Dear Kaushal,

1. In my opinion, if possible, especially the common areas, create a `bright' environment.

2. In the past, I try to relate the floor tiles more towards the 5 elements i.e. see if can match the house.

3. But this is very difficult to do. For example, do we consider the House element and match it with the house (flooring) or to the various individuals living in the house?

It is difficult to find a `binding' element for more than two persons.

4. Thus nowadays, I would consider it more practical to look at if from the Yin and Yang Concept.

5. Here, in the common areas e.g. living room etc.. choose a floor tile that looks clean and bright. Avoid, black tiles unless it acts as a decorative side pattern etc..

6. The living room should be bright. Thus it should be complimented with pastel colours on the walls. If undecided, white walls and ceilings are the norm.

7. In my country, many homes use paraquet floor tiles in the bedroom i.e. small pieces of blocks of wood, joined together and lacquerd.

8. Here the floor tiles is either brownish giving more warmth and making the room more yin.

9. The Chinese believe that bedrooms should have less conductive floor tiles e.g. when you step on it, it does not suddenly feel cold (especially if one just wakes up from sleep) like marble, or homogenous tiles.

The alternative for some is carpets. But, again, it depends on your taste, especially past experience with it and considerations like cleaning...

10. Thus, wood based tiles are more suited here.

11. The only consideration, is if one stays in a landed property and termites need to be controlled, then the choice would be to use ceramic, marble titles.

12. Generally, when choosing floor tiles it is best that all family members staying in the house gets to (if possible) provide their comments and inputs to enable you to make a `final decision'

Warmest Regards,
Cecil

It is good to use
