Abstrakt: Net-zero sustainable buildings are needed to protect the environment. The architects and building owners are trying to focus on utilizing sustainable and energy efficient methods to design the space of the future which in turn would contribute to the global net-zero effort. To achieve the above objective, the western thinking is facilitated with the ancient Eastern architectural perspectives such as Vaastu Shastra to build a sustainable and eco-friendly habitat. In this paper, a neural approach is used to predict the optimal layout for a particular design of a residential house followed by a fuzzy system to determine the Vaastu compliance score of the proposed design.
