Materials to Create Moods
The next design consideration is to look at how materials can affect our mood. First we need to understand that everything surrounding us has an effect on our perception of the space. So when we look at hard materials such as ceramic tiles or natural stone, there is an automatic association to a more “public” space. Similarly, carpets and timber tones tend to create a more “homely” effect, but what is interesting is that too much of one kind of material creates monotony, and thus gives off too much hard, yang energy.

The secret is to balance these materials out by introducing a compatible material, or through the use of furniture and colours. Consider the two examples to the right here and at the bottom of the next page. The first living space (right) exhibits a very monotone effect where the timber flooring has created hardness with no sense of comfort. The second image on the next page illustrates how too many accents of the same material has its own drawbacks; the timber strips and ceiling patterns generate too much confusion as there is too much information for the mind to accept. In both cases, the inner appreciation for the space turns negative, which then translates into an erratic and confused state of mind.
