More than you might want to read about ADU's, compilation of information and resources gathered by ArcWest Architects. Look for new blog on our website coming this week that will provide more detail about ADU laws and zoning requirements in Denver. Online references: https://lnkd.in/gwGwvfK8 https://lnkd.in/gxKNRnsM https://lnkd.in/gBBDEVTN https://lnkd.in/gcDSAPwm https://lnkd.in/dar_9Hj The most recent (11/2024) Colorado legislation requires cities of certain size thresholds to allow ADUs. This (House Bill 24-1152 ) requires jurisdictions to remove “restrictive design or dimension standards”. Note: This is like Oregon and Washington. To remove “restrictive design or dimension standards “, subject jurisdictions must: § Allow an ADU of up to at least 500 sq ft. § Not require off-street parking § Not require the owner to occupy the property. § Reduce side and rear setbacks to 5ft (with some sub-optimal caveats) § Not have minimum lot size requirements § Not have special design standards for prefab ADUs (though Building Code standards will still be enforced) #ArcWestADU #ArcWestArchitects #DesignbyArcWest

ArcWest Architects is excited to have the opportunity to collaborate with this great team for this unique solution to infill (ADU) living units with hopes of addressing the high demand for more affordable housing.
As cities grow and housing demands rise, innovation is essential. At Addazu, we’re tackling the affordable housing crisis head-on with our Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) — a flexible, sustainable, and cost-effective solution for urban living. Developed in collaboration with ArcWest Architects, Inc., Vastyan Construction, and Douglass Colony Group, this ADU combines thoughtful design and modular construction to create a studio-style living space above a two-car garage. By maximizing property usability and fast-tracking permitting processes, we’re enabling property owners to: ✅ Add density without extensive land development ✅ Customize layouts, finishes, and modern design features ✅ Reduce construction costs and timelines ✅ Support sustainability with energy-efficient materials Whether for rental income, guest space, or extended family housing, the Addazu ADU is more than a structure—it’s a game-changer for urban housing. We’re proud to be Smart Futures Lab graduates and Colorado Smart Cities Alliance members, leveraging innovation to solve real-world challenges. Ready to rethink your property’s potential?
