Cool Floors: Stone Slabs, Terrazzo, and Dark Wood

A cool-chosen floor. Public spaces feature large grey flagstones or terrazzo, with surfaces worn smooth and slightly concave from foot traffic, feeling cool to the touch; bedrooms and upstairs areas have wide dark hardwood floors. The floor is mostly bare, with only a thin jute or woven rug placed in seating areas, smaller than the perimeter formed by the furniture. Avoid: covering the floor with thick carpets, using tiles and plastic flooring, mixing too many flooring materials in different areas, allowing the rug's color and pattern to be too striking.

一片為了涼而選的地面。公共空間是大塊的灰色石板或水磨石,表面被走得光滑微凹,踩起來是涼的;臥室與樓上是寬版的深色硬木地板。地面大部分裸露,只在座位區鋪一張薄的黃麻或編織地毯,尺寸小於家具圍成的範圍。避免:鋪滿厚地毯、使用磁磚與塑膠地板、在不同區域混用太多地坪材質、讓地毯的顏色與圖案搶眼。
