Meeting ID: 885 7456 5250
Passcode: 870857

We will be asking her the following questions:

Types of tiny homes

Tiny Home on Wheels – opportunities for architects?

Foundation Based – tiny home, ADU, JADU, Modular built       

Design for Small Space – best practices, your recommendations

Some ideas for your presentation:

1. Clients:  Who are the major clients? 
2. Bay Area Cities and Permit Issues
3. Site location:  over her years of experience, what is the best location for an ADU/tiny home if the site is big enough to allow some options?
4. Square Feet/size:  Does Lindsey have an optimum size she recommends, again assuming that the property is big enough for some different sizes. 
5. Height:  Tiny homes have lofts/bedroom mezzanines, do clients prefer a formal 2nd story?  
6. Length of construction:  stick-built vs tiny home.
7. Fees:  what do clients either request or expect to pay for design fees?
8. Car Parking:  many communities have waived care parking requirements.  However, subdivisions with lots of ADUs often have crowded streets with lots of cars in the street.  How can this be mitigated? 
9. Insurance.  Which type gets home insurance?  What certifications does a tiny home need to get coverage?
