When you step into the newly launched Nashville Experience Center by Working Spaces, you’re stepping into a space designed to redefine how businesses in Nashville approach commercial office design.
Officially launched in May 2025, this innovative center is a milestone achievement that showcases Working Spaces’ commitment to the Nashville market and our philosophy of delivering an “Unreasonable Client Experience.”
To better understand the vision behind this groundbreaking space, we spoke with Mr. Travis Harter, the Market Leader for Working Spaces in Nashville. With his leadership guiding the company’s growth in the region, Travis brings a wealth of insight into how the Experience Center is designed to serve as more than just a showroom. It’s an interactive hub offering curated office solutions, cutting-edge technology, and a unique client experience tailored to meet the needs of Nashville businesses.
A Major Milestone for Working Spaces
The Nashville Experience Center represents the culmination of years of success and growth for Working Spaces in the region.
For Travis, this new venture is less about reaching a milestone and more about setting the stage for long-term impact.
“It’s one of those things where we built the market to a level where this was the logical next step,” Travis explains.
“It provides comfort to our clients, both existing and future, by showing that we’re committed to Nashville — not just in words but in investment. This isn’t just a space to browse furniture. It’s a space that reassures the community that we’re here to stay and ready to collaborate in meaningful ways.”
Far from being just another showroom, the Experience Center combines Nashville’s cultural charm with the professional polish that Working Spaces is known for. The inclusion of a music corner and stage area serves as a nod to the city’s rich musical heritage – the original Music City – creating a creative and inspiring atmosphere for hosted events like songwriter nights and professional networking sessions.
The Vision Behind the Nashville Experience Center
The concept of the Nashville Experience Center is a natural extension of Working Spaces’ philosophy of putting clients first. According to Travis, every aspect of the space is purposefully designed to serve both immediate client needs and long-term relationships.
“We designed the Center with two goals in mind,” he explains. “First, to use the space efficiently to maximize the number of products on display without overwhelming visitors. Second, to deliver on our commitment to being good stewards of our clients’ budgets. By choosing a more compact space compared to traditional showrooms, we’ve been able to reduce costs, which ultimately benefits our clients.”
The Experience Center offers an immersive environment showcasing some of the latest trends in commercial office design. It features 45 furniture solutions, including 34 selections from Kimball International, a leading brand in the industry that Working Spaces exclusively represents in Nashville.
The space also integrates innovative technology like Oculus goggles and Matterport walkthroughs, allowing clients to explore and visualize different designs—from Nashville to other Working Spaces showrooms across the country.
What Clients Can Expect
When a client walks into the Nashville Experience Center, every detail of their visit is carefully considered to ensure it’s a bespoke experience. “Our aim is to make every client feel that visiting us was an extraordinary use of their time,” says Travis.
- Interactive Furniture Displays: The Center is equipped with four different glass wall solutions and dozens of furniture layouts to inspire creative office design. These displays allow clients to see, touch, and experience products in action.
- Cutting-Edge Technology: With tools like Oculus VR walkthroughs, clients can virtually explore past projects and customize solutions to match their unique workplace needs.
- Collaboration and Customization: By partnering with local design firms like SW Design and Working Spaces’ in-house design team, the Center acts as both a creative workspace and a resource hub for clients looking for tailored office designs.
The Unreasonable Client Experience in Action
One of the defining philosophies of Working Spaces is our promise to deliver what we call the “Unreasonable Client Experience.” But what does that look like in practice? For Travis, it’s about attention to detail and proactive client service from start to finish.
“Before clients even walk through the door, we’ve already done our homework. We research their needs and projects, so we’re fully prepared to provide solutions that align with their goals and timelines,” he shares.
“It’s not just about selling furniture; it’s about building trust and partnerships.”
This philosophy also extends to the way Working Spaces mitigates challenges during projects. Travis recalls a firsthand learning experience during the construction of the Nashville Experience Center, which involved navigating issues like delays or even unexpected events like flooding. These experiences gave him a deeper appreciation for the obstacles that clients face and a renewed commitment to making their process as seamless as possible.
Looking Ahead
The Nashville Experience Center is just the beginning. Travis has ambitious plans for Working Spaces in the region, with long-term goals to expand both the physical footprint and the team’s capabilities.
“We’re building a full-fledged operating office here, complete with project managers, sales executives, and a design team,” Travis reveals. “Our goal is to become the go-to partner for office design and furniture solutions in Nashville and beyond.”
When asked what he hopes clients will take away from their first visit to the Experience Center, Travis doesn’t hesitate. “I want them to leave with a sense of comfort and confidence. Comfort in knowing that we’re here to stay, and confidence that we’re deeply committed to their projects and their success.”
