What should be the kitchen colour
According to Vastu, colours like orange, yellow and green work well for a kitchen. Astrologer and Vastu Consultant Rosie Jasrotia points out that as per Vastu, the kitchen’s wall colours should not be too dark. So it’s best to avoid dark grey, brown and black colours for the kitchen as they can destroy the positive vibes. Some experts say that black walls can be depressing and can lead to financial losses while a very dark blue colour for the kitchen is considered unstable. Grey can also lead to gloominess and depression.

– Washbasins and cooking ranges, which include the gas cylinder and oven, should never be kept on the same platform or parallel to each other in the kitchen. Fire and water are opposing elements, thereby they can have a negative impact on a family member’s behaviour, if not placed in the right way.
– Washbasins, washing machines, water pipes, and the kitchen drain should be in the north or northeast direction inside the kitchen. If a balance is maintained with respect to water, you will prosper in terms of wealth and health.
– The refrigerator should be positioned in the southwest direction to help you overcome obstacles in life.
– Storage of grains and other stock items should be done in the southwest direction of the kitchen as it invites good luck and prosperity.
