'Versailles' interior designer Kim Coombs talks designing for a mega-mansion, the Siegels and more

Creating a cohesive design for one of the most well-known mega-mansion projects in the United States isn’t an easy job, especially when you’re being filmed for reality television. However, interior designer and founder of KCBO Design Kim Coombs, who appears in the new “Queen of Versailles Reigns Again” documentary series, says that when it comes to this massive undertaking, she’s happy to have someone as driven as Jackie Siegel spearheading the project.

“She’s actually great to work with,” Coombs says of her boss, with whom she has been working on the Versailles project for several years now. “She’s actually very smart and when she’s focused on something she wants, she’ll (get) it done. She has some out-there ideas (but) it’s just a matter of talking to her (and seeing) what her needs and wants are.”

Coombs says the overall vision for the house’s design has always been to create a space that reflects the dynamics of the Siegel family.
