Calming Trend
Designer Laure Antonetti Schutze brings color and order to a Little Rock family’s kitchen
Years ago, fate brought designer Laure Antonetti Schutze and her clients Kim and Charles Glenn together when Kim reached out to an online service for a den makeover. While the entire exchange took place over email, she and Laure soon figured out they lived just 10 minutes from one another. Needless to say, a relationship formed and when the Glenns were ready to renovate their kitchen, they already had a local designer in mind.

In Their Own Backyard
Amy Baker Designs maximizes the potential—and personality—of a family home on Lake Hamilton
With five children between them and a love of entertaining, Miki and Bryan Hiller knew they would need to find someplace special when they started looking for a waterfront home in Hot Springs. “We wanted a really great view and deep water, but also somewhere quiet enough that I wouldn’t have to worry about the kids swimming and boats coming by,” Miki says. When this house in a quiet cove came on the market, they didn’t care what it looked like—they jumped at the opportunity for their dream location on the lake.Recognizing the residence would need a major overhaul, the Hillers brought in Rusty Rogers of Rogers Construction to help transform its outdated floor plan into something better suited to their family and style. The improvements included bumping out one wall to allow for a larger kitchen as well as an open floor plan that’s conducive for both school nights and social gatherings. For help finishing out the interiors, a mutual friend connected Miki with Hot Springs designer Amy Baker, who also lives full-time on the lake. “They’re a younger, kind of hip family, and we ended up hitting it off because we’re in similar places in life,” Amy says.

Point of Departure
A contemporary lakeside home offers its owners a true escape from day-to-day life
When the owners of this Hot Springs home found an empty lot on the shores of Lake Hamilton, they jumped at the chance to create a vacation home they could enjoy with their two children as well as friends and family. With two directives in mind—a modern structure and four bedroom suites—they reached out to Chris Milligan, residential designer and owner of design-build firm Dwellings, and interior designer Heather Fuller of Fuller Design Co., who worked hand-in-hand on the new build. “Chris came up with the vision for the house and the design evolved from there,” Heather says, noting he has the mind of a designer and the capability of a contractor.
“The whole thought was they live in a traditional home in Little Rock, so let’s make this feel like a true vacation getaway,” Chris says. To accomplish this, they opted for a style that was a direct departure from the primary residence. Heather, who had worked on that home and been friends with the couple for years, knew the feel should still be warm and inviting even though the bend was modern. “She is very practical, and it is so easy to work with her,” Heather says of the homeowner. “I have really come to know what she likes, and that makes the process easy.”

Building on a Legacy
A young couple honors their family’s heritage with a studio home that celebrates craftsmanship as well as the structure’s setting
As high school sweethearts, Emily Parks and her now-husband, Devon, wouldn’t have guessed the house where they posed for prom pictures would strongly influence their own abode years later. After marrying in 2013, the pair left their native Van Buren for Los Angeles to work in the film industry. While they returned home to see loved ones as often as they could, a project with an extended stay arose in 2019, evolving into an opportunity where they were working in Arkansas almost as much as they were in California. “We kind of just fell in love with home all over again. You really come to appreciate the area you are from when you move away,” Emily says. They felt the time was right to reestablish their roots in western Arkansas by making it their home base.
