Full-Home Design in Lake Michigan Beach
Full-Home Design provides comprehensive interior design for your entire residence. We design all interior spaces, from initial concept through finishing touches, creating a cohesive home.
What we do
Our process begins with a Design consultation to understand your home's scope. We then present your design, including drawings and material concepts. Construction documents detail the design for your contractor, and Material selections specify all finishes and fixtures. We conduct Jobsite inspections as construction progresses, and add Finishing touches to complete your home.
Who it suits
This service suits newly built homes in Chicago, Southwest Michigan, or Atlanta. It is also for homeowners undertaking major renovations of existing houses, such as a historic bungalow in Atlanta or a lake house in Southwest Michigan.
Questions
What is included in Full-Home Design?
Full-Home Design includes a Design consultation, Presentation of your design, Construction documents, Material selections, Jobsite inspections, and Finishing touches for your entire home.
How does Full-Home Design differ from your other services?
Full-Home Design covers all interior spaces of your home, unlike Kitchen Design, Bath Design, or Living Space, which focus on individual rooms. It includes documentation for construction, which Furnishing & Styling and Color Consultation do not.
What do I receive at the end of the design process?
You receive a complete set of Construction documents, including drawings and specifications, along with detailed Material selections for all finishes and fixtures in your home. We also oversee the Jobsite inspections and Finishing touches.
How long does a Full-Home Design project typically take?
The duration of a Full-Home Design project varies based on the size and complexity of your home. We will discuss a timeline during your initial Design consultation.
How do you work with my contractor for Full-Home Design?
We provide your contractor with Construction documents, which detail the design for their build. We conduct Jobsite inspections to ensure the design is implemented correctly during construction.

Homes in Lake Michigan Beach
Many homes in Lake Michigan Beach include 1970s and 1980s ranch-style houses in areas like Shorewood Hills, often presenting with closed-off kitchens that benefit from Kitchen Design. Further north, in subdivisions such as Grand Beach, you find 1990s and 2000s two-story homes, where a Basement Remodel can add significant living space. We also see 1950s and 1960s cottages near the lake, where a Bathroom Design often addresses smaller, outdated layouts. Our Color Consultation service frequently helps unify these varied architectural styles within a home.
What homeowners in Lake Michigan Beach ask for
Homeowners in Lake Michigan Beach frequently seek Kitchen Design for their 1970s and 1980s ranch homes, often to open up the main living areas. Basement Remodel projects are common in 1990s and 2000s two-story houses to create more functional spaces. We also often provide Furnishing & Styling for lakefront cottages, and Bathroom Design for older homes with smaller, original bathrooms.
Full-Home Design work from the studio
Led by Jennifer Peterson from the Southwest Michigan studio
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.
