Alcatraz ADU
2018 Remmies Award Winner
This beautiful "Accessory Dwelling Unit" or ADU was a fantastic collaboration between local Architect, Carrie Shores of Inspired Independence, and HDR Remodeling.
The client owned a property in Oakland where her adult son and grandson lived. She lived in Wyoming at the time but was ready to downsize to a smaller footprint, and wanted to be part of the family's day-to-day.
The home was designed for aging-in-place, which meant no tiny house ladders or lofts. The ADU was designed with zero threshold transitions, contrasting floors and counters, a roll in shower, and many more features to accommodate aging-in-place.
