THE MCCALMAN BUILDING
The McCalman Building
For this specific project, KV Workspace worked towards improving the office space for Avior Solutions’ corporate office located on the Northshore in Covington. The client was looking for highly functional, yet elegant, classic designs with a touch of contemporary furniture that would bring life to the employees work spaces. Through the use of Haworth Enclose floor to ceiling glass, wood and painted demountable walls we were able to provide the flexibility the client desired while maintaining a sophisticated executive look. The wood finishes on the executive desks and furnishings match the woods used throughout on the modular walls to create a cohesive professional atmosphere. A 20 foot section of frameless “switch glass” was used in our Haworth EFG product across the entire front of the conference room to provide instant privacy when desired by the client. The switch glass allows for a quick and easy transition from a fully opaque glass wall to clear glass. When not in use the switch glass conference wall allows for daylight and views of the exterior to be seen as you enter the space.

I cannot say enough about the team at KV Workspace. From the sales and design consultants to the admin team; from the installation coordinator to the final walk through; everyone on the team is very professional, knowledgeable, on task, forward thinking, readily available, and truly a pleasure to work with.
We purchased office cubicles from KV Workspace. The entire experience, from our consultation with the account executive to the actual installation was flawless and stress free. They helped us design the workstations that fit perfectly into our available space, and the knowledgeable and professional installation team had us good to go with minimal down time. I would highly recommend KV Workspace for anyone setting up a new office or looking to redesign their current office space.
What we most appreciate when working with KV Workspace is their holistic approach to our projects. They seek to understand the workflow and dynamics of our business culture, matching furniture, function, and aesthetics to best unite our business units and increase performance.
The KV Workspace team has consistently provided The Times-Picayune with professional services and innovative solutions to accomplish our projects goals. As always, time is of the essence and staying within budget can be very challenging, but KV Workspace has proven time and time again that they are up for the challenge and can meet our needs.
KV Workspace was first involved in remodeling our conference rooms and two of our executive offices. They worked very hard to provide us with design and furniture options for our space and we were pleased with the outcome. We contacted them again when remodeling our corporate service center and our break room area. KV Workspace assessed the areas and needs and provided results that were functional and very pleasing aesthetically. KV Workspace provided the expertise and know-how on the design, planning and completion of the projects on schedule and within our budget.
“I have worked with Kris and her staff for over 8 years on small as well as large projects. Kris is always a step ahead of you, keeping the project on track and keeping you, the client, well informed as to the progress. She is quick to pick up on your personality – likes and dislikes – and guides the client in a very professional manner to make the right design choices. It is a joy to work with Kris and her staff.”
