Designer Quote
“My goal is to utilize products and selections to maximize the clients value, whether that be budget or design.”
Staying on budget is usually at the top of every client’s remodel list and we at Greenbrook Design take great satisfaction in helping our clients stay on track. Pairing Walker Woodworking custom cabinets with Wellborn semi custom options, these homeowners were able to get the dream kitchen in their above garage apartment they wanted while staying on the budget they needed. The blending of cabinet options allowed the homeowners to achieve the look and feel of what they envisioned their kitchen to be, without compromising appearance and function.
Kitchen + Bathrooms
Objective: Design an open kitchen with storage solutions that are easily accessible within all cabinets so they are both functional and beautiful using Walker Woodworking Frameless Cabinetry mixed with semi- custom cabinets by Wellborn.
“Greenbrook Design went above and beyond anything we could have asked for during the remodel. From the very beginning, the entire process was worry free and the end result was pure perfection with an emphasis on customer service.”
D. Lambert – Homeowner
Complementary cabinets choices exceed expectations of the homeowners vision. The large custom island enables this layout to function perfectly when paired with stock Wellborn cabinets. Storage is an important part of any room but especially in the kitchen and this island has several helpful features including drawers that are great to store dish towels, serving utensils and the occasional random object that gets left in the kitchen. The storage underneath also provides the perfect place to store larger items such as serving platters and cutting boards.
For the master bath the homeowners wanted to create a functional yet relaxing space. Extra storage space was on the wish list, and was achieved with this Wellborn vanity where towels and additional items can be easily be stored.
