In Reply to: Re: What color hardwood floor with natural maple cabinets? posted by art on February 16, 19101 at 12:52:17:
: : : I'm building a house and have my heart set on natural maple cabinets. I want hardwood flooring - but I'm not sure what color I should get. Natural Oak was my first choice, but that doesn't match with the maple. I'm concerned natural maple floor & cabinets will blend too much (be drab), I am considering a butterscotch type oak floor with this. The countertop will be a sort of green leave type blend (Formica green leaves). Can you provide some ideas?
: : : Thanks!

: There are a cuople of darker stains available in Maple Hardwood that would go well with your cabinets. Oak should not be used with Maple in my opinion - stick to the same texture and go darker.

We just installed maple cabinets. Installed Formica countertop in Colorado slate. Had Formica laminate floor done in Colorado slate to match. Looks awesome !
