This project adds a new two-story DADU to the backyard of an existing single-family home, using the existing deck to connect the new structure with the main house. The lower level is dedicated to a music studio, while the upper floor provides a compact yet complete living space with a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, laundry, storage, and living room. The design balances functionality, efficient space planning, and compatibility with the scale and character of the existing home.

This project expands the upper level of an existing single-family home to better accommodate the client's growing space needs. By adding a second story above an existing rear volume, we created a larger primary bedroom, closet, and bathroom while repurposing the original attic as a home office and playroom. The addition was carefully designed to match the home's existing roof form and architectural character, creating functional new living spaces that feel fully integrated with the original house.

This two-story addition seamlessly integrates client programmatic needs with structural and zoning constraints by transforming potential limitations into key design opportunities. Through strategic circulation adjustments, a 'sunroom-inspired' living extension, and a counterbalanced façade articulation, the project successfully elevates spatial quality while preserving the integrity of the existing structure.

This project expands the home by extending its existing architectural language to introduce a new sunroom and a private guest suite, seamlessly integrated through thoughtful massing and a connecting shed roof. The interior is reorganized for modern living, featuring a dual-sided fireplace and strategically placed utility spaces, while a generous rear deck and large windows strengthen the connection to the backyard.

This project adds a three-story DADU to an existing single-family home on a steeply sloped site, expanding the overall living capacity while maintaining a strong physical connection to the main house through a shared deck. The design takes advantage of the changing grade to create a walkout lower level and organize the program across three distinct floors.The DADU includes a primary suite, office, laundry, screen porch, and additional bedrooms, with a flexible lower level that opens to the backyard. Overall, the project extends the functionality of the existing home by integrating new living spaces into the site conditions and strengthening the relationship between indoor spaces and the landscape.

This project is an interior remodel of an existing residence with no exterior changes. The main focus was to improve functionality by reorganizing the kitchen, living, and dining areas into a more open and connected layout, while upgrading bedrooms, bathrooms, and closets for better use.The basement was transformed from a storage-heavy level into a usable living space, including a den, playroom, kitchenette, bathroom, and storage areas.Overall, the project improves how the existing house works by making the layout more efficient and livable.

This project seamlessly integrates a large three-car garage addition while expanding the existing interior playroom, utilizing a new connecting volume and the site's natural slope to resolve complex floor elevations. Through strategic design choices—such as a side-entry orientation, matching rooflines, and an asymmetrical door layout—the massive visual weight of the addition is successfully mitigated, achieving a balanced and dynamic harmony with the original architecture.

This project reworks an existing residence and introduces a DADU to better organize the overall program and respond to the site’s steep terrain. Interior spaces in the main house were adjusted to improve usability and flow, while the new addition was carefully positioned within the slope using retaining walls. The upper level of the DADU is oriented to engage with distant outdoor amenities, including a planned pool area, extending the visual connection across the site.

This strategic, cost-effective renovation transforms a two-bedroom house into a cohesive four-bedroom home by introducing a rear primary suite, converting the existing garage, and opening up the core living spaces. By minimizing major demolition, the design seamlessly integrates these interior upgrades with a new front porch and attached carport, establishing fluid circulation and a balanced exterior.

The existing front entry porch was redesigned to establish a more cohesive relationship with the main house through revised roof proportions, adjusted elevations, and a more contemporary structural expression, resulting in a more balanced architectural composition.
