I never specifically asked the ID or contractor to put them hori or verti, they automatically install them vertically. Think of that, it will look a bit weird to install tile horizontally. But maybe in certain area of wall, it will make the room look a bit bigger, especially if the material is light in color,

I lived in landed property for 24 years, and now I live in level 12. The dense of dust is not so much different. But I use to have some plants and big front yard (lawn) before my entrance, maybe dense tea box can help to filter dust, dirt, and noise from street into your house.

Hi Luohan, Have you installed your new flooring? Hope it runs well and perform better than before,

I also think 1cm is too wide, and the finishing looks sloppy Internal humidity usually higher than outside,especially close to wet area (bathroom and kitchen, but still, 1 cm gap with that finishing is too much.. Usually people put skirting to close the gap and make the joint between the wall and floor looks nice and tidy

Hi, For works such that, you can engaged a contractor if you already have a specific and detail idea how it is gonna look like, but if you still searching idea, better to engaged architect, I think it is quite a tricky job too, img828.imageshack.us/img828/8306/sgv1.th.jpg

I think the second option will make your room is wider and you can put more stuffs (i love more space to put stuffs...), and if you put them as a walk in wardrobe, I think the wardrobe also not big enough for you to "walk in".....

Hi Lubber Duckie, Agree with morganwu, there are many other options beside chengal and timber, Have you considered strand woven bamboo? it finishings just like natural wood and teak color, But it is moisture and scratch resistant, and also low VOC (low toxicity), the price is $16psf for indoor flooring and $24psf

Agree with nimm12, anyway glossy parquet looks like plastic, loss all the natural sense...
