A Refined Approach to Accessory Dwelling Units

An ADU should be more than a small building in your backyard—it should be a thoughtfully crafted space that elevates your property’s functionality, value, and lifestyle. At Lauri Morrison Studio, we design ADUs that are elegant, efficient, and tailored to both the site and the way you intend to live. Whether you need a guest house, private office, gym, or poolside cabana, our approach ensures your ADU feels like an intentional extension of your home—not an afterthought.

The Signature Lauri Morrison ADU

Practical. Functional. Luxuriously Livable.

  • Size & Layout: 850 sq ft one-bedroom | 1,000 sq ft two-bedroom
  • Living Experience: Vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows flood the living room with natural light
  • Indoor–Outdoor Flow: Expansive glazed doors connect interiors directly to the outdoors
  • Private Retreat: Bedroom planned for a king bed with generous closet space
  • Full Bath: Combination tub/shower and a niche for full‑sized stacked laundry machines
  • Flexible Design: Modifications for larger living areas, added bedrooms, or enhanced finishes

Our ADUs are designed to feel open and expansive, even on tight sites. On larger properties, we can extend the layout, add bedrooms or bathrooms, and customize every finish to match your vision.
