Life, Styled
Wanting the custom kitchen of your dreams can be overwhelming and isn’t always budget-friendly. However, an easy, cost-effective way to have the kitchen of your dreams is closer to your grasp than you think.
What Is Mix & Match Cabinets?
Semi-custom cabinet lines are a great solution for achieving a beautiful, functional kitchen while staying mindful of your budget. However, they may not always offer the flexibility or unique features your dream space requires—especially if you envision a custom range hood, elaborate island, or other standout design elements.
At Greenbrook Design, we specialize in blending cabinetry lines within a single design. This approach allows us to offer you the best of both worlds: the cost efficiency of semi-custom options, paired with the fully custom touches that make your space truly one of a kind. By thoughtfully mixing lines, we can meet your design goals without compromising on style, function, or budget.
Creative Budget Friendly Solutions
One of our most effective design solutions at Greenbrook Design is to pair a semi-custom kitchen perimeter with a fully custom island and range hood. This approach offers the best of both worlds—allowing you to stay within budget while still achieving a high-end, personalized look.
By using semi-custom cabinetry for the perimeter, you save significantly without sacrificing style or quality. These cabinets are designed to look custom, with beautiful finishes and thoughtful details. We then elevate the space with a custom island, complete with all the features and functional upgrades you can imagine, and a show-stopping custom hood—both tailored to your exact specifications.
With the freedom to choose any paint or stain color, the result is a cohesive, magazine-worthy kitchen that reflects your personal style and meets every one of your #kitchengoals
Staying On Budget
Staying on budget is usually at the top of every client’s remodel list. Here at Greenbrook Design, we take great satisfaction in helping our clients stay on track. Pairing Walker Woodworking custom cabinets with Wellborn semi-custom options, these homeowners could get the dream kitchen in their above-garage apartment they wanted while staying on the budget they needed. Blending cabinet options allowed the homeowners to achieve the look and feel of what they envisioned for their kitchen. We were able to do this without compromising appearance and function.

Budget Friendly Cabinet Options
With three semi-custom cabinet lines of different price points and quality to choose from, we can assure you of an on-budget but still high-quality cabinet. The fully custom cabinetry line can check off every single one of your boxes, but it might not be in your budget. So, we offer the option to mix and match the semi-custom and custom cabinet lines to give you the kitchen of your dreams. Our offerings include: Walker Woodworking, a fully custom cabinet line, Dura Supreme, Cabico, andWellborn, all custom and semi-custom budget-friendly cabinet lines.

We love spaces that look beautiful, but many times we underestimate the little things that can have the biggest impact. Facets provide our bathrooms and kitchens with a clean and elegant way to wash our hands, our food, and our dishes. They are a functional part of the design, but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. With the numerous styles and finishes offered by manufacturers, it can be challenging to determine which one will best suit your home. Several other factors should also be considered, including durability, maintenance, and suitability for specific areas of the home. Let’s talk about them here before you head out to buy your next amazing faucet.
If you have looked at a renovated kitchen and wondered where the appliances, such as the refrigerator and dishwasher, were, you have just experienced paneled appliances. The beauty of these custom panels lies in their ability to cover the appliances, allowing them to blend in seamlessly with the rest of the cabinetry.
Many of our clients come to us from an hour or more away, often from the greater Charlotte metro area. A common question we hear is, “Why make the drive to Shelby when there are design centers closer to home?” It’s a fair question—and one we completely understand. That’s why we’d like to share a few key reasons why we believe the experience, service, and value you’ll find at Greenbrook Design make the trip well worth it.
