Modative was recently featured in the October 2018 issue of Architectural Record (a favorite magazine amongst us architecture nerds) in [an article about the rising interest in Accessory Dwellings](https://www.architecturalrecord.com/articles/13645-architects-respond-to-rising-interest-in-accessory-dwellings), a.k.a ADUs.

The [article](https://www.architecturalrecord.com/articles/13645-architects-respond-to-rising-interest-in-accessory-dwellings) describes our partnership with [United Dwelling](https://www.uniteddwelling.com/) to provide high quality and affordable homes through ADU Garage Conversions.  We are very enthusiastic about this business model to provide low cost housing and help alleviate the housing crisis in Los Angeles. Aside from our partnership with United Dwelling, we are also currently offering this same garage conversion to the public in a limited area within the Los Angeles basin. See our [ADU Garage Conversion page](https://www.modative.com/garage-conversions-los-angeles-accessory-dwelling-units-backyard-homes-granny-flats) for more information. So, now we are offering design/build services on both [ground-up ADU Models](https://www.modative.com/adu-models-los-angeles-accessory-dwelling-units-semi-custom-granny-flats) and [Garage Conversions](https://www.modative.com/garage-conversions-los-angeles-accessory-dwelling-units-backyard-homes-granny-flats).
