PALO ALTO - California's housing crisis has innovators thinking outside the box to come up with solutions from many angles. In Palo Alto, one architect has a novel plan to help multigenerational households.

Architect Derek Ouyang and his team are making tweaks to their "plug-in" garage A-D-U conversion kit called Aduo.
