A vertically integrated ADU and custom-home builder, engineered as one system.
Karlev designs the units, engineers the patented aluminum spaceframe, fabricates it on a 6-axis robotic line, permits every plan set through California's Factory-Built Housing Program, and assembles on the customer's lot through a 30-inch opening, without cranes.
Mission
Everyone deserves the luxury of space. Deliver full-size living in a backyard footprint, engineered once and built the same way every time.
Vision
Make factory-precise, HCD-insignia housing the default for California backyards, priced roughly 30 percent below comparable prefab, delivered on a fixed schedule, at a finish level that belongs in the main house.
Principle
Precision
Every joint on the aluminum spaceframe is robotically welded to a ±0.5mm tolerance, unit one and unit one hundred.
Principle
Accountability
One engineered platform, one team, one warranty. Structure, envelope, MEP and controls belong to the same company.
Principle
Craft
Marvin Elevate glazing, Vadara Quartz, warm oak or polished concrete floors, detailed the way an architect would specify them.
Principle
Speed
Discovery to move-in in 6 to 8 months, with prefabrication running in parallel with California's 60-day permit review.
