Los Angeles’ Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Standard Plan Program is a forward-thinking initiative that offers homeowners a way to enhance their living space through clever, architect-designed ...

– Los Angeles has recently revealed a new building initiative that will allow homeowners to get even more bang for their buck through home improvements.

‘This program is about making ADUs more accessible, more affordable, and more beautiful — and making them part of the blueprint of our efforts to tackle our housing crunch and create more affordable communities citywide,’ said the city’s Mayor Eric Garcetti, when announcing the program, which has been in development for a year and in a pilot phase for seven months.

‘The Standard Plan Program will dramatically streamline the process for homeowners of selecting and getting an ADU design approved by LADBS, while at the same time supporting the work of Los Angeles architects and extending the City’s rich tradition of innovation in residential architecture,’ says Christopher Hawthorne, Chief Design Officer for the City of Los Angeles.

Fung + Blatt Architects has designed an elegant, all-electric dwelling that teams an L-shaped footprint with a series of staggered fences to provide privacy. Welcome Projects’ two-floor Breadbox’ combines stucco and clay tile to form a whimsical garden cottage, accompanied by a variety of porch and window options that can be configured to suit specific backyard conditions.

With the program open to architects, contractors and firms who can meet its basic criteria, the first assortment of designs is simply a taster of what lies in store for homeowners in Los Angeles. For anyone thinking about springing for that home office, wellness or creative studio, a place to house relatives, now is certainly the time for home improvements.
