Who’d You Rather: Kitchen Cousins

Kitchen Cousins
 In "Kitchen Cousins", Anthony Carrino and John Colaneri, designers/contractors and cousins, run a New Jersey-based, family construction company. While construction and renovation are the mainstays of their business, designing and building dream kitchens is their passion. Throughout the series, the cousins will remodel desperately troubled kitchens -- turning each one into a work of art.






 Anthony Carrino


Anthony Carrino, co-host of HGTV's Kitchen Cousins with real-life cousin John Colaneri, graduated from Babson College in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in entrepreneurship and information systems. During his years at Babson he started his own web development company, Intricate Design, and by his senior year he was managing more than 30 clients in the Boston area.

In 2004, Anthony and his father, Alfonso, co-founded Brunelleschi Construction. Anthony’s role for the first two years, aside from general business matters, was to be on site every day to run the job. Today, Anthony is focused on a number of different tasks ranging from supporting on-site operations to managing project timelines, including all negotiations with vendors and subcontractors.

Anthony resides in Jersey City, N.J.


 John Colaneri

John Colaneri, co-host of HGTV’s Kitchen Cousins with his cousin Anthony Carino, graduated from Pennsylvania State University in 2003 with a Bachelor of Science in labor and industrial relations with a minor in business management.

With most of his family involved in construction, it was natural for John to work as a laborer when he was home from college in the summers. He worked for his uncle’s company, Prismatic Development, where he was involved in many aspects of the construction process.

With John’s experience in construction, savvy business skills and an eagerness to learn, he was ready to devote his time to the family construction business, Brunelleschi Construction.

John resides in Hoboken, N.J., with his family.
