If you have the same color for both it'll be like walking into a brown void and you'll get bored of it really quick!

Try a lighter colored cabinet (paint them with malemine paint, sorry don't know the right spelling) if you love the flooring you want to buy. That's what we did, it looks great and is washable.

...or go with a darker floor. Contrasting colors opens the door for more accent colors and flexibility. More eye appealing too.

Have fun.

you should have a contrast if you are doing wood floors in your kitchen. So cupborads should be much darker than floors or floors much darker then cupboards.
