The back wall, covered in a textured, rock-like, shimmery wallpaper, reminded Hurd of "The Starry Night" painting by van Gogh.
A striking marble slab wows in the primary bathroom.

The Hendersons’ resort vision continues outside with plenty of deck space for lounging around the pool. Edmond Deck and Patio did most of the work on the patio and deck, Studio Simmons designed the pool and Pleasant Pools installed it. Another fun part for Hurd in designing the home was working with the two powder bathrooms, which she referred to as light and dark. The light powder bath includes battery-powered custom roman shades, marble floors in a triangle pattern and marbled wallpaper from Kasa Wallpaper in Oklahoma City. For the dark one, she went with a moody and angular look that included geometric wallpaper. “Every angle in the bathroom I wanted to be interesting,” Hurd said. In fact, interesting features grab attention throughout the whole house. “There’s so much to this house. It’s so unbelievable that they had the vision of what this house could be,” Hurd said of the Hendersons. “This is an unbelievable transformation.” The Hendersons are “a testament to trusting the process, trusting the team that you have,” Acklin said. “So much of what you're looking at is on-the-fly decisions and harebrained ideas on site together … We were a team.” Carey Henderson said she and her husband had fun with the project and working with Hurd and Acklin. “They were great at implementing our vision and taking it full circle,” she said.
