Clark Street Residence
Community: Mount Sequoyah
City / State: Fayetteville, AR
This 1956 Fayetteville home was designed by Fay Jones to sit quietly within its wooded lot, long and low, with materials that read as extensions of the hillside. Our work here was an exercise in restraint, undertaken in close collaboration with architect David McKee, whose custom metalwork at the entry sets the tone for everything that follows. An ipe deck, native stone walls, dry-stack entry, drainage improvements, lighting, and refreshed planting, each element handled with the understanding that the home had already established the terms
Made for This Place
Every element at the entry was designed or selected in direct response to this house and this site. The metalwork, the stone, and the wood share a vocabulary that feels less assembled than grown.
Extending the Idea
Where a narrow concrete walk once led to the front door, a wide ipe deck now extends the architecture to meet the landscape, as if Jones had planned it that way from the start
In Good Company
A 1956 Fay Jones home asked for a landscape that understood its terms. Stone, wood, and custom metalwork, each chosen to belong here and nowhere else.
