An illuminated gopuram, floral jali and a layered lotus Om give this upright mandir a traditional silhouette. A hidden sitting stand and lower cabinet keep both worship and storage within the same composition.
๐ก A place for it in the room
Try the sitting arrangement with a family member in position before deciding where the cabinet should open. A seat that is useful during prayer also needs a clear route when it is drawn out or put away.
๐ช Work from the prayer position
A hidden sitting stand only helps if it can be brought into use comfortably. Mark its movement in the room plan along with the nearest doorway and cabinet. Try the view of the lotus Om from that position. The family can then agree how the stand, lower storage and gopuram should work together in the chosen room.
Keep the flower in the composition. Real flowers can sit comfortably beside a lotus design if their placement is considered. A small arrangement towards a lower edge leaves the carved flower legible. Look at the composition from the family's usual prayer position, where a vase or garland may appear much taller than it does in a front elevation.
๐ Compare another design
The lotus Om mandir with a sitting stand also combines seating and enclosed storage. Here the hidden stand sits beneath a gopuram, floral jali and layered lotus Om. Mark the deployed stand on the room drawing for each design, including the route to the cupboards. A seat that works during prayer must also move comfortably between uses without displacing the articles kept near the altar.
โ Before choosing this design
โ Check the stand when drawn out and when stored.
โ Keep the illuminated gopuram visible above the floral jali.
