Problem
Traditional construction methods for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and single-family homes are often slow, costly, and generate significant material waste, while also relying on traditional utility hookups that contribute to carbon emissions. Rebuilding after disasters like wildfires presents additional challenges due to labor shortages, rising costs, and the need for fire-resistant designs.
Solution
Cosmic offers prefabricated, fully electric ADUs and single-family homes built using a proprietary robotic manufacturing process that reduces construction time and waste. These homes integrate systems for on-site solar energy generation, battery storage, and water recycling, enabling energy independence and reducing reliance on traditional infrastructure. Cosmic homes are designed to meet stringent fire codes, utilizing non-combustible materials and advanced fire-resistant designs, making them suitable for rebuilding in fire-prone areas. The company provides a concierge service, managing all aspects of the building process from design and permitting to manufacturing and installation.
Target Audience
Cosmic targets homeowners in California seeking sustainable, fire-resistant ADUs or single-family homes, particularly those affected by wildfires and looking for a fast, efficient rebuilding solution. The company also serves developers interested in creating sustainable communities.
