Senate Bill 9, just signed into law by Governor Newsom, will make it easier to build smaller second units on what are now single-family properties!

The bill, which will take effect Jan. 1, 2022, will effectively put an end to traditional single-family zoning restrictions as we know it in most neighborhoods statewide.

Why not start planning your venture into this new zoning opportunity? Give us a call to discuss.

Architecture, designing, and building is a family business here at SM DesignBuild. Pictured is the drafting table of our fearless leader’s father. We’re proud to keep the tradition alive with our local, family run business.

There are many reasons we’re huge fans of ADUs. They provide more housing options, generate additional income for owners, efficiently use space, enable multigenerational living, and much more!

Take a look at this week’s featured backyard! The custom stone pool matched with the foliage brings peace and serenity to this home. What’s your favorite part of this tropical backyard?

Have you ever wondered how an architecture firm takes a design from a concept through complete ex*****on? Check out this model for the castle project we are using to help us better visualize volumes and details through the construction. We will continue to post updates on this unique project.

A little behind the scenes action! Here we are doing an outdoor conference while working on the castle project in San Diego. A pandemic isn’t going to stop us from bringing our client’s dreams to life!
