BUILD BEYOND BOUNDARIES.
Tomu, Inc. (“Tomu”) was born from the idea that people with passion have the power to connect. They are driven by a desire to share stories not often told with those not often spoken to. As the hospitality industry evolves, Tomu is committed to empowering these passionate creators. By helping craft their visions, together we will serve the unexplored corners of hospitality to make the landscape of offerings more diverse and ownership more accessible.
With our innovative modular building system designed specifically for hospitality, we enable hosts and hoteliers in bringing their unique concepts to life—more quickly, cost-effectively, and sustainably. Our prefabricated guest units are constructed with premium commercial-grade materials, delivered nearly complete to site, and require only a few days of onsite installation to get projects opened and operating sooner. Whether through a pre-designed model or a bespoke creation, Tomu ensures that every project is an authentic reflection of the creator’s vision and their guests’ expectations.
At Tomu, our mission is to reimagine the hospitality landscape and enable you to Build Beyond Boundaries.
