always, very, very rarely is it not possible . And have never found by doing so compromises the wall setting out, if it does then would rather see joints lined up.
as far as I am concerned, anyone who doesn't line floor and wall up should be first against the wall come the revolution. :)
You're very opinionated aren't you

Personally I just leave it up to my customer, I give them a few layout options and let them choose the one that best suits there eye, after all it doesn't really matter what I think it should look like. It is there job, there house, there opinion, there money.

Ask the customer!
If architects and designers can't get it right what chance have customers. If you are a professional tiler then they are paying you to do it right and what the member from Essex is stating is the correct way - line up walls with floor joints where possible. Look at his portfolio of work and you will see quality and as a trusted advisor his opinion should be considered, and not derided by one line comments without also expressing an opinion on the issue.
Set a room up from the door.:)
