Homes in Mableton
Mableton features many 1960s and 1970s ranch homes in neighborhoods like Oakdale and Providence, often with galley kitchens closed off from living spaces. Homeowners frequently seek Kitchen Design to open these areas and update finishes. Newer construction, such as 1990s two-story homes in subdivisions near Veterans Memorial Highway, often have primary bathrooms with separate, small shower and toilet rooms, prompting Bathroom Design projects. Many homes from the 1980s and 1990s in areas like Heritage Oaks have unpainted oak cabinetry and trim that clients want to update through Furnishing & Styling or Color Consultation.
What homeowners in Mableton ask for
Homeowners in Mableton often ask for Kitchen Design to update 1960s and 1970s galley kitchens, opening them to adjacent living areas. Bathroom Design projects are common for 1990s primary bathrooms that feature outdated layouts or finishes. Many clients also seek Full-Home Design to refresh entire 1980s and 1990s homes, addressing unpainted oak trim and dated color palettes. Basement Remodel projects are also popular to make the most of lower levels.
Living Space work from the studio
Led by Jill Kearns from the Atlanta 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.
