CAN I BUILD AN ADU ON MY PROPERTY?

Maybe.

It depends on your property—but just as importantly, it depends on what you’re trying to accomplish.

More space for family? A private workspace? Rental income? More independence for someone you love?

Sometimes an ADU is the right answer. Sometimes there’s a better solution.

That’s why we start with the need, evaluate the property, and then determine what makes sense.

**Your needs come first. The solution comes second.**

Before you build, let’s talk.

A GOOD ADDITION SHOULDN'T LOOK LIKE AN ADDITION.

When adding to an existing home, making the floor plan work is only part of the design.

The rooflines, columns, proportions, materials and architectural details all have to work with the existing house.

On this family-room addition and covered patio, we paid particular attention to those details—including how the new roof and exposed rafters connected with the existing architecture.

The goal wasn't to make the addition stand out.
The goal was to make it feel like it had always been there.

That's the difference thoughtful design can make.

HE WANTED MORE ROOM.
BUT MORE SQUARE FOOTAGE WASN'T THE WHOLE ANSWER.
A homeowner contacted me wanting to expand his family/TV room by partially enclosing the existing covered patio.
Before I started drawing, I wanted to understand how they used the house—and what this space could really become.
The backyard and pool presented a great opportunity, but the orientation of the house presented a challenge: Arizona's summer sun would hit the new space directly.
Instead of simply enclosing the patio, we designed an approximately 480-square-foot family-room addition with a new covered patio, creating a much stronger connection between the home, backyard and pool while protecting the new space from the sun.
We also replaced the original 8-foot ceiling with a 10-foot vaulted ceiling, giving the room a sense of space that feels much larger than its actual footprint.
And the exterior was designed to belong to the existing house—not look like something added years later.
That's the difference between adding square footage and designing space.
Good residential design doesn't start with drawing.
It starts with understanding what you're really trying to accomplish.

REMEMBER WHEN WE CALLED IT A CASITA?

For years, we called it a casita.

Today, you may hear the term ADU — Accessory Dwelling Unit.

But the idea has evolved.

A modern ADU can provide privacy, independence and flexibility for family, guests, work or even rental income.

So instead of asking:

“Do I need an ADU?”

Maybe the better question is:

“What could an independent space do for me and my family?”

That's where the conversation starts.

Before you build, let's talk.

WHO IS BEHIND XACT ARCHITECTURE?

I'm the designer behind XACT Architecture, and for more than 30 years I've had the opportunity to work with homeowners on all kinds of residential projects throughout the Valley.

Over those years, I've learned something that has become one of the most important parts of the way I work:

What a homeowner thinks they need isn't always the best fit for their specific situation.

My first job isn't to start drawing. It's to start asking questions.

What are you trying to accomplish?

How do you want to live in the space?

What's working?

What's not?

What does the property allow us to do?

And sometimes, after that conversation, we discover an approach the homeowner hadn't considered.

That's the part of architectural design I enjoy most.

Taking someone's needs, ideas and sometimes even problems—and figuring out what's actually possible.

That's what XACT Architecture is about.

🔥 **THEIR HOUSE WAS DESTROYED BY FIRE. BUT REBUILDING THE SAME HOUSE WASN'T THE ANSWER.**

After a devastating fire left the Gomez family's Phoenix home a total loss, they contacted XACT Architecture to help determine what could be salvaged, what needed to be replaced, and what their options were for rebuilding.

The home was an older three-bedroom, two-bath design with a closed-off layout and limited connection between the living spaces and outdoors.

But as we studied the home—and listened to what the homeowners really wanted—we saw something different.

**They didn't just need their old house back.**

They had an opportunity to create a home that worked better for the way they wanted to live.

We rethought the layout, opened up the connection between the kitchen, dining and living areas, strengthened the connection to the outdoors, and created a larger, more private master suite with higher ceilings and improved functionality.

What began as a devastating loss became an opportunity to create something better.

**That's what we believe good residential design is about.**

Not simply drawing walls.

Not simply replacing what was there.

**Listening to the homeowner, understanding how they live, and designing a home around what matters to them.**

Thinking about rebuilding, remodeling, or adding to your home?

**Before you decide what to build, let's talk about what you're really trying to accomplish.**
