Life, Styled
Food and drink have a remarkable way of bringing people together—sparking conversation, encouraging connection, and creating the perfect backdrop for new ideas and lasting memories. In the heart of downtown Shelby, NC, you’ll find a local favorite that does just that: Newgrass Brewing Company.
This state-of-the-art microbrewery is more than just a place to enjoy a drink—it’s a vibrant gathering spot beloved by locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re catching up with friends or making new ones, Newgrass offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home.
Located just two blocks from Greenbrook Design and one block from the historic Court Square, Newgrass holds the distinction of being Cleveland County’s first microbrewery—a milestone we were proud to be part of. We were honored to contribute to the construction of this exciting addition to Shelby’s growing downtown scene and love seeing how it continues to foster community and creativity in our town
Farm-To-Table
Newgrass Brewing Company offers everything you could want in a modern brewery—craft beer, a farm-to-table kitchen, and live music every weekend—all wrapped in a uniquely welcoming atmosphere. It’s a place that feels both relaxed and refined, making it ideal for casual get-togethers with friends or a laid-back night out.
What sets Newgrass apart is its ability to deliver the quality and experience you’d expect from a big-city venue, all within the charm of a small town. From seasonal brews to thoughtfully sourced dishes and a stage filled with talented musicians, Newgrass brings a vibrant energy to Uptown Shelby that’s truly one of a kind. We’re fortunate to have such a standout destination just steps away from Greenbrook Design.
Preserving The Past
While Newgrass Brewery has only been open since 2015, it is full of charm, character, and history. It is dedicated to preserving the past, which is evident when you walk through their doors. Learn more about the history of the materials and Walker Woodworking’s journey to making Newgrass the beautiful destination it is.
Check out the Newgrass website, which has their craft beer list, menu, artist lineup, and the story behind this little brewery. They have participated in our First Fridays here at Greenbrook Design, and we look forward to having them join us again soon! To stay up to date, just visit our happenings page. We invite you to join us for a free sample of home-crafted beer while enjoying our hospitality. We hope to see you soon in Uptown Shelby. Don’t forget to stop by Greenbrook Design and say hello!
Uptown Shelby
You can visit this hidden gem along with many others in Uptown Shelby, which is just an hour from Charlotte, Asheville, Hickory, and Greenville, and just a few minutes from the Tryon Equestrian Center. Along with Newgrass, Uptown Shelby has other restaurants, shops, and destinations for your small town “Daycation”. So come eat, drink, shop, and be merry in the city of Pleasant Living!
Design trends are shifting, and people are looking to maximize space by combining rooms, so the laundry room has been built to meet this demand. A mudroom combined with a laundry room can be a great area. As the family enters the home, they can drop off any dirty clothing, eliminating any major messes. This is also a logical spot to have the dog feeding area or even the litter box, both of which prevent your guests from seeing the dirty side of your pets. A small pet bathing area can be added, making it convenient to wash the dog and then dry it with the towel in the washer. There are a few other combinations, including a pantry or bathroom. Be sure to consider what matters most to you and your family’s needs.
With more people spending extended time at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many have realized their living spaces could use an upgrade. While you might think you need to wait for a design center to reopen to begin your renovation, that’s no longer the case. Greenbrook Design now offers virtual design consultations, allowing you to start planning your beautiful and functional space without delay. From concept to execution, our team can guide you through the process remotely—ensuring your project stays on track and reflects your vision, all from the comfort and safety of your home.
Accessible and Universal Homes are sweeping the home design industry! People are catching on to the IMMENSE VALUE of a home designed to make life easier. With all the challenges that life brings, the way you live in your home doesn’t have to be one. The techniques of Accessible and Universal Design can create greater ease and comfort right into your daily life before potential challenges become an issue.
Why are mudrooms so popular? We all know the scenario: that once-beautiful foyer quickly becomes a catch-all for shoes, backpacks, coats, and more, creating clutter and chaos. Everyone wants to keep their home organized and visually appealing, but life can get messy. That’s where the mudroom comes in.
