Raised Bed Drawers
Guidance Document
If you’re looking for a way to save space in a compact bedroom without losing storage space, this raised bed platform might be just what you need. Built on top of base kitchen cabinets, the drawer storage available under a queen size mattress is equivalent to about 2.5 standard dressers.

I'm always sketching! I'll add my favorites periodically, so check back for new plan ideas. If any of these pique your interest, please use the Contact Page and we'll prioritize it for further development.
Advenure 1502
Guest house with 2-4 BR and 3BA. Great for short and long term visits from blended families. Works as an ADU or a standalone AirBnB or VRBO.
This guest house can be built in your back yard to provide flexibility for various combinations of adults and kids to crash in small rooms. Two mirror-image bedrooms with full baths provide room for two couples on the ground floor, with a flexible haven for kids upstairs. Choose anywhere from 2-4 bedrooms upstairs with a split bath and play area to adapt to your needs.
Islander 1500
3 BR / 1.5 BA house designed for a lot with a water view out the back and as a gathering spot. With a plethora of hang-out spaces, the party starts here!
This house started with a kitchen designed for 2-3 people to share in the food prep, which inspired a first floor that is designed around a party. With a contiguous dining/kitchen for a free flow of conversation, to a living room that can be closed off to contain noise (or for guests to crash overnight), to a hierarchy of three outdoor spaces, the plan encourages small groups of people to socialize and enjoy some exotic destination.
Savannah 941
2 BR / Split BA Accessible Cottage
Designed for a couple, one of whom may use a walker or wheelchair.
Fully accessible kitchen design.
Only slightly larger than the Savannah 800, this two-bedroom version give just a little more elbow room for folks who don't what to downsize quite so far. Having a second bedroom is handy as a guest room or home office. And some happy couples just like to sleep separately because of snoring, pets, or any number of legitimate reasons.
Boomerang 912

This plan was sketched for a single mom who wanted to live in a tiny home, and was anticipating that her son would live with her after returning from college. She'd get the two story cottage and he'd get the bedroom suite. It would also work nicely for a couple living in the suite with a teenager or two younger kids in the attic. Or if the owner(s) have no kids at home, they can treat the suite as guest accommodations, or even rent it out.
