The market for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) has grown exponentially in recent years, as states and municipalities loosen regulations affecting these smaller buildings, which can be an efficient way to create more housing.
Homeowners who want to increase their property’s capacity and value by building an ADU have options from which to choose. Many companies offer prefabricated solutions, which can result in efficiencies. Homeowners should be wary, however, of prefab companies that overpromise a fast, affordable ADU solution.
Even within the limited canvas of the ADU, our team finds opportunities for inspiration—making the space feel considered and special. The modest square footage of the ADU places an increased emphasis on storage. Our dedicated team of cabinetry designers represents a distinct advantage that Turkel Design brings to ADUs.
Below are some examples of custom cabinetry moments, crafted with top-quality wood, that can elevate the simple ADU into an elegant work of custom architecture:
This hidden walnut cabinet welcomes the occupant to drop their keys, phone, and other belongings upon entry, gracefully signaling that it’s time to unplug.
A bench transforms from a seat into an LP player, representing flexible use of limited space.
While it may be hard to believe that an ADU can accommodate a full mixology station, we can design one that fits easily into the cabinetry of an ADU’s more modestly scaled kitchen area.
To achieve the goal of creating an ADU that feels like an extension of the main house, we maintain a high level of custom design and incorporate the same material, fixture, and finish quality. Each ADU is delivered using our systematized prefab process, which brings predictability of cost, timeline, and quality.
If you are interested in including an ADU as part of your custom home, please contact us. We would love to discuss how you want to live.
