Uptown & Undercover
Making the decision to open our own showroom was not done overnight. It began as the answer to a need for our clients. They needed a place where they could come and explore the possibilities that awaited them for their home renovation. It was important to our owners, Travis and Stacey Walker, that their clients could see and feel the products, enhancing their design experience. As the idea became a reality, the Walkers realized the added benefit of having more than just cabinets featured in the showroom. Greenbrook Design is proud to be an authorized dealer for not just four lines of cabinetry but multiple home furnishings and decor companies like Europe 2 You and Moe’s. Get a peek inside the showroom here and listen to Stacey share her vision of the showroom.

Fewer Surprises
Buying something without seeing it can definitely have its downsides, which is why we always like to have our design meetings hosted in the showroom. We make it a point to take you on a walk through our 5,000 square foot facility and introduce you to the possibilities for your home. When you can walk through, touch, and see the product, you can have a better understanding of what to expect. Some of the things you will see in our showroom include:
- Wood samples: Walnut, cherry, alder, and oak are just some of the samples we have available. It always helps the selection process when you can hold a piece of the wood in your hand, place it next to different color samples, tile, flooring, and hardware, and look at it in natural light.
- Hardware: From pulls to knobs, brass to polished nickel, comparing different sizes and materials is a great asset when choosing hardware. Size is not always easy to envision, so holding it in your hand and holding it against a full-size cabinet display is a great benefit.
- Door styles: Everyone has a style that speaks to them and that they prefer, but it helps when you can see your options right in front of you. We have a large selection of door styles in multiple wood species, stains, and colors.
- Countertops: No kitchen or bathroom is complete without one, but sometimes it can be hard to know which one will work best. Sometimes, several options are very similar, but having the opportunity to lay them side by side means you can examine them closely before making your final decision.
Putting it all together is something our clients often enjoy doing. Having the chance to put your hardware next to your cabinet door style, along with your countertop choice, means you can get the whole picture.
See The Vision
During the design meeting, as our clients are working through some of the options, sizes, and layouts they want for their home, it is not uncommon for them to ask if we have something they can look at that will help them see the vision better. We have multiple areas in our showroom that allow them to get a true feeling for what a space can look like, including a laundry room, living room, walk-in closet, fully working kitchen, and even a drop zone. These areas are meant to give our clients the chance to walk through a space that allows them to experience the size and layout. It is extremely helpful to see the actual size of one of our kitchen islands, or how tall the standard upper cabinet size is compared to ones that extend to the ceiling. The usual width between an island and the kitchen perimeter, or what a work triangle looks like, is one of the other benefits of walking through our main kitchen display. We also have several other unique features that are shown in our kitchen, including paneled appliances, trash-can and spice pull-outs, a lazy susan, a built-in microwave, under-cabinet lighting, and a Galley Workstation sink. Clients love looking at these helpful and innovative features because they can more easily envision them in their own home and decide if they will work for them.

Walker WoodworkingDesign 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.
