our difference.
"Architecture can be the Technology that alleviates the Suffering of Mankind and as such, if that means that I need to make buildings that fly, buildings that saves lives, buildings that are kind and compassionate...then that’s what I will do."
- James Law, homeD co-founder
Across the world, we witnessed how the detrimental impact of the Covid pandemic exponentially affected our most vulnerable communities. The divide between rich and poor got wider, crime increased... the fragility of our community became apparent. It was something that could no longer be ignored.
Founded by leaders in the architecture, technology, construction, and social & environmental industries, old friends came together with their expertise and experience with the same shared vision to leave a better world for the future generations.
In every decision we make, we consider the end result to the community, humanity, animals, and our planet. We want to address the issues of social housing and we want to disrupt the industry by making quality, dignified, housing affordable to everyone.
