The Build Small Live Large Summit is a gathering place for visionary leaders and policymakers from around the country and across sectors to explore smaller homes as a promising local response to housing shortages and climate change. Smaller homes use less energy and materials, add to the supply of housing options in walkable, high-opportunity neighborhoods, offer flexibility as households change over time, and provide homeowners with a way to offset their mortgages with rental income. This video archive represents the 2017 Summit, which focused on homes most commonly referred to as accessory dwelling units, or ADUs. Common names for ADUs include backyard cottages, granny flats, mother in law apartments, laneway housing, garage studios, and attic and basement apartments.
