A compact ADU built on a dramatic ridgeline floats over L.A.
Architects FreelandBuck help two teachers create a stunning 400-square-foot ADU that appears to float above the Eagle Rock and Highland Park ridgelines.
The Los Angeles Times recently highlighted a creative residential project in Eagle Rock where architects FreelandBuck designed a 400-square-foot accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The structure was built atop an existing two-car garage, utilizing the site's dramatic ridgeline to create the illusion that the home is floating above the surrounding neighborhood.
Designed for two local teachers, the project demonstrates how innovative architecture can maximize small, challenging footprints. By elevating the living space, the architects provided the homeowners with expansive views of the valley while maintaining a compact, efficient footprint that integrates seamlessly with their existing Midcentury residence.
