Den Outdoors provides plans and permitting assistance for accessory dwelling units, or ADUs.
The company has 38 different models that range from 200 square feet to more than 2,000 square feet.

These accessory dwelling units, also known as ADUs, have become increasingly popular during the pandemic as Americans reimagine homeownership.

ADUs, including the homes that Den designs, have a different address from the main house on the property.
Den has 38 basic floor plans but customers can customize their ADUs based on their needs, founder Michael Romanowicz told Insider.

To begin the process, they can select a homebuilding kit on the company's website.
The company's homebuilding kits provide customers with detailed construction layouts and a step-by-step guide on how to build.
Customers can choose between two different homebuilding kits: the starter kit ($199) and the complete package ( $1,995 to $4,195).

The starter kit includes information on elevation, foundation requirements, and window and door installations.
The complete package features everything in the starter kit with the addition of roof and floor planning, a 3D model, electrical and plumbing details, and equipment to execute the project.
The building kits also provides customers a non-transferable license that, depending on local ordinances, can act as authorization to build a single ADU on their property.The Dean family poses in front of their A-frame home.

According to Den, the materials needed to build the home can be locally sourced, making it one of the easier models to construct.
The model comes with two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a kitchen, a laundry closet, and floor-to-ceiling windows.

It's an upgrade of one of Den's original models, and has been the blueprint for many of the company's recent designs.
