. Architects in Pune these days draw a lot of inspiration from Vaastu Shastra.

Our ancients were wise and never averse to creating wealth. They used the ways of nature to create wealth. Mentioned below are some tips from Vaastu Shastra for good fortune which if adhered, may go a long way in making you wealthy.

  • The swimming action of a fish mimics the flow of energy. And with positive energy comes wealth and well-being. Keep an aquarium full of healthy fish and see to it that these are maintained in good shape with water being cleaned and aerated at regular intervals.
  • The Front door of any house signified the status of the residents therein and is also a means to bring in wealth. Keep it well maintained and distinct from the surrounding doors so that the Goddess of Wealth enters the right door, your door!
  • If the mood fancies her, the Goddess may even use Windows. So as a welcoming sign, keep the windows of your house spotlessly clean and sparking. All of them as you never know her mood!
  • Expenses going through the roof?? Keep live plants in the toilet to prevent money-related energy flowing down the drain. Live plants have this great property of attracting, retaining and recycling energy.
  • Purple is the color of wealth according to Vaastu Shastra. Keep as many things in the house as possible covered in purple and place them in the south-east corner.
  • Long corridors help both air and energy flow. Longer the corridor fiercer the flow and more the risk of your investments going with the wind. This can be remedied by keeping plants on its path thus restricting easy flow.
  • Any place in the house, be it a wardrobe or a cupboard where valuables and related important documents are kept should ideally be located facing the east or north. Preferably north as it is the direction of Kumber, the god of wealth.
These by no means are the only tips which shall make you rich. Like we stated before, Vaastu Shastra is a whole Shastra or Science in creating spaces for wealth and well-being. And in all this talk of Vaastu Shastra and wealth creation, never forget the Architecture because it is the Architect ultimately who knows and understand the implications of every suggestion mentioned therein keeping in mind today’s world and the laws we live by. Some in Pune like SovereignArchitect in fact take Vaastu Shastra and its suggestions seriously with every efforts being made to try and incorporate as much of it as possible in these times.Happy homes, happy people, happy world !!!

Amplification of Interior Designing in Pune !!!

The Pune of the day thankfully still retains elements (though not all) of the words “Punya Nagari”!
Given its status not only within the country but outside the country, it is one place oozing confidence, money, style and most of all CLASS! A contributing factor is the proximity to Glitzy and Glamorous Mumbaiiii, the City of Dreamzzz! There is also this understated classiness of the Maharastian mentality which adds to the charm. They, as a community have this unstated charm about themselves which is just right and not overdone.

Pune thus is a happening place and happening bigggg time!! Industrialization on a massive, massive scale. This obviously means opulence increasingly visible in terms of glitzy and stylish buildings of every kind be it homes, offices or even factories! 

This penchant towards looking stylish is getting a further fillip from one set of people more than ready to lend a helping hand (if not both!!). Interior Decorators. Wonder why they are not called Exterior Decorators! The first thing you observe about any building are its exteriors which too in most cases is conceived by interior decorators!

From being a fad for the well-to-do, interior designing has come a long way and is now a full-fledged science in itself commanding the same respect and stature as Architects and Civil Engineers. They now sit on the same platform for discussion. 

In the past, the last thing before moving into a new- build was to do up the interiors with the objective of beautifying an existing structure. Most of the material used was the Interior Designer’s own creations + whatever little was available in the market. Most people into the trade were with an artistic inclination whether or not formally qualified.

Interior designer in Pune have come a full circle with some reputed names such as Sovereign Architects who in addition to being full-fledged architects are also equally Interior Decorators. Some of their creations makes you reflect only on the exterior i.e., what is visible and makes you forget that there are sciences like architecture and civil engineering as well which go into putting a construction in place!

Another interesting thing about interior designers in Pune is that it is not restricted to homes, offices and malls. Ever place that the eye can survey and where humans exist on a regular basis is now open to design tweaking including industrial sheds with all its heavy equipment and machinery. If it can be beautified, it will be beautified and you have helping hands like Sovereign Architects!

As regards raw materials for the trade, there is no dearth of the same with Pune itself mushrooming organizations from all four corners of the world setting up shop here. Exterior, Interior, floor, ceiling, walls… you name it and there are solu
tions available. If they are not, you dream it and there are people to make it a reality- yes, made to order!

Probably the only thing left now to beautify are the poor folks staying in those places!

Architects in Pune: We build dreams….and homes!

Some saint once said “All clients think that they are architects.”
Thankfully for most, this trend seems to be taking a beating what with increasing pressure to confirm to established standards with little room to use one’s half-baked ideas.

Pune, with its massive industrial economy has brought to fore one basic need which is anything but basic as far as numbers are concerned. Add to this the fact that people now have the means to live life King Size! The right setting then to involve professionals to help people live life king size!

Older buildings existing in Pune give you an idea of what went in the name of Architects in Pune till some time back. It can be summed-up in two words- Conservative and in most Shoddy.

Not anymore. With the advent of education, money and exposure to foreign lands courtesy in most cases the software industry and exports, a good number now will not settle for anything less than the best. We are certainly not talking of small measly 1 room or 1 BHKs anymore. Taking of these in fact is a complete infra-dig. Life now starts at 2 BHKs!

For way too long have we existed as second fiddles to the wealthy and mighty west. It is now time to ape them and then climb two rungs over them!

To start with, Puneites need 2 BHKs if not 3; then come Villas, Row houses, Penhouses (to let off pent-up feelings!!!)..….the list seems endless and the demand growing fast.

To cater to this unbridled demand are various denominations of builders, architects, developers etc., etc., etc., equally hell bent upon thrusting down ones throat stuff that is anything but palatable.

What then is the perfect recipe to get the perfect dream abode in Pune?
Get hold of a resourceful Architect. Or more precisely, an architectural firm which takes care of all your wants and needs and gives you the best for your money’s worth including in some cases, interior designing.

The trend as far as some of Pune’s prestigious real-estate names go include in most cases a Developer-cum-Architect-cum-Interior Design firm which give you a one-stop, single-window solution from ground-up to your dream mansion. You open your heart and purse-string and voila! A spanking new creation, your own mansion!

These firms specialize in all kinds of constructions be it homes (mansions, row houses, etc., etc.,) or large sized offices or commercial establishments. Sovereign Architects of Pune are one such example of a one-stop solution provider.
