She was a Managing Director for an IT management consulting firm prior to partnering with Barry and forming Capstone Custom Homes.<\/p>\n Over the years, Brigitte gained experience renovating and building family homes. This experience gave Brigitte the opportunity to indulge her love of interior design and architecture. She found herself drawn to texture, colour palettes and interior and exterior finishes. Brigitte began formal Interior Design studies at York University, and spends her spare time pouring over design books. She has garnered success as a designer in her own right in the Calgary Region, but her focus is always on creating \u201c\u2026a home that our clients love.\u201d<\/p>\n Brigitte understands how important it is to get the finishing details right.

The two concepts were not mutually exclusive.<\/p>\n Capstone Custom Homes opened for business in Calgary, Alberta in 20__. As Brigitte puts it: \u201cWith Capstone, you\u2019re working directly with Barry and I, the owners, throughout the design and build of your home. It doesn\u2019t get more personal than that! I think there is a lot of value in that \u2013 we care, we\u2019re on site, we take care of your project like it\u2019s our own.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n At Capstone Custom Homes, we are obsessed with making sure that your home building experience is outstanding, and matches the extraordinary homes that we build.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1637350953745{margin-top: -45px !important;background-position: 0 0 !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1637350953745{margin-top: -45px !important;background-position: 0 0 !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_hoverbox image=”1495″ primary_title=”” primary_align=”justify” hover_title=”Barry Laidlaw” shape=”square” el_width=”70″ css_animation=”none”]Owner <\/p>\n [\/vc_hoverbox][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_hoverbox image=”1494″ primary_title=”” hover_title=”Brigitte Lepage” shape=”square” el_width=”70″ css_animation=”none”]Owner [\/vc_hoverbox][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”64px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row archi_parallax=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1524730148402{padding-top: 90px !important;padding-bottom: 90px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/dev.capstonehomes.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/bg-3-1-1.jpg?id=744) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”text-light bg-fixed”][vc_column animate=”fadeinup”]\n\t \t \n\t We are very pleased with our new high quality custom home. We would recommend Capstone Custom Homes to anyone without hesitation. The quality of the product we received from Capstone was easily top tier and we would build with them again. We have since walked through several show homes at our price point and that\u2019s when we realized how great a home Capstone built for us.<\/p>\n We could not be happier. We purchased a tear down in Richmond Park and wanted to build. Not knowing what to expect, Capstone walked us through the whole process, making us feel comfortable and engaged throughout the entire experience. The team is very passionate and knowledgeable with years of experience prior to starting Capstone Custom Homes, this is so evident in everything they do. Attention to detail is second to none. We were equally impressed with Capstone\u2019s ability to source products we wanted, even if it wasn\u2019t easy, while working within our budget. We highly recommend Capstone Custom Homes and continue to gain from their service.<\/p>\n If you want to build a good house, you need a good builder, and from the beginning, we were sure that Capstone was a good one. In Capstone Custom Homes, Brigitte & Barry have a unique & refreshing business model that combines structural and interior design expertise, hands-on construction management, and a strong commitment to quality and service. They are fun to work with, but more importantly, they are good listeners: they excelled at taking our requests to heart, and making them happen. Thanks to their awesome attention to detail, and excellent sub-trades, the finishing details are second to none, resulting in a one-of-kind home that is ideally suited to us.<\/p>\n We would absolutely recommend Capstone to our friends and family.<\/p>\n From the moment we met Barry, Brigitte and the gang at Capstone, we felt like friends and not clients. They are an extremely talented group that takes the time to listen and respect our decisions while providing guidance and insight throughout the design and selection process. Working with everyone was fun and exciting, and at no time did we experience any frustrations or negativity. They are creative, and have a keen eye for detail. The build process was worry free, and the neighbours commented on how wonderful the process was, with little interruption and very respectful trades and crews. The house was completed on time and on budget. Brigitte is very diligent ensuring that the highest quality and standards are met, but pays very close attention to the budget. We could not be more thrilled with our Capstone experience, and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. We would build with them again in a heartbeat. Capstone Custom Homes did not only build us a house, they truly built us a Dream Home. Thank you Capstone!<\/p>\n [vc_row archi_parallax=”yes” img_halfrow=”yes” halfrow_image=”1495″ img_columns=”6columns” img_position=”imgleft”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1637363067407{padding-right: 45px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}”] HOW WE STARTED What are the chances a new business partnership will be formed by a builder and a former custom home client?
