How the adu backyard cottage visualizer works
You upload one photo of your backyard and choose what to change. The tool changes only the backyard and keeps everything else the same.
Each run makes one image. Run it with other options to compare, then keep the one you like.
1
Use a clear photo
A photo of the whole backyard from the house or a corner, with the free area visible.
2
Try more than one option
Run a few colours or styles and compare them side by side before you decide.
3
Use it before you spend money
A picture is cheap to change. A real backyard is not.
4
It is a preview
The picture shows a look. It is not a quote, a plan or a survey.
The backyard options
4 modes plus your own.
1
Backyard Cottage
Small guest house.
2
Studio or Office
Backyard office or studio.
3
Garage Conversion
Turn the garage into a unit.
4
Tiny House
Compact cabin style.
5
Your own description
Describe the change yourself.
Honest limits
It shows a backyard on your photo. It is not a measured quote or a plan.
Sizes, spacing and exact products are approximate.
It does not check setbacks, size limits, utilities, permits or zoning; a builder, an architect and your local planning office must.
Everything else should stay the same; compare the result with your photo.
