First, some background
Historically speaking, wooden flooring has always been more widespread in countries with cooler climates. Wood bearing warm features itself, it works extremely well in spaces during the colder seasons, e.g., fall and winter.
Stone on the contrary has traditionally always been more popular in places with warmer climates, naturally maintaining a lower room temperature.
Nowadays, cultures have merged and mixed. Thanks to technological innovation, climate control is no longer defined by the floor type, liberating interior designers towards a freer material palette. One outcome is that both materials can very well be used in one and the same house, each selected for its specific qualities. Sustainably executing a combination of wood and stone in a space demands detailed planning.
