The best location for the kitchen is the South-East corner of any building as per Vaastu Shastra but many a times due to scarcity of land in the urban life to have a kitchen in South-East may not be possible like if the entrance of the house is from east or South, then the kitchen may be shifted to the North - West corner of the house. In this situation the internal layout of the kitchen with the help of interior designing can be changed so as to follow the Vaastu.

• The cooking platform should be towards eastern sidewall of the kitchen, as good results can be achieved when one faces east while cooking.

• The sink should be in the North-East corner of the kitchen.
  

• The slope of the water flow should be from South-West towards North - East.

• The cylinder should be placed in the South-East corner.

• The Geyser should be installed either in the South - East corner or the South wall.

• The electronic gadgets should be placed on the Southern platform.

• The storage for all the food grains, utensils, the over head almirah should always be on the Southern and the western walls and not on the Northern and the Eastern walls.
