Bathroom Design in Brookhaven

A primary bathroom with a double vanity, a freestanding tub, and a glass-enclosed shower, all featuring marble-patterned tiles.

Our Bath Design service creates detailed plans for new or renovated bathrooms. We design the layout, select all materials, and document the construction details for your contractor.

What we do

Our process begins with a design consultation to understand your goals for the space. We then present your design, including floor plans and elevations. Construction documents detail the plumbing locations and electrical needs. Material selections cover everything from tile and fixtures to lighting and paint colors. We conduct jobsite inspections to ensure the design is built as intended, and we assist with finishing touches like accessories.

Who it suits

This service is for homeowners in Chicago, Southwest Michigan, and Atlanta. It suits renovations of existing bathrooms in historic homes or new construction primary bathrooms, guest bathrooms, and powder rooms.

Homes in Brookhaven

Brookhaven homeowners often live in 1950s ranch homes in areas like Ashford Park, where original kitchens are typically small and separated from living areas. Many 1970s and 1980s traditional two-story homes in communities such as Brittany have primary bathrooms with outdated layouts or finishes. We provide Kitchen Design to reconfigure these older spaces for modern living, and our Bathroom Design service updates these private areas. Newer construction, including 2000s and 2010s homes in Brookhaven Fields, may benefit from Furnishing & Styling to personalize larger open-concept spaces.

What homeowners in Brookhaven ask for

Homeowners in Brookhaven frequently engage us for Kitchen Design in their 1950s and 1960s ranch homes, often seeking to open up these spaces to adjacent living rooms. Many 1970s and 1980s homes in Brookhaven also prompt requests for Bathroom Design, addressing primary baths with small, separated wet areas. Full-Home Design projects are common for clients wanting to update finishes and layouts throughout their traditional two-story homes.

About the studio

Two sisters, one studio

Jennifer Peterson founded J. Peterson Design in 2008 and leads our work in Chicago and Southwest Michigan. Her sister, Jill Kearns, leads the Atlanta studio. Together, we design homes that feel considered and beautiful, but also comfortable, functional, and personal to the people who live in them.

Although we work in different cities, we operate as one studio. We talk through plans, share ideas, question each other, and bring another experienced set of eyes to the decisions that matter. Being sisters makes that collaboration especially natural — there is a shorthand, an honesty, and a shared standard that has been there long before the studio.
