Dear Anon,

Havingred roof tilesis acceptable. As it is close to the orange or clay tiles we commonly see on a roof.

When we have a red roof tiles, it does not really mean that the roof is totally considered as a fire house. This is because of other interactions e.g. the colour of the exterior walls.

For example, if the colours of the exterior walls are white:

Then under the destructive cycle of the Five elements concept,white = metal element. And here, fire is used to destroy fire. The end result is the production of "wealth."

Thus,it is acceptable to have red roof with white exterior.

In a second example, what happens if the exterior walls are cream or beige or yellow? These colours cream, beige or yellow = earth element.

Here, it is equally acceptable. Since under the Five elements concept, fire helps to fuel earth. Thus a harmonious combination.

If you can my point, generally, the roof tiles should interact with the exterior walls. Thus another harmonious set of colours are Green exterior walls with Red roof. = OK or acceptable.

But if the exterior of the house (walls)are painted blue, then the roof should not be red. A total mismatch.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
