"My name is Kawther Jelassi, but everyone calls me CoCo. I’m a Residential Transition Specialist and Home Stager with over 22 years of experience in interior architecture and design. My journey began with a deep love for creating spaces that feel like home, but over the years, I discovered something even more meaningful: helping people through life transitions, especially seniors and families going through change. I come from a place of care, creativity, and purpose. I’ve lived through the emotional weight of downsizing with my own family, and I know how powerful it is to feel seen, supported, and guided through that process. That’s why I do what I do not just to stage homes, but to create dignity, ease, and comfort in every step. Based in Oakville, Ontario, I proudly serve clients across the GTA with a commitment to excellence, empathy, and a heart full of intention.

Sophisticated design for tasteful living < Back Previous Elevarre - by Sagebrook Home Sophisticated design for tasteful living Elevarre is about trend-forward design that brings livable luxury into any space. The use of timeless aesthetics with emphasis on texture, scale, and iconic natural materials ensures a harmonious and enduring appeal. Explore our thoughtful collections that not only magnify designers’ creative freedom but also transform spaces into award-worthy rooms. Since our early years, our parents instilled in us a love for design, a strong work ethic, and a dedication to our chosen careers. Observing their three decades of expertise in the realms of fashion, textiles, and manufacturing, we learned valuable lessons in successfully navigating business. They emphasized the keys to building a thriving enterprise – the significance of family, the value of hard work, and the importance of loyalty to customers. These principles became the cornerstone of Sagebrook Home | Elevarre. Fueled by our passion for design and creativity, coupled with our knowledge of textiles manufacturing, we embarked on our own venture. In March 2015, our company was established with the mission to bring a fresh perspective to the home decor industry. Expanding on our mission, we champion design innovation and view every customer as an integral part of the Sagebrook Home | Elevarre family. Acknowledging that our achievement relies on comprehending and attentively listening to each person, we have formulated the fundamental principles of our company. We extend these values to every member of our sales, corporate office, and warehouse teams. Sagebrook Home|Elevarre is committed to delivering irresistible and inspired collections, accompanied by exceptional customer service that is always attentive. In just less than a decade, we express immense gratitude for the growth of our family and the dedication of our hardworking teams. At Sagebrook Home | Elevarre, we transcend being just a team – we are a family. Jason & Justin Kachan Sagebrook Home CEO's Learn More Next
