According to Vastu, the cosmos is composed of the five elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space. To create a peaceful atmosphere in the home, these factors must be balanced. The rightcolours, materials, and shapes should be used in each part of the house to balance the elements. For instance, adding earthy hues like brown or green in the houses southwest corner can assist balance the Earth element. A water feature or fish tank positioned in the north-east corner of the home can also assist balance the Water element.
