What the పశ్చిమ governs
West is Varuna’s direction, associated with gains that arrive late and with stability after effort. It takes weight comfortably, and it is one of the two directions the tradition is relaxed about for utilities.
The పశ్చిమ is guarded by వరుణ. The tradition places ముఖ్య శయనకక్ష, బచ్చోం కా కక్ష, స్నానఘర, సీఢ఼ీ here.

No. The tradition assumes you cannot move a kitchen or a staircase, which is why almost every placement rule comes with a remedy — usually a change within the room (where the hob sits, which way the bed faces, what is stored in a corner) rather than a change to the building.
