A Home Our Planet Asked For.
Carbon-negative, off-grid-ready homes, engineered for the way people actually live.
Tomo
A name that means friend in more than one language.
Tomo Haus is our response to living in nature and being a friend to the environment and the people who live in this extraordinary house.
A futureproof holiday home, designed for the long view
Tomo Haus is a range of carbon-negative homes delivered to private clients and hospitality operators. They are designed around how a home should actually function; generous rooms without wasted space, industry leading performance built in rather than bolted on, and strength and versatility to cope with any situation.
We offer a curated catalogue of configurations: compact one-bedroom retreats, generous family homes, single-storey or two-storey. You choose the home that fits your site and your life.
Our mission in developing our unique building system was to combine the best structural and thermal products with optimised design, ensuring cost efficiency and seamless transportation anywhere in the world.
We deliver it either as a watertight and lockable shell ready for your interior fitout and cosmetic cladding, or as a finished turnkey home, you choose.
What you get
- A home built to last generations. Strong, sustainably engineered mass timber panels for exceptional strength, performance, health, and carbon negativity.
- Low maintenance by design. Built from durable, natural materials that age gracefully rather than wear out. The home looks after itself.
- Industry-leading energy efficiency. A fraction of the heating energy of a conventional build. Draught-free, deeply insulated, warm in winter, cool in summer, quiet always.
- Healthy by design for the planet and you. Just natural materials throughout, and no concrete. Less disruptive builds, genuinely better for the people inside and out.
- Watertight shell, or ready to live in. Delivered and quickly assembled on site as a watertight and lockable shell: structure, insulation, windows, doors, roof, or as a completed fitout.
- A home for any site. Rural, coastal, hillside, or remote. Engineered to sit lightly on the land. No concrete slab. Minimal ground disturbance, renewable energy and V2H ready.
Off-grid. Zero energy bills. Carbon negative.
Tomo Haus is designed from the start to run on renewable energy. Pair the home with solar, battery storage, and V2H (vehicle-to-house) technology, and you have a complete off-grid home with no energy bills. Ever.
The building does most of the work. So little energy is needed to heat, cool, and run a Tomo Haus that modest renewable generation is enough to power it year-round. Your car charges the house if needed. The grid becomes optional.
Carbon-negative construction
Every Tomo Haus is built primarily from sustainably harvested timber, a natural, renewable material that locks atmospheric carbon away inside the walls of your home for generations. The construction process emits less carbon than the timber removes from the atmosphere, making each Tomo Haus a carbon-negative building.
At the end of its long life, and it will be a long one, a Tomo Haus can be taken apart and reused. No bulldozer. No landfill.
For private clients
A forever home, a coastal retreat, a country cabin, somewhere to retire to. Tomo Haus gives you a beautiful, high-performance home without the years of stress that traditional building usually brings.
For hospitality clients
Boutique accommodation, eco-lodges, retreat centres, holiday parks, luxury short-stay developments. Quality your guests expect, the sustainability story your brand needs, predictable cost and timeline across multiple units. We work with operators planning anything from a single signature unit to a full site.
