A San Jose homeowner wanted to build an ADU for his aging mother, but also hoped to retain his much-used backyard space. He found an architect on the Cottage platform to help him achieve exactly what he wanted: a comfortable place for his mother to live, that retained his outdoor gathering space through an L-shaped structure.
