Vastu verifies to locate staircase of the building in the South or West direction. Staircase is a heavy structure; hence it should be located in negative zones like the South or the West. The staircase in northern or eastern part of house may give adverse effects. The stairs should rise from the East to West or from the North to South. The staircase should not be in the center of the house. Avoid staircase in northeast direction also. 

Here are some Do’s and Don’ts for functional staircase.

DO’S

• Make staircase of the house in southern or western part of the house as these directions are heavy.
• Build staircase in southeast in east, northwest in north, southwest in west and southwest in south if the staircase is external.
• Arise the stairs from the East to West or from the North to South and a turn can be taken to any other side due to paucity of space.  
• Make the number of stairs odd. It should not end with zero. The number of risers should be such odd numbers that if divided by 3, the remainder is always 2. 
• Paint staircase in light colors. Avoid red and black color.  
• Repair broken stairs immediately otherwise it may cause accidents or mental tension due to clashes.

DON’TS

• Avoid staircase in northeast of the house and in center of the house as it will cause loss of wealth. The staircase in any other corner reduces loss.
• Do not make staircase circular as it may cause ill effects on health.   
• Do not build any room such as kitchen, bathroom and ‘Pooja’ room under staircase. However it can be used for storage. 
• Do not use common staircase for going upstairs and basement.
