Modern Craftsman ADU
The Challenge
The project in Pasadena, CA represents our state-of-the-art approach to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). Our client requested a masterpiece that didn't just meet building codes but pushed the boundaries of what sustainable construction can achieve in 2026. The goal was to create a structure that functions as a living organism—efficient, resilient, and beautiful.
Sustainability
Incorporated carbon-sequestering materials and high-performance thermal envelopes to minimize energy dependency.
Energy
Integrated solar photovoltaic arrays and advanced battery storage systems for true off-grid capability.
Efficiency
Advanced Loxone smart-home automation optimizes water usage and HVAC cycles based on occupancy.
Compliance
Fully exceeded Title 24 energy requirements and achieved CALGreen Tier 2 voluntary standards.
Project Outcome
The final result is a breathtaking example of modern luxury architecture. By utilizing pre-fabricated structural elements and precision on-site assembly, we reduced the construction timeline by 20% compared to industry standards while maintaining an uncompromising level of quality and finish.
