Tiles, ceramics, sea stone - moisture permeability???

[siamthai]

I am planning to lay flooring in the basement and therefore it's important for moisture permeation. I've heard that tiles (klinker) are suitable for this. The problem is that I can't find any tiles that I like. I have found suitable ceramic tiles (kakel) and pebbles. However, I suspect that these two materials are not suitable for basement floors. The ceramic tiles are glazed and stone probably can't let moisture through? Or do all these materials work so that the floor "breathes out" moisture through the joints? Is there anyone here who knows how it works?

River stone is perfect with slightly wider joints!!

Make sure to use a flexible grout for a more durable option.

are the joints that "breathe"

Unglazed tiles allow moisture to pass through.

Sea stones are perfect with slightly wider joints!!

Make sure to use a joint compound that is flexible, and you'll have a more durable option.

Just note that many types of "sea stones" require quite a bit of maintenance, and the joints often get "discolored" (change color) as moisture migrates through them.
