Where should you install the idol or picture of deity in the temple or puja room in your house?

As per the principles of Vastu Shastra, one should place the idol and picture of any goddess and deity at the wall on the east or north side of the puja room. It is suggested to never make the idol or picture of God to face towards the north. As in that situation, the worshipper will face towards the south which is not considered an auspicious direction for worshipping. South direction is the direction of yama-the Lord of death and hence should be avoided while worshipping or meditating. 

One should also never build the puja room in the south direction. Always remember that God's idols should never be placed on the ground, rather they should be kept on a wooden platform at a height. It is very important to maintain sanctity in the place of worship and it should be kept neat and clean with minimum disturbances from any means. It is desirable to keep the place scented with aroma of incense sticks or otherwise.
