Does the following help?

%%%%
\version "2.19.82"

scaleByStaffSpace = #(define-scheme-function (value) (number?)
  (lambda (grob) (* value (ly:staff-symbol-staff-space grob))))

\layout { \context { \Staff
  \override TupletBracket.padding = \scaleByStaffSpace #1.1
} }

music = \fixed c' { d4 \tuplet 3/2 { g8 a b } fis2 }

#(define phi (/ (+ (sqrt 5) 1) 2))
\new Staff \with { \magnifyStaff $(/ phi) } \music
\new Staff \music
\new Staff \with { \magnifyStaff $phi } \music
%%%%
