A patio of permeable grating sits at the center of Le Pham and Mai Tran’s live/work ADU in Albany, California. The couple, who formed their architectural practice, 3R Studio, in 2014, bonded over their mutual love of architect Peter Zumthor’s designs while working together at a firm in Vietnam.

The exterior is clad in Kebony wood.

Large bi-fold doors and an operable skylight fill the backyard space with natural light.

A concealed door hides a storage space.

What’s Mattias’ favorite feature? The custom pull-up bar, of course. “I guess it’s the little personal details that make each pod’s design reflect the character of their owners,” says Home.

In between the private and entertaining areas sits a dining courtyard.

The kitchen is equipped with Wolf and Subzero appliances along with and custom USM cabinetry.

Philip Johnson was one of the 20th century's most acclaimed architects. His most widely known design is “The Glass House” in Connecticut.
