Design Samples

Due to the complex nature of designing a sidekick to fit well in an existing environment in relation to the main home and landscaping, as well as meeting the goals of privacy and maximization of indoor and outdoor space, most homeowners opt to work with a designer to customize their floorplans. These floorplan samples are meant to be a starting point for generating ideas.

We look forward to helping you design a sidekick that best suits your needs.
