Hi Deb-I still love the Brazilian cherry. As an architectural designer in Miami Beach I started putting these floors in back in the late 90's. They contrast beautifully with our sun bleached white walls and even in the highrise condos where we have floor to ceiling glass walls. They warm up the space no matter where installed.

As Marco says you need to have the right color paint to go with Brazilian cherry floors...they are gorgeous but the wrong color paint detracts from them...white or vanilla in my experience look best for wall contrast, Debbie.  Miss mine!

Good morning Debbie,

Excellent information and tips on difference in flooring. You are right to advise waiting to put those area rugs down..let the wood get some light on it and let the darkening process begin!!

Hello Debbie - I love the Brazilian Cherry much better than the darker woods.  It blends with all types of funishing.

Debbie~ before you install a new floor, you should know what you're installing (that's where YOU come in) If I ever install new flooring I will call you for advice before I start....& btw: SUGGESTED
