Hardwood floors

Should you install the first floor hardwood going all in the same
direction? Hallway, Livingroom, Kitchen and Familyroom.

Not necessarily, rather depends upon the relationship of one room to
another.
Generally, it is laid with the length of a particular room but if, for
example, a dining room is not a true separate space but merely defined by
half walls - or if the opening is large - and laying the long way would
result in the boards being perpendicular to those in the LR it would
probably look best if the DR were treated as an extension of the LR floor.

I've never heard of or seen it installed any way other than
perpindicular to the floor joists.
