Project Breakdown

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have been a hot topic of conversation over the past few years as California searches for more ways to build new housing in areas that are in demand and close to transit and jobs. Also known as in-law units and granny flats, this type of housing is often associated with detached backyard cottages or garages converted to living spaces in single family neighborhoods. However, ADUs can also be found in apartment buildings by converting garages and other unused spaces. San Francisco passed local laws allowing this several years ago, and California state.

Also known as in-law units and granny flats, this type of housing is often associated with detached backyard cottages or garages converted to living spaces in single family neighborhoods. However, ADUs can also be found in apartment buildings by converting garages and other unused spaces. San Francisco passed local laws allowing this several years ago, and California state law recently changed to allow them statewide. OpenScope’s experience designing multifamily ADUs in San Francisco since 2015 has given us a head start on this fascinating opportunity to add density to existing buildings…
