Many of our clients live an hour or more away in the Charlotte metro area. This usually leads people to ask, “Why should I drive to Shelby when I can go somewhere closer?” We understand the reason behind the inquiry and want to share a few reasons why we believe that you will find value in taking the time to make the drive.

Discover why homeowners and designers from across the Carolinas make the drive to Shelby. At Greenbrook Design, our showroom offers an inspiring collection of custom kitchens, baths, and living spaces you won’t find anywhere else. From exclusive cabinetry lines to fully styled vignettes, every detail is designed to spark ideas and help you visualize what’s possible for your home. Paired with our expert design team and the charm of Shelby’s local shops and restaurants, your trip becomes more than a visit—it’s an experience worth the drive.

Enhancing Experiences: A Dual Encounter

Our Showroom at Greenbrook Design is only 2 miles away from our Walker Woodworking manufacturing facility. You will have the opportunity to tour the manufacturing facility to see where your cabinets will be made while you’re in town.

Our 5,000-square-foot showroom in uptown Shelby has everything you need to complete your cabinetry. We offer options for cabinetry at various investment levels, ensuring you can stay within your budget without compromising quality. We offer over 100 different doors and finishes to choose from, along with thousands of hardware options, including popular brands such as Top Knobs, Amerock, Emtek, and Schwab, among others.

What our clients have to say:

“After researching six custom cabinetry providers in and around Charlotte, NC, we chose Greenbrook Design and Walker Woodworking for all of the cabinetry needs for our house renovation. We were thoroughly impressed with the Walker’s professionalism, design assistance, wood quality, variety of door styles and accessories, physical plant organization and cleanliness, and their unbeatable prices.”

The drive time is not that much different.

If you have ever tried to drive anywhere in Charlotte or any other large city, you understand the frustration of being stuck in slow to almost standing still traffic, all to go a short distance! Here are just a few points to consider why a drive to Shelby is not so bad.

  • It’s no more time than driving to or from the Lake Norman area (and at least you are moving most of the time and not sitting still on 77!)
  • If you plan your trip after the morning rush hour and before the afternoon rush hour, it is less than an hour from the Myers Park area.
  • Our process is more efficient. Since we have all the products in the showroom and offer “live design”, we can accomplish a great deal with one trip to our showroom. Other showrooms that don’t provide real-time design can lead to multiple trips, and your project can drag out for weeks.

Many of our clients will tell us that they enjoyed the drive to Shelby because it was a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Plus, we have some of the world’s best BBQ at Red Bridges Barbecue Lodge, or maybe you prefer their rival Alston Bridges BBQ, yes, it is a local ‘battle of the BBQ.’ You can always find hidden treasures in a small town, so be sure to plan your trip with plenty of time to explore Uptown Shelby.  or maybe make plans to stay the weekend, we promise you will have a great experience, read here to learn more.

We offer a unique customer service.

To us, it is more than selling a product; it is about building a relationship with our clients. This is the foundation and philosophy upon which our company was built. Our clients matter to us and their specific needs are what drive us to create a design that is unique for their lifestyle. Our number one priority is to learn our clients, no one is the same and neither are their needs. Each client has something unique about them and that is what we want to cater to, to find that blend of styles that matches them. The experience we have gained over the years in home renovations, combined with our extensive knowledge of our products, is what sets our service apart. We understand what works and what doesn’t in a home, and we also know how to create a design that blends all your wants and needs into a perfect balance. Our clients always appreciate how we can take their ideas and bring them to life, that is our specialty and our calling.

Our products stand out from the rest.

There is a difference between going to Lowe’s and buying premade cabinets versus shopping with a company that can custom make your cabinets to suit your space and style. We also have the unique ability to use more than one cabinet line in your project, to help you stay within your budget. Our kitchen and bath designers excel at designing cabinets to meet your needs and your budget.

“There are tons of cabinet options, most of which use particle board in some areas. We wanted solid wood and quality construction.  Greenbrook Design is where we came up with the layout and design features. We also visited the shop of Walker Woodworking, seeing the attention to detail and quality in production confirmed that we made the correct choice. Quality and design were very important to us!”
Homeowner – F. Potocnik

We strive to offer the very best products available, a product that we can proudly stand behind. This requires us to invest ourselves personally into the process. When you visit our showroom, we can showcase the numerous options available for your cabinet selections, as well as the various lines we carry.  With our ability to mix and match our custom cabinets with semi-custom cabinets, we fit any budget and any space. We now have outdoor cabinetry in addition to our other cabinet lines.

We are proud to serve twelve counties, including but not limited to Cleveland, Mecklenburg, Buncombe, Catawba, Henderson, Polk, Iredell, Gaston, Rowan, York, Spartanburg, and Greenville. Stop by our showroom and let us give you a tour; we guarantee you will not be disappointed. So take a drive to Shelby and visit us, we promise you a warm welcome and a refreshing beverage. We are committed to helping you see your dream become a reality and will be with you every step of the way.

Viva Magenta Pantone Color of the Year 2023

Design Notes

Paint companies like Sherwin-Williams have already announced their amazing Color of the Year choice, Redend Point, which draws from nature’s calm color palette. Benjamin Moore’s choice of Raspberry Blush, though, is closer in shade to the color selection made by the one company everyone in the fashion world looks to, Pantone. Designers and manufacturers alike waited with eagerness to hear Pantone’s color of the year announcement, and for 2023, their choice was Viva Magenta, a color described as a “crimson red tone that presents a balance between warm and cool. This hybrid of red and pink is a reflection of our current world’s relationship of living in both a physical and digital world. More and more homeowners are learning to blend their work and home lifestyles, which have become deeply entwined over the last couple of years. We know that color is much more than a splash of paint on a wall or cabinet; it speaks a language all its own, something Pantone seems to grasp and express well. So what influence will 2023’s Viva Magenta have on us? Let’s explore the answers today.

The Value of Antique Shopping

Life, Styled

Homes are a collection of things we love, and sometimes those things can come from places outside the traditional sources, such as your typical home furnishings stores. Increasingly, designers and homeowners alike are discovering the benefits of antique stores. These places, often thought of as the last stop for items no one else wanted, have become a popular shopping stop for those who want to have something unique in their home and enjoy the thrill of “treasure hunting”. More and more design styles are also embracing vintage finds, seeking to blend them together to create something special, such as the grand millennial and mid-century modern styles. Millennials are also enjoying the freedom to branch out in their design choices, creating a home that is customized to their own personality. Antique shopping can be a wonderful way to uncover those special touches that can make all the difference in your home, so let’s explore how to get started and what to do with all of the treasures you find.

What are Mullion Cabinet Doors?

Design Notes

This is why we have created multiple door profile styles so that each of our clients can find the one that perfectly tells their story to everyone. At times, they are not able to pinpoint one that speaks to them, which is why we offer custom door styles as well. Several of our clients have opted for mullion cabinet doors, which always add a beautiful touch to their space.
