Listen "Accessory Dwelling Units"
Episode Synopsis
Have you considered adding an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) to your home? This episode covers everything you need to know. Architect Travis Mahoney of Matterform Architecture + Development joins us to share his experience, designing, building, AND living in his own ADU. In this episode we discuss how ADUs largely became prohibited across the U.S., recent code changes, and complexities in design, permitting, construction, and more! Nathaniel Muhler of W.I.T. Studio also shares his experience designing ADUs in Oakland, CA, one of the most expensive cities in the U.S. We also play "What Was That Like?!," asking what was it like getting into architecture school.
