The HK House and ADU is a three-story residence located on a hillside lot in Mt. Washington.

The residence consists of a single family home with an attached JADU, and two-story ADU on the first and second floor, that are both to be rented by separate inhabitants.

The residence is boomerang shaped to fit on a steep hillside lot with skewed property lines. The home’s south wing is rotated 45 degrees towards the view. The middle of home is parallel to the slope, creating an efficient structure that fits snugly within the site’s zoning envelope.
