In today’s episode of CC Pod host Zeina Fayyaz Kim engages in a conversation with Sasha Jokic, the Founder and CEO of Cosmic. Explore the world of sustainable living and learn how they're transforming housing with their innovative approach, focusing on fully electric, self-sufficient homes.

Cosmic’s homes, constructed in factories and shipped to sites without the need for utility connections, are designed to increase productivity and quality, while reducing environmental impact. The company's focus extends beyond mere construction – it's about the entire lifecycle of a home, from design and logistics to assembly and operation.

Jokic explained, “We really get obsessed about how do we make sure that something that we believe today in it will be the rule for the next 30 years in this company.” This commitment to sustainability and customer experience is evident in their first product – Cosmic One. Available in three sizes, these Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are equipped with state-of-the-art systems for air filtration and water recycling.

What sets Cosmic Buildings apart is not just the product, but also their business strategy. Drawing on his previous entrepreneurial experience, Jokic has implemented a lean operation, focusing on cost management, strategic partnerships, and innovative financing plans.

Cosmic is also launching the Cosmic Foundation initiative. The company is pledging 1% of every sold home to support displaced families and children, tying their commercial success with their social responsibility.

As Jokic invites listeners to visit their showroom in downtown San Francisco, there’s a palpable excitement about the future of housing. With companies like Cosmic at the helm, the sustainable, self-sufficient homes of the future may just be around the corner.
