Hubbell and Hubbell is thrilled to announce that we won the ADU Award for the Design of the Best Renovation of Existing Structures! Our Sunshine Companion Unit in Lemon Grove wished to build an ADU that would allow them to rent out the space while maintaining the privacy of their own home. We designed a bright and welcoming 576 SF unit above the existing detached garage maximizing south-facing views. While admitting the amazing San Diego sunshine, it is also well-ventilated to cool the space. The living room is separated from the bedroom by a rustic 9 1/2 foot sliding wooden door, allowing privacy from the main living area if wanted and flexibility in the layout and openness of the space. The design of the unit creates a spacious feeling with industrial and rustic touches and appliances throughout.

More than 375 groups attended the Virtual Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Coalition Awards. Of 15 Categories, 41 unique ADU projects were recognized in the built methods of Design, Stick Built and Pre-Fab ADUs. Check out the winners here.

We have worked on dozens of ADUs for people looking for a place for their parents or their grown children to live nearby, for a rental space, and for just an extra space in the backyard.
