ADU Lessons from Los Angeles
In 2019, Alexis Navarro set out to fix a problem that had plagued his rental property for years: inefficient design.
As a professor of architecture and design with a working-class background, he says he found himself thinking: “‘How can I design and build something that is low-cost and attractive for people who can’t afford quality living spaces?’ That’s what prompted me to build an ADU.” Read about Navarro's strategies for minimizing costs for building and operation: Los Angeles Times.
On March 5, the city of Los Angeles launched an initiative, the ADU Standard Plan Program, that offers homeowners and builders access to a variety of pre-approved ADU building plans and designs that allow for faster permitting.
