The Lake Michigan Loft

Discover what we believe to be the most efficient design for the largest ADU allowed on most lots. This 832-square-foot unit sits above a three-stall garage, making it an ideal choice for alley-access lots. If you already have rear parking and want to keep it, this ADU lets you add living space without sacrificing off-street parking—a smart use of lot space. Plus, if Grand Rapids allows multiple ADUs in the future, the existing garage could easily be converted into a second unit, since the shell is already in place.

The Kitch-iti-kipi

Looking for a way to keep a loved one close while giving them a space of their own? Or perhaps you’re ready to downsize while staying in your neighborhood and renting out your primary home? This spacious one-bedroom offers the perfect balance of privacy and connection. Step inside to find a bright, open layout that extends seamlessly into the outdoors. A private back patio creates a peaceful retreat, especially when paired with a tall backyard fence, transforming the space into a semi-private oasis.


It looks like we don’t have a plan that matches your filters, but we’d love to help create something that does. Reach out and share your ideas with us!
