About This Plan

The Ethan by Arbor South Architecture is the newest addition to Eugene's pre-approved program and the only plan designed from the ground up for full wheelchair accessibility. At 528 square feet, the single-story studio provides an open living area with zero-step entry, wide doorways, accessible bathroom fixtures, and turning radius clearance in every space.

Arbor South designed The Willow as well, and The Ethan shares that firm's focus on making accessible design look like good design rather than institutional afterthought. The studio layout keeps the floor plan open and flexible, with a full kitchen, sleeping area, and bathroom arranged for clear circulation paths.

For homeowners building an ADU specifically for someone with mobility needs, The Ethan eliminates the custom design process. The accessibility features aren't modifications bolted onto a standard plan. They're built into the architecture from the start, which means no compromises and no wasted square footage on retrofitted solutions.
