Where architecture, energy, and equity agree.
Under the Lemon Tree offers Silicon Valley’s only architect-led Vaastu Shastra and Feng Shui advisory for home buyers and sellers. Led by Ana Mernik Bohra — Carnegie Mellon-trained architect and licensed California real estate advisor — the practice evaluates a home’s entry orientation, zone placement, kitchen position, and energy flow alongside its structure, market value, and resale trajectory.
What a Vaastu evaluation includes
A full directional and zone read of the property, expressed as a Bay Area compliance percentile. Understand how this home compares to the housing stock you’re actually choosing from, not an abstract ideal.
Diagnosis before prescription: what the current condition is, how it affects the people living there, and which remedies are genuinely actionable — tiered by what you can do today, at move-in, and someday.
The reframe most consultants miss: a bedroom in an inauspicious zone can become the home’s highest-value room as a meditation room, study, or studio.
Where Vaastu and architecture agree, and how we navigate it when they conflict, for clients who care about both.
A significant share of Silicon Valley buyers quietly evaluate the Vaastu before they offer. Most agents can’t help them.
We can — and for sellers, we can position a compliant home to the exact buyer pool that will pay for it.
