Kimmberly Capone, a finalist on HGTV's Designer Superstar Challenge, is the owner of Capone & Company, which specializes in interior design, home staging and home renovations. She also writes articles for home digest & hosts interior design seminars for TD Bank.
Kimmberly Capone comes from a family of hard working entrepreneurs. Her father founded Capone Electric, a large electrical contracting company and along with her mother he ran it successfully for 20 years with young Kimmberly tagging along and developing a fascination with the building process. Her entrepreneurial parents then decided to go in a different direction, following an idea her mother had. Realizing that there was a need in the market to sell home furnishings and accessories, they decided to open a store called Treasures which grew into a 10 store chain located in the major malls in the Greater Toronto Area.
Since 15 years of age, Kimmberly worked along side her parents learning their two businesses. After attaining a business degree at Ryerson University, Kimmberly, decided to go back to school to Sheridan College to study Interior Design.
It was there that she realized she had the gift of visualization. Seeing a blank space, or a full space and visualizing it differently so that it is beautiful, functional and unique. After many years of practice merchandising the stores, creating floral designs as well as an artwork and upholstery line she decided she would start accepting clients. Kimmberly's goal is for her clients to feel comfortable in their surroundings with furnishings they won't tire of. Her design advice would be create a home that flows from one room to the next and to collect things you love, such as art work or interesting accessory pieces that will beautify any room in the house!
Over the last two years she has worked on 100's of homes providing staging consultations and helping owners sell their properties. Kimmberly's team of professional stagers and trades can transform a home by updating its look through upgrades and furniture placement, making it sell faster and for more money.
Kimmberly is a caring, energetic, hands-on, perfectionist. In her mind everyone deserves a beautiful, comfortable, rejuvenating place to live. Life is too short to have it any other way!
