Kitchen Design in Inverness

Our Kitchen Design service provides comprehensive plans for new kitchens and kitchen renovations. We design the layout, select materials, and document the details for your contractor to build.

What we do

We begin with a Design consultation to understand your project. We then present your design, including floor plans and elevations. Our Construction documents provide detailed drawings, and we guide Material selections for cabinetry, countertops, and fixtures. During Jobsite inspections, we visit the site to review progress. We conclude with Finishing touches, ensuring all design elements are in place.

Who it suits

This service is for homes in Chicago, Southwest Michigan, and Atlanta needing a new kitchen or a full kitchen renovation. It suits older homes in areas like Buckhead or Lake Forest, or new construction in Saugatuck.

Homes in Inverness

Inverness features many 1970s and 1980s custom homes in subdivisions like Inverness on the Ponds and The Woods of Inverness. These homes often present opportunities to update original primary bathrooms, which might be split into two small rooms or feature outdated finishes. We provide Bathroom Design services to address these layouts. Newer construction, such as the 2000s and 2010s homes in Inverness Point and Plum Grove Woodlands, often have open-concept living spaces, but homeowners might seek Color Consultation to refresh wall colors or Furnishing & Styling to personalize large rooms. Many 1990s two-story colonials in areas like Muirfield Village have kitchens that can benefit from a Kitchen Design update, perhaps to improve flow or incorporate modern appliances.

What homeowners in Inverness ask for

Homeowners in Inverness frequently seek Kitchen Design for their 1980s and 1990s homes, often to modernize layouts that feel closed off from living areas. Bathroom Design is also popular, especially for primary bathrooms in 1970s and 1980s custom homes that may have original finishes or inefficient layouts. Full-Home Design projects are common for residents looking to update multiple spaces in their 2000s homes, bringing a cohesive aesthetic throughout. Furnishing & Styling helps homeowners in newer subdivisions personalize their open-concept spaces.

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.
