A Little Rock family pushes the boundaries of their home—literally—with a wider kitchen and spa-like bath

Jill White had been working with this family of five for a few years when they decided to make a drastic change. “The house pretty much ended where the pendant lights are over the island,” the designer says. “That whole back wall basically came off of the house, and we expanded it about eight feet to open up the space.” In doing so, they created a generous primary bathroom and covetable cookspace.

Neutral style and peak functionality are a winning combination in this Northwest Arkansas renovation

For a family of football fans, this Fayetteville vacation home had a lot going for it—including prime placement near Razorback Stadium. But if it wasn’t game day, there was a lot to be desired. “It was a 1952 home, and the kitchen was from the ‘80s,” says Heidi Burks of K + H Collaborative, whom the family enlisted to revamp the home. “They had a green floor in the kitchen, and the bathroom was connected to a cedar closet that almost felt like it was larger than the bathroom itself,” the design firm’s co-founder Krista

When Abby Kuykendall began construction on her new home in Bentonville, the then-single entrepreneur knew she wanted to design the space around entertaining her extended family and friends.

Living Beauty

A Little Rock family home embraces antiques, heirlooms, and chic fabrics—deeming nothing too precious for use

Fate seems to have played a role in this young family’s central Arkansas house hunt. Having met while living and working in New York City, marrying, and then moving to Dallas, the couple welcomed the possibility of being closer to family—with his in Little Rock and hers in Memphis—and were able to do so at the start of the pandemic. After settling into a rental house in the capital city, they began searching for a place where they could raise their son and daughter and make lasting memories. “We were driving around with sleeping kids in the car when my husband remembered he had a friend who grew up in this neighborhood,” the owner recalls. They decided to check it out, and immediately fell for a red brick Colonial home with charming curb appeal. After writing a letter to the then-owners, the process for it to become theirs began to unfold.

Classic Meets Calm

Katie Rees works with a Little Rock couple to create a thoughtful and timeless family home

When building their new home, the overarching goal for Katie Rees and her clients was a certain levity that can feel especially serene in a family home. To accomplish this, Katie, along with architect Chad Young and builder Bill Parkinson, approached the plan thoughtfully while also keeping efficiency in mind. “I love their house because it’s really not overly massive,” Katie says. “They didn’t want this gigantic mansion, and they wanted it to still feel homey. Every space has a function,” the designer adds.

Serene, neutral interiors and stunning lake views inspire rest, relaxation, and fun at this family getaway


When this Little Rock couple contacted designer Jeremy Carter from a runway, they were looking to create a dream vacation destination close to home. Having seen his work and heard praise from their extended family, they were wheels up on hiring him to help make their Hot Springs lake house functional and inviting. “They had purchased a home on Lake Hamilton and gutted it, but it wasn’t going back together the way they envisioned,” Jeremy explains. “They wanted to meet as soon as they returned from their trip to see if I could help.”

Lake Living

Marianna O’Dea helps a young family turn a weekend retreat into a practical and playful full-time residence

“An epic five-month summer.” That’s how one of the owners of this Hot Springs home describes the initial months of the pandemic, which they spent away from their Little Rock residence and at the lake instead. “We felt a little guilty when we looked around, but we had been living our best life,” the homeowner says. For the young family of four, days spent wakesurfing and nights looking out at the water were a dream. Not wanting to lose sight of the togetherness and fun they shared during that season, they made the decision to move to their Lake Hamilton vacation home permanently.
