Asha Mevlana
Who lives there: Asha Mevlana and her Havanese dog named Bali
Location: Fayetteville, Arkansas
Size: Main house (400 sq ft), Trailer (160 sq ft.), 1 loft bedroom, 1 bath
What sets your home apart: The home was designed specifically for my lifestyle.
My inspiration: After reading the book, "The Life Changing Magic of Tidying," I got inspired to just live with things that bring me joy which meant scaling down on everything and getting rid of most of my possessions and all of the things that I had accumulated over the years. I also travel quite a bit and wanted to live with just what I needed.
About the house: The L-shaped house consists of two separate structures joined by a deck. The main house (400 sq ft), which rests on a solid foundation, features the kitchen, living room, bathroom and loft bedroom. To make the small area feel more spacious, it was designed with high ceilings, windows and two custom garage doors to let in more light. The L-shape of the deck mirrors the house and allows for the two separate structures to blend seamlessly together. The smaller "amplified" structure (160 sq ft) is built on wheels to allow for touring and transportation. This studio is soundproof using recycled denim, and acts as a recording studio/guest bedroom/practice area. But it doesn't just look like an amp, it actually is one -- just plug in your instrument and sound comes through the front marine speakers onto the expansive deck designed for concerts.
My favorite part of the home is the large kitchen and the expansive deck that makes the home feel even bigger. The deck also acts as a way to bring the community together where local musicians perform. I love having a the amp trailer as a separate space to practice music. But I especially love all the light with windows and garage doors throughout.

Design dilemmas: Because the city wasn’t used to having tiny houses there were certain rules that didn’t quite make sense for a tiny house. I wasn’t allowed to have stairs leading up to the loft, only ladders were allowed. Since it was built, the city is beginning to revisit some of the old rules and hopefully things will be changing.

The exterior of the home had multiple repairs undertaken to ensure its longevity and new landscaping was installed to bring the house to an easier maintenance level for the homeowner. Custom features like the mailbox and the railings along the front deck were designed to enhance the Asian flair of this bungalow. Rocks and water features were added throughout the landscaping to bring additional Asian influences to the home.
Good Charlotte Cedar
Detail shot: Client was going for a rustic/medeival look, which we achieved by lightly sanding the rough-sawn texture, torching knots/imprefections to highlight and contrast, and applying two coats of stain/sealer. Client opted for exterior mount (non-operable) shutters, which are secured to the brick with masonry fasteners at the corners, and countersunk below the face of the shutter. Cedar plugs (visible in upper right corner) are then glued in place over the fastener head, and chiseled/sanded smooth before touch-up stain is applied.
