No stairs, ever

Everything is on one level — the bedroom, bath, and kitchen are all a few steps apart. Easier to live in, easier to age in place.

Easy permitting

A single-story footprint tends to move through ADU review more predictably than a two-story design — one less variable in your feasibility study.

Built for rental income

At 480 sq ft with a real bedroom and full kitchen, the Escape Pod is sized right for long-term or short-term rental — or a family member who wants their own space close by.

Same offsite build quality

Wall panels, floor panels, roof panels, and bath pod are built in-house offsite for a cost estimate that holds.
