Wedgewood Backyard Cottage & Second Floor Addition

​With integral color heated concrete floors, advanced "smart" framing and rain screen siding, this 800sf backyard cottage (Detached ADU) is one of the first approved by Seattle to add density.  3 french doors open up to the backyard extending the living area. The open Living/Dining/Kitchen can adjust as needs change, from temporary home for family of 4 during main house construction to future mother-in-law unit.  Qualifies for Built Green 4 stars. The clients have chickens and a pizza oven, reinforcing the idea of "YES IN MY BACKYARD"!

Published in Governing Magazine and City of Seattle's Director's Report on Removing Barriers to Backyard Cottages.
