The Sunset BUD Studio is the smallest variant in the Sunset BUD LivingHome series, a collaboration between Burdge Architects (Malibu), Sunset magazine and Plant Prefab. Developed in response to California wildfire risk, it uses fire resistant aluminum siding, doors and roofing and includes an optional Murphy bed and German plumbing fixtures. Hard costs cover factory fabrication, transport, installation and sitework.
What We Love
Aluminum siding, doors and roofing throughout is not an aesthetic choice: the Sunset BUD Studio was designed specifically for California wildfire zones, and the fire resistant envelope is built in as standard rather than offered as an option after the fact.
