Colors drawn from down-to-earth materials—think denim, stone, clay, and brick—set the tone for current paint trends

If you’re ready to step outside the white-and-gray box of recent years and delve into color, this year’s trending tones are a great place to start.

Never say never—that’s the lesson learned by Joy Ellis, owner of Skylark Cafe in Leslie. She was born and raised in the small Ozarks town and during that time, her mom owned a café on Main Street, which she sold when Joy was 16. “She said, ‘Joy, you might want to take this over,’ and I was like, ‘I’m never going to have a restaurant,’” she recalls.

Emily Richards’ work can get pretty messy. As an instructor and manager at The Muddy Pig, a pottery wheel studio in Little Rock, her typical day might include teaching private lessons, leading group classes, or trimming, glazing, and firing pieces made by studio members. It’s a job that requires her to get her hands dirty in the most literal sense—like, clay under the fingernails and splattered on clothes kind of dirty. But it’s all part of an ancient craft she finds joy in both following and teaching.

Susan Walsh transforms a Little Rock home using an elegant blue-and-white palette
Several years ago, the owner of this home in Little Rock’s Heights neighborhood was looking for some help refreshing the recently purchased residence. Her daughter-in-law connected her with designer Susan Walsh, and thus began a yearslong collaboration culminating in an interior that feels dedicated to her favorite color combo.For the overall aesthetic, the client had a simple request. “Her only requirements were blues and whites,” Susan says. “I was curating items for her house, and she understood that it takes time and research, and she was good with that.” They started the project with a meeting at the client’s former home, determining which pieces could translate to the new space. These would become the anchor pieces Susan incorporated into the new house in an updated way.

Inspired by a homeowner’s love of paintings and photography, designer Heather Krijt creates a colorfully sophisticated residence
When Heather Krijt first visited this Little Rock project, she found what was essentially a blank canvas. “The client had been playing golf with my husband and mentioned he could use some help decorating,” she recalls. Desiring to make the house feel cohesive as well as reflective of his style, the homeowner wanted Heather’s help with the entire Heights cottage—particularly the living and entertaining spaces.As they talked, Heather learned her client had an interest in art, a detail she ran with in terms of inspiration. “He asked if I could help him procure a few pieces, and this became the genesis for the entire design,” she says. “I was an art history minor so I love using art as a starting point,” she adds, noting she has developed gallery relationships all over the U.S.

A blue-and-white color palette fills a pool house in Conway with classic style
For interior designer Jill Lawrence, designing a pool house offers a chance to let loose and create a milieu that’s more relaxed and even a bit whimsical. Indeed, that was the environment her clients, a couple with three children, envisioned when they recruited her to select finishes and furnishings for their new backyard hangout.Designed by H+N Architects, the pool house’s glass-paned garage doors drench the atrium-like interior with natural daylight. The open concept allows the clients’ gatherings to spill outside, where the designer incorporated woven furnishings around the pool. “It’s a little more playful than the main house and has a staycation feel,” Jill says of the aesthetic.
