Guest houses, studios, and income units — designed, permitted, and built with the same standard as the main residence.
An ADU is not an afterthought. It is a second architecture on your property, and it deserves the same care.
An accessory dwelling unit is one of the smartest ways to add living space and long-term value to a Pasadena property — as a rental, a place for family, or a dedicated workspace.
Every lot is different. ADU rules depend on zoning, lot size, setbacks, and whether a property is in a historic district. We review your property, explain what is feasible, and coordinate designers and engineers so your project moves smoothly through plan check and construction.

Stand-alone units with their own entrance and full amenities.
Units connected to your home with private access.
