What’s included in our ADU design services?

Development Potential Analysis

A formal feasibility and regulation audit. It clarifies the allowed uses, maximum allowable size, and the optimal development pathway (such as ADU, JADU, SB 9, or AUD) for your parcel, complete with a preliminary proposed site plan.

As-Built Drawings

A high-precision digital survey of your existing property. Through comprehensive field measurements of property lines, structural boundaries, and architectural layouts, you will receive the verified baseline site plan and floor plan required for design.

ADU Designs

A bespoke architectural concept and space planning service. Through close collaboration to refine personalized interior layouts and aesthetic features, you will receive a full programmatic set including the Site Plan, Floor Plan, Roof Plan, and Exterior Elevations.

Technical Drafting

An advanced technical engineering and code compliance process. As our professional team translates architectural concepts into rigorous construction documents, you will receive the full construction package (Structural Plans, Structural Calculations, Electrical Plan, and Title 24 report), as well as authorized professional engineering stamps.

Plan Permit Processing

A comprehensive municipal liaison and agency coordination service. By managing the formal submittal to the building department and clearing all plan checker corrections, you will receive the final city-approved blueprint package, as well as your legally authorized building permit (Permit).
