This site in Long Beach is fortunate to have available land in the front of the property.

 

The program for the ADU floor plan must have two separate studios with a shared laundry room and utility bills for the total living area of 790 sf.

​

The ADU site setting and design present some challenges as this is now for rent studios for the "affordable" renting budget but at the same time make it look nice for it is now the front of the house. 

​

The entry to the old house must be maintained and visible from the street and the style needs to be compatible to the old main house.
