Meridith Ranouil, CKBD, Allied ASID, MLH Designs Sims Residence, North Little Rock GOAL These clients hired MLH Designs to
incorporate their loves of nature and travel into a new build on the Arkansas River. Among their priorities were open-concept living spaces, a modern and minimal aesthetic, abundant storage, and a primary bathroom that would call to mind the zen-like spas at one of their favorite destinations abroad. RESULT Designer Meridith Ranouil employed a combination of finishes to bring warmth and down-to-earth style to this contemporary family home. Downstairs, a mix of matte black and walnut cabinetry in the kitchen elevates the concrete flooring, while touch-latch and channeled hardware help retain a sleek look. In the primary bath upstairs, Meridith used a custom application of wood tile to create an art-installation effect in a niche over the tub. Numerous windows let the outside in, allowing the natural beauty of the environment to act as art throughout the home. 42 At Home in Arkansas | January/February 2022
