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.

homeD circle of good.
We recognize that building a home is not sufficient in breaking the cycle of homelessness. We test our decisions against our company's core values, as expressed in our "homeD Circle of Good".
1. Are we able to provide local employment?
2. Can we help provide more opportunities to local businesses?
3. How can we make this an educational and training experience?
4. What is the immediate and long-term social impact?
5. Are we able to fill the gap between non-profit and corporate sectors to reach the people that need it the most?
We stick to what we are good at, and we look for strategic partners that share our same values. We work with support service providers that are the experts in the needs of the residents. We work with private individuals and corporations that genuinely want to make a difference in narrowing the widening gap of socioeconomic disparity.
Of utmost importance to us is that we work with partners that will make the concerted effort to understand and respect the values, culture, traditions, and preferences of our resident's communities.
