Where should the Staircase be, according to Vastu?

Vastu places the staircase ideally in the South-West, South, and West. North-West and South-East are acceptable alternatives. Placing it in the North-East, Center (Brahmasthan), North, and East is considered inauspicious.

Why

A staircase is heavy, descending mass; it belongs to the South/West/South-West and must avoid the North-East and the center.

Already built that way?

Move the staircase to the South-West; ensure it turns clockwise while ascending.
