Under-stairs storage cupboards are often an afterthought when planning home renovations. Under The Stairs, a series of 8 installations, using often-overlooked storage spaces and each imagined by a different interior designer, will be on display only at Grand Designs Live, from 4th – 12th May 2019. Focusing on the increase in the use of unconventional spaces, this competition invited 8 pioneering interior stylists to bring their ideas to life at the show; producing a celebration of unique, individual spaces in the home. From bold colours to fabulous textures, these small spaces aren’t afraid of making a statement and are sure to spark the creativity of every visitor.

Chloe Spillett of Chloe Gets Creative’s under the stairs Kids Clubhouse was named as the overall winner by a panel of judges. Barbara Chandler of the London Evening Standard and one of the judges commented; ‘The choice was a very difficult one as we felt each design was so well thought-out, creative and beautifully executed. So many of our visitors have homes with this kind of space available, so this project has been incredibly inspiring for many. We felt that Chloe’s design, rather than trying to disguise the triangular shape of the space, celebrated it! The overall effect was very inviting, fun and not too closed in, making it a great space for kids to play in. This idea is relevant to so many of our visitors who have families, and we felt it was an achievable idea for mums and dads, and grandparents alike!’
