When dealing with cherry-colored cupboards, cherry-colored hardwood flooring can create a streamlined effect. While many people hesitate to do so, matching the color of your floor with the color of your cupboards can add a dramatic effect to any kitchen space. If you can find a cherry flooring that matches your cupboard, put the two next to each other to see how they look together. If it appeals to your eye, go for it.

On the Other: It's Difficult to Match Exactly

Go with a lighter or darker wood if you find it difficult to match the cherry color of your cabinets exactly. If the colors are slightly off, your kitchen will look mismatched. A lighter natural oak or a darker stained wood floor are also good options for those who want to bring some contrast into their kitchen.

Bottom Line

The color of hardwood flooring that goes best with cherry cupboards is a matter of opinion. Many home improvement stores have computer software available where customers can play around with different shades of paint or wood stain to find the perfect combination for their taste. Software like this can also be found online. Play around with different combinations and select the one that best fits the look you are going for.
