Senior ADU Greenhouse Home

How can architecture help us care for our aging parents? In this video, I explore a personal design for a Family Cohousing Greenhouse Home, an innovative solution for multi-generational living and aging in place. We'll tour this concept, which combines a main house with a prefabricated, accessible Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in the backyard. The two homes are connected by a beautiful, shared greenhouse, creating a vibrant common space that fosters connection and community. If you're inspired by modern architecture, sustainable design, or looking for ideas on how to create a supportive family home, this is a concept you won't want to miss.

I'll show you how the shared greenhouse provides a safe, all-weather connection between the homes and creates a social hub with facing patios and a central garden. We'll then step inside the 640-square-foot ADU to see its fully accessible layout, including a roll-in shower and thoughtful details designed for independent living.
