Ever heard someone say, "Don’t keep the bed in that direction, it’s not Vastu-friendly"?
And you’re just sitting there thinking— “Yaar, furniture mein bhi Vastu hota hai?”
Well, yes. Turns out, Vastu Shastra isn’t just about architecture, it also plays a role in the kind of furniture we place in our homes — especially wooden furniture.
If you believe in positive energy, calmness, and just a good flow of vibes around the house… then this is definitely something you’ll enjoy learning about.
Why Wooden Furniture in Vastu?
First things first — wood is considered a natural element. In Vastu, wood is associated with the Earth element and brings grounding energy. That’s why traditionally, you’ll see most Indian homes (especially older ones) filled with solid wood beds, wardrobes, and even wooden swings.
Also, unlike plastic or metal, wood doesn’t block energy flow. It’s warm, breathable, and blends well with natural surroundings. Basically, Vastu approved.
Bedroom Furniture – What’s Best According to Vastu?
Let’s start with the room where we spend 8 hours (hopefully) every night.
✅ Best:
-
Sheesham or Teak wood beds – Strong, stable, and long-lasting.
-
Wooden wardrobes – Especially on the south or west wall.
-
Use minimal metal or glass in bedroom furniture. Wood is better for calm vibes.
❌ Avoid:
-
Beds with storage full of clutter (negative energy!)
-
Sleeping with your head in the north direction
-
Metal or iron beds (cold, unwelcoming energy)
Tip: Try our solid Sheesham wood beds – they’re vastu-aligned and honestly, they last forever.
Living Room Furniture – What Works?
This is where all the “aunty-uncles” come, right? You want your living space to feel welcoming and balanced.
✅ Best:
-
Solid wooden sofa sets (Upholstered is okay, but frame should be wood)
-
Wooden center tables – especially round or square ones
-
Keep sofas along south or west walls for stability and support
❌ Avoid:
-
Glass tables with sharp edges – it breaks energy flow
-
Overcrowding – leave space for chi (energy) to move
Want ideas? We have a cool range of wooden center tables and sofa sets that are aesthetic + vastu-smart.
Dining Room Furniture – Vastu Says…
According to Vastu, the dining area should bring families together, so wood is a must.
✅ Best:
-
Wooden dining table, ideally round or rectangular
-
Place in the west, east, or north direction
-
Use warm wood tones like walnut, teak, or Sheesham
❌ Avoid:
-
Metal or plastic chairs – they feel cold and create disconnect
-
Dining facing toilets or staircases – not great for energy
Bonus Tips: Wood Type and Placement as per Vastu
-
Sheesham Wood – Earthy, strong, and very vastu-positive
-
Teak Wood – Royal, stable, good for master bedrooms
-
Mango Wood – Affordable but make sure it’s polished properly
-
Dark wood (like walnut) – Ideal for grounding in busy areas
-
Light wood (like pine) – Can be used in prayer rooms or study corners
Also:
-
Keep corners clutter-free
-
Don’t place heavy wooden furniture in northeast direction
-
Always maintain symmetry – two side tables, even number of chairs, etc.
So, Which Wooden Furniture Is Vastu-Approved?
If you ask me, go for solid wood pieces like:
-
Beds made of Sheesham
-
Wooden wardrobes in darker tones
-
Solid center tables and sofa sets with balanced shapes
-
Trunk boxes (they store + add vintage charm)
-
Wooden swings in your balcony or garden — Vastu loves movement with flow

Final Thoughts
Look, Vastu is not just about superstition — it’s more about balance, flow, and harmony. And wooden furniture, being close to nature, naturally supports that.
So next time you’re picking a bed or a center table, don’t just think “yeh sundar hai” — also ask, “yeh sahi direction mein jaayega?”
And most importantly — keep your space clean and intentional. That’s half the battle won.
