Emergent, founded in 2019, emerged from the necessity to address the rebuilding efforts after the Carr Fire in Northern California. The company's primary mission revolves around combating the pressing housing shortage in the U.S., which has reached a staggering deficit of 3.8 million homes according to Fannie Mae. The team at Emergent is dedicated to providing innovative solutions to this crisis, whether it be through disaster recovery or catering to the dream homes of families.
Amidst the housing shortages, Emergent is also addressing the significant decline in the construction workforce, where only one millennial enters the trade for every five baby boomers leaving. To tackle this challenge, Emergent employs state-of-the-art 3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) technology, streamlining construction processes that significantly reduce costs and enhance build times. This technology not only facilitates the efficient creation of homes but also aims to revive the construction industry by generating job opportunities in collaboration with trade unions like LiUNA!.
Emergent's team comprises seasoned professionals, such as CEO Don Ajamian, who has extensive experience in construction from custom homes to large-scale projects, and Dustin Phillips, who leads the company's construction management efforts, ensuring that innovative techniques meet functional and aesthetic standards in their projects.
Committed to a sustainable future, Emergent designs homes with durable and eco-friendly materials, allowing for energy-efficient structures that can be customized to meet client specifications. With various projects underway, like affordable housing development in collaboration with local governments and the assistance of underserved populations, Emergent is not just building homes; they are building communities and futures.
With a vision that marries technology with community needs, Emergent is changing the landscape of home construction, ensuring that every family has access to a safe and beautiful place to call home.
