# Transforming Spaces in Record Time: A Falkbuilt Installation Story
In the fast-paced world of commercial design, time is everything. When our Downtown Los Angeles showroom needed a quick refresh, we discovered firsthand how modern modular construction can revolutionize project timelines without compromising quality.
## Three Days, Two Rooms, Zero Downtime
Our showroom transformation involved installing a **Falkbuilt McNally solid wall** and a **Falkbuilt Kai glass wall**, complete with framed pin hinge and sliding doors. What makes this remarkable? The entire project—from staging to final cleanup—took just three days.
Traditional construction would have required weeks of work, multiple trades, and significant disruption to our operations. Instead, we maintained a fully functional showroom throughout the entire installation process.
## Design That Tells a Story
Our design team, led by Meg Moussamih (TCT Designer + Estimator) and Cassie Stepanek (Studio Other Design Manager), approached this project with a clear vision.
"We didn't want to just put up walls to create two rooms—we wanted two rooms that exist as individual concepts and work together with the rest of the showroom, all the while telling the Falkbuilt story," explains Moussamih.
This thoughtful approach ensured the new spaces felt intentional rather than like an afterthought. The walls seamlessly integrate with existing millwork and furniture, creating a cohesive environment that enhances rather than disrupts the showroom's flow.
## The Modular Advantage
Modular wall systems offer several compelling advantages for commercial projects:
- **Single-trade installation**: Only one crew needed from start to finish - **Minimal disruption**: Dust-free installation with limited staging requirements - **Speed**: Parallel to conventional construction quality in a fraction of the time - **Flexibility**: Easy reconfiguration as needs change
## Customization Without Compromise
One of the biggest challenges was ensuring the new walls looked like they belonged. Falkbuilt's extensive customization options made this possible.
"There are hundreds of finishes to select, along with dozens of wall layouts, power configurations, technology integrations and door types," notes Moussamih. "We're only showing a small glimpse of all of Falkbuilt's offerings."
## Technology Integration Done Right
The installation features a **recessed touchscreen monitor** that allows our team to access Falkbuilt documents and videos while clients experience the product firsthand. This seamless technology integration demonstrates how modern modular systems can incorporate sophisticated features without compromising aesthetics.
## Lessons for Commercial Design Professionals
This project highlighted several key considerations for specifying modular wall systems:
**Speed matters**: When renovation timelines are tight, modular systems can keep projects on schedule while maintaining operational continuity.
**Integration is key**: Success depends on thoughtful design that considers how new elements will work with existing spaces and furnishings.
**Customization capability**: Look for systems that offer extensive finish and configuration options to achieve your design vision.
**Technology readiness**: Modern modular systems can accommodate sophisticated technology integration from the start.
## Experience It Yourself
Modular construction represents a significant shift in how we approach commercial interiors. The combination of speed, flexibility, and quality opens up new possibilities for projects with tight timelines or operational constraints.
Our Los Angeles showroom demonstrates these capabilities in action. Stop by to experience Falkbuilt solutions firsthand—we'll even show you what's inside the walls.
