Brad Smith’s compact former coach house, tucked away in one of London’s many hidden cobbled mews, got a radical overhaul from Scape Architects. Carving out every possible nook for storage, the staircase acts as both room divider and organizer. The stair “carpet” is made from the same tough rubber that is used to make tires for semis.

Brad Smith’s compact former coach house, tucked away in one of London’s many hidden cobbled mews, was in need of a radical over-haul when his partner Brian Brennan moved in. Scape Architects remodeled inside and out to maximize both space and light, redesigning the property around the pair’s possessions and utilizing every available void for storage.
