Zomes is a turn-key home builder based in Petaluma, California. They specialize in designing and building low-waste, modern structures that feature fire, water, insect, and mold resistance. Their homes are built using a kit of parts that include exterior panels and interior finishes that, once assembled, create a modern home with a unique appearance. Most notably, their homes have a highly-modern, half-dome appearance.

Their current product offerings include smaller, backyard studio-type structures, units that can be used as an ADU, and larger models that can be used as single-family homes. Notably, their medium and large-sized homes feature additional loft living space and can be joined with connecting hallways to create larger square footage homes. And while Zomes does not offer in-house customization, they can work to manufacture custom plans that are drawn up by 3rd party architects. Additionally, while turn-key Zomes include a finished kitchen, bathroom, and living spaces, individuals looking for custom appliances can purchase these items directly and work with the zomes team on incorporating them into their home.

Logistically, it is worth noting that Zomes is a turn-key housing provider. This means that they can assist customers with all stages of their project starting with securing housing permits to laying a foundation as well as manufacturing the home kit components and even assembling and finishing the home on site. However, for buyers who already have a local builder they would like to work with, Zomes can also ship material kits. On turn-key projects, once permits have been obtained, the entire manufacturing, shipping, assembly, and finishing process can often be completed in 2-3 months. This includes around 1 month of installation in which Zomes will send out a team to assemble the kit and coordinate local labor on the project.

Strengths:

• Offer a series of unique, cost-competitive homes that range in size from small, backyard studios to ADUs and even single-family homes
