Property developer & consulting practice
Enabling developments that are inclusive & ground-breaking
Using real estate as a vehicle for shifting society from a culture of exploitation to one of compassion and regeneration.
Akoma is a property developer and consulting practice with an acute focus on building inclusive housing at the community scale.
Finding solutions that deeply consider people, planet and profit is at the heart of what we do, at every stage of a development. Together with our clients and partners, we seek to create inspiring solutions that push boundaries and go beyond the status quo.
We champion initiatives that act as catalysts for the ecological, economic, and social health of the surrounding areas. This is true whether it is a farm, a school or an apartment complex.

Akoma Developments
As with any developer, we conceptualise, design, build, finance and operate buildings. Unlike most, we believe the built environment too often fails to nurture people, the planet or society. We are working to change this.
