YHauz 3-Room Pavilion
from $150/sf
A typical Hawaii ADU runs $350–500 per square foot. The YHauz Pavilion starts at $150 — shipped flat-packed and bolted together on a lot you own or lease.
Start with a dry, relocatable pavilion on permeable Trex composite floors — steel frame, insulated panels, built-in ventilation, and no permanent plumbing, sewer, or built-in kitchen. That pavilion is what we sell. Use it now as a home office, studio, guest space, gym, or retreat — and when your site, budget, and approvals are ready, we help you add shower, toilet, or kitchen components.

A YHauz That Holds Up
Storm-Ready

Ceiling-and-window fans keep fresh air moving — comfortable without A/C.
Things Only a YHauz Can Do
Relocate It
Unbolt it and move the whole pavilion to a new lot.

Every pavilion includes:
Trex Composite Permeable Floors
Non-Toxic Build
YHauz Fire Insurance
25-Year Structural Warranty
All Engineering Papers

An Interior That Reconfigures
Start Open
One open studio — nothing in the way, full of light and air.
Divide It
Bolt in partition panels to carve out a focused office or separate work zones.
Reconfigure Anytime
Move the panels as your needs change — no demolition, no rebuild.
Permeable Trex Composite Floors
Every YHauz stands on permeable Trex composite floor boards — gapped decking that lets air and water pass through instead of trapping moisture. You get a durable, low-maintenance walking surface with the warm look of wood, better resistance to wear, splintering, rot, and pests than conventional flooring — and the floor that makes a YHauz a pavilion.
We Sell the Pavilion. We Help You Add the Rest.
Shower
Add a shower when water, drainage, and site approvals make sense — we help you plan the connections and the install.
Toilet
Keep the first installation simple. If your county and site conditions allow, we help you choose and add the right toilet setup later.
Kitchen
Begin as a non-dwelling pavilion. If you later choose to expand the use, we help you add a compact kitchen the right way.

Every Worry, Answered Straight
Can I use it open or closed?
Both. Open the doors for cross-breeze, or close up and run the ceiling-and-window fans. Ideal as a home office, studio, gym, guest space, or retreat.
Am I stuck in one spot?
Never. It's demountable — about 8 metric tons that disassembles and relocates with you.
Why start without plumbing or a kitchen?
Because a dry accessory pavilion is a simpler first step than a full dwelling. Start with space you can use now — office, studio, gym, retreat — then add shower, toilet, or kitchen components later if your site, budget, and county approvals support it. We help you plan each addition.
Can I actually afford it?
From $150 per square foot, well under a typical Hawaii ADU. Financing available — ask us on WhatsApp for a quote.
Do I need a contractor crew?
Ships flat-packed and bolts together. Assemble it yourself or bring in a YHauz-trained installer.
Will it look like a metal shed?
Factory stucco-finish walls, Trex composite permeable floors, and a hammered-copper frame. Engineered to be beautiful, not industrial.
