Recently we’ve been admiring the Soot House, a charred-black structure on Spruce Head in Maine, hand-built by sculptor turned builder Anthony Esteves. The interiors are artful and sculptural (take a full tour on Remodelista), but we’re admiring in particular Esteves’s clever takes on storage. At just under 600 square feet, and designed with tightness and warmth in mind, the project required inventive found storage and artful built-ins to accommodate Esteves and his young family. Here are our four favorite ideas to steal.
