There is nothing that can substitute for experience and expertise. You need someone who knows what they are doing and who is on your side.

KVA Design Ltd is a widely experienced design studio that specialises in commercial interiors and architecture, large scale to smaller projects, throughout New Zealand and overseas. Wide-ranging skills, solid expertise and a strong creative drive are what we bring to every project.

Christchurch-based, the company focuses around Warren Burton, Malcolm Orr and the team. We are happy to work on assignments of any size and scope. It’s all about attitude and aptitude. Our goal is always to create something special, that’s also eminently practical in construction terms. We put a lot of emphasis on a controlled, systematic approach with strong documentation and pride ourselves on high quality design output. We believe the results speak for themselves.

“Our clients benefit from the breadth and depth of our work – applying that cumulative knowledge and experience to every project.
