Extract from Evening Star newspaper 07 Feb 2008 QUOTE The 30 houses and 24 apartments which make up the Garden Village off Sycamore Drive are designed specifically to give their owners peace, prosperity and good health, based on the teachings promoting cosmic harmony. All of the homes are built so their main entrances face east because the designers say “the energy from the sun is at its greatest and most vital when rising and, thus bringing greatest benefits to the health, affluence and vitality of the occupants”. The designs are based on those of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda - architecture in line with natural law where the sun, moon and planets, poles and equator have a bearing on the setting and planning of buildings - and were endorsed by the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Explaining the project, MSV Homes' administrator Henry Wilson said: “There have been a number of individual homes built around the country on these principles but this is the first development like this and we hope to be able to do more in time. “Most of the homes are built around a central garden and the lay-out of the rooms and proportions of the rooms are all based on the Vedic principles for design.” END QUOTE
