DADU Construction in Renton & Greater Seattle
Build a Separate Home. Keep the Property Working as One.
Detached accessory dwelling unit projects planned around backyard placement, independent access, privacy, compact living and the architectural relationship between the new residence and the primary home.
A Separate Residence Within One Property
Create a Separate Home Without Dividing the Property.
A DADU should function as a complete residence while maintaining a thoughtful relationship with the primary home, backyard, access and surrounding architecture.
We consider the detached building location, independent entrance, window orientation, private outdoor zone, compact interior circulation and the relationship to the existing property.
The project direction can then coordinate site work, supporting construction, framing, enclosure, complete residential build-out and visible property transitions.
Detached Property Planning
Plan the DADU and the Property Around It.
A DADU affects more than its own footprint. It changes backyard circulation, privacy, views, landscaping and the way both residences use the property.
The project direction should consider the main home, separate entrance, outdoor areas and detached residence as one coordinated property system.
