Thanks for the suggestion. Its just that it require high cleaning maintenance...
Next time when I get another property, I'll consider wood finishing already...

If possible, I'm looking forward for simple and easy cleaning maintenance on this concern...
Currently as a temporarily solution, I'm wearing those home slippers bought from Jaya Jusco...Actually, I don't enjoy wearing home slippers...  sad.gif

Yes, wood flooring will feel warmer than tiles. However, wood flooring requires a bit more care (not as low maintenance as tiles).

Generally, most homes will have tiles for the ground floor and wood flooring upstairs. Or in some apartments I've seen, tiles for the lounge/dining/kitchen and wood flooring for the bedrooms.

Currently at level 17 .... then no wonder the tiles is so cold in the morning based on your general rule of thumb

At 17th floor, you're only about 55-60m above ground. So maybe around 0.5 deg C difference from the ground only. Not enough to explain that your tiles feel very cold. Or is your condo also located on high ground?

In other places do you also feel that tiles are very cold, or only in your present condo?

Generally, I wouldn't call tiles cold (at least not cold until uncomfortable to stand on). I would consider them as cooler.
