in downtown Toronto.

Lead Design Consultant, Dane Caldwell has a background in design and styling for photography. She understands project plans and getting the tasks done on time and on budget. An avid home renovator Dane and her husband enjoy increasing their investments through real estate.

With the unrivaled business training of great marketing and internationally famous design & decorating mentors, Kimberley Seldon of Kimberley Seldon Design Group and Staging DivaTM - Debra Gould, of Six Elements Inc., along with the strong desire to pass on her experience, insight, and knowledge of decorating Dane unleashed 2 Hounds Design + Home Staging.

There are two philosophies when it comes to home staging.

The first philosophy is to create a ‘blank slate', to allow potential buyers to visualize their own furnishings in a house. The problem with this philosophy is that buyers are not emotionally driven to purchase homes by whether or not their furniture will fit in a room.

The 2 Hounds Design + Home Staging philosophy is to create drama for the potential buyers to see how they could live if they bought your property.
