AlcorOne designs, details and executes pooja rooms across South India—from compact apartment units to dedicated villa rooms—with coordinated joinery, stone, metalwork, lighting, ventilation and finish detailing. ## One category, three *practical formats.* The right format depends on available space, daily rituals, storage needs, ventilation and how prominently the pooja area should sit within the home. Reviewed by [Pradeep Kumar Vasadi](https://www.alcorone.com/about/), Principal — on-site execution and delivery. ### Pooja unit or alcove Wall-integrated or freestanding units for apartments, with deity platform, drawers, concealed storage, task lighting and cleanable finishes. ### Dedicated pooja room Full-height enclosure with doors or screens, internal shrine composition, storage, lighting, threshold and ventilation coordination. ### Custom architectural room Site-specific compositions using stone, timber, brass, patterned screens, ceiling details and specialist craftsmanship. ## Direction and placement, *the traditional way.* Vastu guidance varies by region and household tradition, but a few principles come up in almost every consultation. AlcorOne's design team checks these against your actual floor plan alongside your family's own preferences. ### Direction The northeast (Ishanya) corner is the most commonly preferred location for a pooja room; where that isn't available, a north- or east-facing wall is the usual fallback. Most guidance recommends facing east or north while praying, with the deity typically placed against the west or east wall. ### What to avoid A pooja room directly above, below or adjacent to a bathroom, staircase or bedroom is generally avoided, as is placement under a staircase or a structural beam. These constraints are checked against your floor plan during the scope review, not assumed from a template. ### Materials and threshold Timber (teak, sheesham) and light natural stone are traditional choices for shrine platforms and flooring; a raised threshold and a door or screen that can close off the space are common requests. Lighting is usually kept warm and layered rather than a single bright source. ## Executed across *different homes and markets.* These completed and proposed spaces show how the same category adapts to apartment constraints, villa scale and different material languages. ### Serene Sanctuary Hyderabad · Villa · Enclosed room ### Villa Residence Bengaluru · Villa · Integrated unit ### Rajendra Residence Vizag · Apartment · Brass detailing ### Aparna Zicon Hyderabad · Apartment · Minimal alcove ## Browse the design *catalogue.* 50 pooja room directions from AlcorOne's design library, grouped by format—each one adaptable in material, scale and finish to your room.

Share the location for a direct fit check. Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Vizag, Rajamahendravaram ## Questions we *hear most.* ### Can a pooja room be added without a full renovation? Yes — AlcorOne can execute a pooja room as a standalone scope within an existing home, or as part of a larger interior project. ### What information do you need to start? Room or alcove photographs, approximate dimensions, your city, and any directional or material preferences you already have. ### Do you handle lighting and ventilation? Yes — lighting design, ventilation and finish detailing are part of the standard scope alongside joinery and stone work. ### Which cities is this available in? Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Visakhapatnam and Rajamahendravaram, subject to a direct fit check for your site. ### How is a pooja room paid for if it is the only work? Projects start on a 20% deposit of the total contract value, adjusted against the final invoice. The balance is released against milestones tied to progress — material procurement, civil and carpentry completion, finishing and handover — and the exact milestone schedule is written into each project's payment schedule, because it moves with size, scope and site condition. Published rates are exclusive of GST. A single-room scope still runs against an itemised BOQ — carving, lighting and joinery are where the cost sits, and a lump sum hides which of the three you are paying for. ### How long does a custom pooja unit take? It depends on the joinery: a compact apartment unit and a dedicated villa room with carved work are not the same programme. The duration is confirmed in writing at BOQ stage once the design and material are settled. ### Can you build the whole home to Vastu, not just the pooja room? Within a limit worth stating plainly: AlcorOne is a fit-out contractor, not a Vastu consultant. We do not issue Vastu prescriptions or overrule a family's own guidance — we take the directions you or your consultant have already settled and build to them. Inside a finished apartment the decisions that are genuinely still open are the ones worth bringing to us: pooja room placement, where the northeast is the commonly preferred corner and a north or east wall the usual fallback; which wall a bed headboard sits against; hob and sink orientation within the kitchen's existing plumbing and exhaust positions; entrance treatment and shoe storage; and mirror placement. What a fit-out cannot move without structural work is the flat's entrance direction, the position of a toilet or the walls it shares, and window openings — those are decided at purchase, not at fit-out. Bring the directional list to BOQ stage. Introduced after carcass work has started, it becomes a variation with its own cost and timeline impact. --- Canonical page: https://www.alcorone.com/services/pooja-room-interiors/ AlcorOne Solutions — interior contracting across South India.
