Modern Poolside ADU in Los Angeles, CA

This studio ADU in Los Angeles sits next to the pool, with a tall hedge along one side. The outside has dark gray horizontal siding, white trim and copper barn lights over a white half-glass door. Out front is a wood deck with a long table, and across the patio there's built-in lounge seating around a concrete fire pit.

Inside, the living area, bed and kitchen share one open room under a vaulted ceiling with an exposed wood beam and skylights. The floor is polished concrete. The kitchen runs in an L of glossy blue flat-panel cabinets with copper pulls, white uppers and white subway tile up to the ceiling. It has a gas cooktop, a stainless hood, a double wall oven and a copper faucet. Wood barn doors slide open to a closet with built-in shelves and drawers. The bathroom has a mosaic tile shower and a vessel sink.
