ADU Design

What This Service Involves

Great ADU projects start with smart design that maximizes livability within zoning and budget limits. We create detailed plans that optimize small-space function, natural light, and flow while satisfying Puget Sound zoning rules. Our design process weighs construction costs and permit requirements from the start to avoid costly surprises. The finished plans give you a clear, approvable roadmap for building your unit.

Benefits

Plans that maximize small-space livability; Designs aligned with local zoning rules; Cost-aware choices built into the design; Optimized light, flow, and function; A clear, permit-ready roadmap

Our Process

1) We discuss your goals, lot, and budget; 2) We develop design concepts and layouts; 3) We refine the plans with your feedback; 4) We finalize permit-ready construction drawings

What Affects the Cost

Complexity and size of the design; Level of customization requested; Site and zoning constraints; Number of design revisions; Engineering documentation needs

Best Time of Year

ADU design is ideal to complete over the winter so your plans are permit-ready when building season opens.
