HpS - ASA --- I hope we can meet you when we visit Mexico. Of course you can look on the internet. There is one devotee in Radha-desa whom you might know, Mahaprabhu Das, from Uraguay who has published a big book recently.
Other than that what I know is the great classic, "Vastu-sastra" by D. N. Shukla. The second volume is especially about Alankrta, ornaments in Vastu. We read the first in detail but only glanced at the second.
Look for more on Vastu.
