Text description provided by architect.
Set toward the rear of a 5000 sf property behind an existing house is this 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom Adu with high ceilings and expansive windows that face courtyards made from the sideyard setbacks.
A diagram of two simple rectangular plaster boxes shifted the cantilever in both shades and also blocked views of adjacent houses over the perimeter wall.
Wood ceilings and floors make a warm space. A linear skylight guides you through the house.
The combination of views, materials and use of exterior space makes a small house that one will never tire of.
