Mudroom in Smyrna
We design mudrooms for homes in Chicago, Southwest Michigan, and Atlanta. This service focuses on creating a dedicated, organized entry space for daily living. We plan the layout and select all materials for your mudroom.
What we do
Our process begins with a Design consultation to understand your home and how you use your entry space. We then present your design, including initial layouts and material concepts. Construction documents follow, providing detailed drawings for your contractor. Material selections cover all finishes, fixtures, and built-ins. We conduct Jobsite inspections to ensure the design is executed as planned, and we guide you through the Finishing touches.
Who it suits
This service is for homes in Chicago, Southwest Michigan, and Atlanta that need a dedicated entry and storage area. It suits older bungalows, new construction, and homes where an existing space can be reconfigured. We design mudrooms for families and individuals who need a highly organized entry.

In Smyrna
Homes in Smyrna
In Smyrna, we often design for 1960s brick ranches in neighborhoods like Williams Park, where we update closed-off kitchens with new space planning. We also work with 1980s two-story homes in subdivisions such as Laurel Springs, where we address primary bathrooms with split layouts. Many homes built in the 1990s around Cooper Lake Road feature unpainted oak trim and cabinetry, which we update through color consultation and full-home design. We also encounter 2000s traditional homes in areas like Vinings Estates, where we reimagine living spaces for modern family life.
What homeowners in Smyrna ask for
Smyrna homeowners frequently engage us for kitchen design in their 1960s and 1970s ranches to open up floor plans. Bathroom design is often requested for 1980s and 1990s homes to combine smaller, separated spaces into one cohesive primary bath. We also provide full-home design for 2000s traditional homes, updating finishes and improving flow. Furnishing and styling services are popular for living spaces across various eras in Smyrna.
Mudroom 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.
