This 450-square-foot Accessory Dwelling Unit in Riverside is designed to balance privacy and connection between the main home and a new, independent living space. Thoughtful placement on the site preserves separation for both residents while maintaining subtle visual links through shared outdoor areas and coordinated landscaping.

The modern exterior features clean lines, simple geometry, and a restrained palette that complements the existing house without duplicating it. Large windows and screened openings bring in natural light while maintaining privacy from the main residence and neighboring properties.

Inside, the interior comes alive with warm materials, layered textures, and playful accents that contrast the minimalist façade. The open layout integrates a compact kitchen, living space, bedroom, and bathroom, maximizing every square foot for comfort and flexibility
