Dear Sneha, Its better to keep the things simple. The very obvious two locations i find suitable is either in kitchen or in living. In both cases you will be facing east which is good. Opt 1- As you already have a great counter here, you can have a big puja cabinet Here. Pros- your puja area is isolated from guest areas. Opt 2- This is short of empty wall here, so you can merge the tv cabinet and puja cabinet as per theme. Pros- your puja area is a part of your great room and will add the positive energy to overall ambience. I don't find any other good place in your layout. Hope this will help you a bit. :)

The doorway can be a little taller than usual, say 8'-0" instead of the usual 7'-0", but the ceiling can be normal 9'-6" to 10'-0". There are some cases when the pooja space is located on the ground floor and the ceiling is double height and extends all the way to the upper floor. It gives you a chance to use decorative elements through the entire height of wall, and give the pooja area the pride of place and a grander look

Hello there @ Pravin, There's is already a designated location in the plan marked by the swastika. If you want to incorporate seamlessly into a furniture, try making a bookrack cum Pooja shelf/ Pooja cupboard with cnc cut jaalis and wooden framed boxes for book storage.

Madhu , It is probably one in a thousand balconies that can boast of that kind of view, not sure who would have recommended enclosing that space. What's done is done. Temple location is usually decided using vastu principles. If you have to use that window we would recommend treat that adjoining wall similarly so that it looks larger as a good backdrop.
