Avignon at Vinings is currently in the process of constructing a relaxing, pristine pool for all residents to use. Meaning, in a little over one month’s time, residents will be able to cool off from the heat in the brand new pool – just in time for the final hot months of the year. The pool will add to the surroundings a peaceful and serene feeling. It will be molded into the classic shape of a clover, but to add a unique twist it will have squared off edges. Come and relax from a hard day at work in mid September when construction is set to be finished. This pool will be a new oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the Vinings area. Bear in mind this is only one of the luxurious amenities Avignon at Vinings will provide its homeowners. Kairos Development truly goes above and beyond any expectations you may have about a new community in Atlanta. So, with the completion of the new Atlanta townhomes and now the pool, there has never been a better time to visit Avignon.

September 18th, also known as the night of the 2008 Development of Excellence Awards, is quickly approaching and Kairos Development Corporation has ceased the opportunity and became a Bronze Sponsor of the event. Considering these awards honor and recognize exceptional examples of development in Atlanta real estate, it makes perfect sense for Kairos to get involved – as Kairos is the developer of exceptional communities throughout metro Atlanta. In fact, not too long ago in 2005, Kairos was the recipient of the prestigious Development of Excellence Award.

In addition to the Development of Excellence Award, ULI Atlanta, the host of the event, also awards deserving companies and projects the Frank Carter Community Achievement Award, the Dan Sweat Community Leadership Award and the Sustainable Development Award. This is an event you won’t want to miss as the who’s who in Atlanta development will be dressed in their finest and in high spirits on this evening. It’s a fabulous opportunity to meet colleagues and develop many professional relationships with industry experts. (more…)

The Astoria at the Aramore and Avignon at Vinings are drawing much attention in Atlanta. If you caught the June issue of Today’s Custom Home magazine, then you should have noticed the cover featuring these new Atlanta communities built by Kairos Development Corporation. The article goes in-depth to describe exactly what sets Kairos Development apart from other Atlanta developers, even emphasizing how Kairos got its name and the meaning behind it. There are amazing pictures of both communities, showcasing the luxury, location and lifestyle. If you haven’t yet seen this issue of Today’s Custom Home, you really need to pick it up, or you can read the article online. Of course, if you choose to read it online, then let me suggest clicking on the printable PDF version. This brings up the article exactly how it looks in the magazine because the online article does not do it justice.

Amy Johnson, who is the finance and technology director for Kairos Development Corporation, recently graduated from the Leadership Rockdale program. In the photo is Amy Johnson with Georgia’s Attorney General, who spoke at the ceremony, and the Leadership Rockdale class facilitators. The fact that Amy took the time to attend all of the courses and meet all of the requirements to graduate shows the devotion and dedication Kairos employees have to their surrounding communities. Amy is now thoroughly involved in Rockdale and will contribute the knowledge gained to the bright future that she hopes the area will soon achieve. Leadership Rockdale is a series of six full-day sessions and one retreat. The idea behind this program is to increase knowledge and awareness of the community and its leaders. Many topics are discussed throughout the duration of the program, like the justice system, government, education, community wellness and industry. Once again congratulations to Amy and we are thrilled to see Kairos so involved!

Great recognition must be given to Kairos Development as their community service efforts will be giving thanks to former US soldiers this June 14th by volunteering their office suites in Buggyworks to be used by Veterans Affairs (VA), a government organization aimed at providing care and support for veterans. Stand Down is an all day quarterly event beginning at 7 am that seeks out homeless veterans in order to help the former US soldiers rehabilitate their mental and emotional issues, as well as aids them in finding suitable housing. As more and more soldiers come back from war with health issues, VA’s programs are becoming of the utmost importance to repay the veterans for their service to our country. More than 300 people are expected to attend. Thanks Kairos Development for helping our community!
