LOS ANGELES, CA., JUNE 06, 2021 - Pastor Lee Alvarado, 9, Ct, and Kika Mei Alvarado, 4, running on the boardwalk-like towards the ADU of Pastor Alvarado, Rt, and Gennifer Leong-Alvarado in Atwater. The couple, who live in the small house with their two kids, use the ADU as an office, and a place for their visiting parents to stay. Pastor, a producer, says he feels like he is going to the office when he leaves the house - via a wooden path that looks and feels a boardwalk. The ADU was designed by Rebecca Rudolph, co-founder of "Design, Bitches." (Photo by Ricardo DeAratanha/Los Angeles Times)
