Posts Tagged ‘small bathroom’

I am finally getting around to sharing the photos of this recent 440 SF Accessory Dwelling Unit. It is an unusual shape due to many constraints including preserving the bay views from the main house, and preserving as much garden as possible. It is also located on an active landslide and in a wildland -urban interface with strict wild fire safety provisions.

First trick – if you barely have room for the bed best to have the foot accessible so two can access. (If only one side)

Also two small comforters rather than a big shared one makes it easier to not disrupt the other person when you go to bed late.

Second – small bathroom trick that seems common in Scandinavia – the whole bathroom shower

in this one the toilet gets washed everytime you take a shower! (best if the tp is protected from splash)

This apartment also has a great shared private courtyard in the back. Ill post some pics tomorrow.
