I am planning to go for white tiles . I live in a place where there is a lot of light (near the equator) . Will white be good or should I go for little darker colors (since white reflects a lot of light) ?
edit : This is not a question to choose color, but to understand light vs dark .

Like you say, brighter tiles make the room brighter (and apparently "larger"). Darker make it... darker and smaller. The "brightness" also depends on window size and orientation (relative to what direction the sun shines from) and room size.
You need to balance whatever is your taste with all these factors. The rest is subjective. Some people like darker rooms even if they're small, others prefer to make them as bright and apparently large as possible at all times.
