You don’t just need a contractor—you need a properly engineered garage-to-apartment conversion that is space-efficient, code-aware, and fully buildable without on-site confusion or redesign delays. That’s exactly what I focus on. I work on residential space transformations, where the priority is turning existing structures into fully functional living units with smart zoning, efficient circulation, and practical integration of kitchen, bedrooms, and services. My approach is build-focused from day one—ensuring layout logic, material choices, and construction sequencing are all considered so the final result is not just visually appealing, but realistic and executable. What I can deliver/support: • Efficient open-concept 2-bedroom layout design • Kitchen + bathroom planning with proper service coordination • Space optimization for compact residential conversion • Flooring (hardwood) integration and detailing • Clear, build-ready layout direction for execution You can review similar residential renovation work on my profile with 5★ client feedback. If you’re looking for a well-planned, functional conversion that maximizes space and avoids construction issues, I’m ready to proceed.

With over a decade of experience in architectural design, I am confident that I possess the skills necessary to complete your garage conversion project to perfection. My background in both residential and commercial projects, as well as my expertise in interior and exterior design, allows for the seamless transition from garage to comfortable apartment. A huge asset is my vast knowledge of local building codes and permits. With minor variations in different regions, understanding and applying these codes is pivotal to any successful conversion process. My experience with performing structural engineering also guarantees that the necessary adaptations are up to code and executed safely. What really sets me apart is my ability to provide comprehensive services from conceptual design to final execution. From space planning and 2D drawings with electrical, plumbing and structural layouts, to realistic 3D renderings using SketchUp, Lumion, 3ds Max and D5, I can assure you'll get a clear visual representation of the end result even before construction begins. The combination of my innovative design skills and your unique vision will yield a delightful transformation that won't just meet your expectations but exceed them. Let's bring your vision to life!

I have successfully completed several garage-to-ADU conversions where the primary challenge was maximizing a compact footprint without sacrificing the open-concept feel you are looking for. On a recent project, I transformed a double-car garage into a luxury two-bedroom unit by utilizing strategic structural headers to create a sense of volume and flow. I understand the specific complexities of these builds, from leveling existing concrete slabs to ensuring all thermal and moisture barriers meet strict residential building codes to ensure long-term habitability. My technical approach begins with a subsurface plumbing assessment to determine the most cost-effective routing for the kitchen and bathroom wet walls. To achieve the open-concept layout, I will evaluate the existing roof trusses to see if we can remove center supports in favor of engineered LVL beams, ensuring structural integrity for the 2-bedroom configuration. I utilize closed-cell spray foam insulation to maximize R-value within the limited wall depth of garage framing, paired with a subfloor vapor barrier to prevent moisture wicking from the slab. Finally, I will integrate a multi-zone mini-split system for climate control and ensure all egress windows comply with safety regulations. Do you currently have a site plan or floor dimensions that I could review to start drafting a preliminary layout? I am also curious if the current electrical service has the headroom for the added load of a full kitchen, or if we should factor in a panel upgrade. I’d love to hop on a quick call or chat here to align on your desired finish level and timeline for the transformation.
