Outside In
In Searcy, designer Meridith Ranouil creates a warm, contemporary family home that blurs the boundary between interior and exterior
After connecting with Kirk and Kristen Smith through a past client, interior designer Meridith Ranouil began working with the couple before they broke ground on their new build in Searcy. While the plans had already been drawn, Meridith was able to consult with builder Jackie Stevens of Stevens Custom Homes to finalize layout and select materials. Together, they customized every element of the home. “I had so much fun working with Jackie,” Meridith says. “He and I really worked hand in hand. I think that contributed to this house feeling so comfortable and warm and really making sense.”

Lovingly Refreshed
For Melissa Hall Simmons, redecorating her former Fayetteville home for new owners was a joyful collaboration
As interior designer Melissa Hall Simmons prepared to put her Fayetteville home on the market, her real estate agent called and asked to show the house to a prospective couple the next day. The couple quickly made an offer and then asked Melissa to help them redecorate, which she says was “the most wonderful opportunity ever.” Melissa designed the house herself from the ground up and called it home for nearly a decade, making her involvement in its new form that much more meaningful. “I actually drew the plans for this house when I was 25, and I fully designed every detail of it,” she says. “It was my first project. It’s what started my business. I was so excited to pass it on to this couple who loves it as much as I do.”

Test Kitchen
Self-taught home chef Marquis Brown finds joy in cooking for others
When Marquis Brown was young he was intimidated by the kitchen, often viewing it as the domain of his mother and grandmother. “The kitchen just had such a female-dominated presence in our family,” he says. But that hesitance didn’t last forever. The 30-year-old (who’s an architect by trade) eventually taught himself how to cook, starting with breakfast foods and making meals for friends and family. “I love food so I figured, why not learn how to make it?” he says. “Seeing my mom and grandmother prepare food was an inspiration. They were feeding their family and there’s a lot of gratitude that comes from that.”

When Fayetteville-based designer Marie Jeffery’s good friends reached out to her to update their primary bed and bathroom, Marie focused first on function, considering how to improve upon the suite’s original design. “It was the funniest layout,” she recalls. “The bathroom is enormous, and the ceiling is really tall, so there was a lot of unused space.”
