Abstract: There are architecture theories spanning a wide range of subject, such as vásthuvidyá business and monastery. It is necessary to determine the direction for planning the interior design which is one of the main components of architecture. When planning a house, the components that should be designed under the each direction are mention in vásthuvidyá references .The components that should be designed and that should not be designed in the North East direction, which is considered as the universal energy are evident. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine the influence of North East direction then designing a house and how it affects the inhabitants. After calculating the lengths and the widths of 10 selected houses, directions are determined using the compass to find the centre of the house. Then it’s determined which compartment of the house is created towards the North East and study how the vásthuvidyá references reveal the results by creating that compartment in the North East .Then discus which residence about it to determine the authenticity or falsity of prevailing preferences .Then it is clearly identified that whether the strength of North East direction influences the residence when designing the interior component of the house. Eventually the test assume that it creates negative effects for residents due to the decreasement of universal energy by designing kitchen and bathroom towards north east direction at the same time it creates good effects by designing veranda, shrine room and study room towards North East
