Take several planks of the flooring you purchased (more is better). Lay the planks next to the cabinetry and consider how much natural light floods into the space, and also consider if the coloration and tone of the flooring you purchased coordinates with the cabinetry grain, paint color, counter top material and back splash material. I hope this helps!
