My general rule is that the floor and counter should co-ordinate with each other and should contrast with the cabinets. So if you want cherry cabinets (you don’t mention what shade the cabinets will be) I would suggest a floor and counter that are a lighter color than the cabinets.
If you check out photos of kitchens that have dark cabinets, counter and floor it all gets a bit dreary and dark. That might be the choice for a young bachelor who only uses the fridge and microwave, but most women want a lighter feel in the kitchen.
If you want to go with the Richlite counters I would suggest the Sage, Baguette or Hemp colors and co-ordinate the floor tile with the counter. A black floor will be a very high maintenance since it will show every crumb and piece of lint. Choose a faux slate or stone tile with a variety of colors including the cabinet and counter colors. This will give you a finished product that will stand the test of time and look warm and inviting.
Let me know what you narrow down your choices to and I will give you some final advice to let you know if you are on the right track before you make any commitments.

I would like to know about color organization so I really need your opinion and experience.

I loved the RICHLITE sample (for ‘green’ countertops) because it feels like smooth petrified wood and it needs NO maintanence and its so strong, it needs no under support (does not stain either).
I liked the REDSTONE color in the Richlite paperstone product (the other limited colors were Mountain green, black, and browns/yellowish)

I thought at first, the Mountain green color would look great on white or neutral color cabinets but I want to have cherry color cabinets or a darker color cabinets instead (tired of the white and neutrals).

Would the REDSTONE countertop be OK with the cherrywood cabinets? If that is good, can I use black slate floors? I used to love the multicolor slates but got tired of it when it started to look to ‘busy’ so I started to admire the green/blue Vermont or soft black slate floors (in large rectangle shapes, hate squares lately).

I have a feeling you would say “black” counters is the best for slate floor and cherrywood cabinets but if I select black, I’d rather have that beautiful Black Galaxy GRANITE with the gold/copper flecks….. and I do not want granite material (I hate the clinking sound when the glass or dishes hit the granite and they are easily shattered when it hits/falls on the granite counters).
The black Richlite didn’t appeal to me for some reason, so I’m hoping you’d say the REDSTONE would be good? The Redstone was called “Merlot” before they changed the name of the color.

Sorry about such a long message but I’m trying to convey my taste to you so that you can correct me in some way…

thanks
