Principle
Anti-Element Colours Matter Only When the Whole Room Is That Colour
A colour counts as an anti-element only when the entire room or zone is done in it; a small item of about 10 percent of the volume creates no dosh.

Interior Vastu: Customised Vastu Balancing Planets, Forces and Elements
Interior vastu is customised vastu: arranging and decorating the inside of a home, office, factory, temple, school or hospital according to the particular owner's horoscope, so that the nine planets, the three forces and the five elements are balanced for that person.
What it does
To control and uplift the owner's emotions through the building and help them achieve a specific goal such as education, business success or peace.
Where
Whole building: home, office, factory, temple, school, college, hospital or industry
Cautions
- An interior done without considering the owner's planets and element can undo an otherwise correct vastu
Explanation and notes
The three forces are gravitational force, the magnetic field and sun rays. The nine planets are Surya, Chandra, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani, Rahu and Ketu; they cannot be held in the hand, but their locations can be identified in the house and balanced. Every person is dominated by one element, decided by the time of birth, and the interior should give that element priority. A working definition: build and arrange the building so that the emotions of the grih swami (owner) are controlled through the structure and its interior. Interior is done not only for beauty and maximum utilisation but to use the maximum energy of the universe, balance the five elements, control particular emotions and achieve a particular goal. Just as a bride dresses differently from a guest, each business gets an interior designed for its own goal. The four principles taught are co-relation of elements, orientation and interior according to planets, effect of gravitational force on interior objects, and physical property of materials. Vastu is the art of orderly living, not a science of demolition: colour changes your complexion (rangat), shape raises your glory (shaan) and symbols bring prosperity, mostly without breaking anything.
