Full-Home Design in Tucker

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 Tucker

Many homes in Tucker include 1960s and 1970s ranch-style houses in neighborhoods like Smoke Rise, often featuring closed-off galley kitchens that we frequently open up as part of our Kitchen Design service. Subdivisions such as Coopers Lake and Idlewood feature 1980s and 1990s two-story traditional homes, where we often address primary bathrooms with outdated finishes or inefficient layouts through our Bathroom Design service. We also work with homeowners in older areas near Main Street, where 1950s brick ranches may have smaller living spaces that benefit from our Furnishing & Styling expertise.

What homeowners in Tucker ask for

Homeowners in Tucker often seek our Full-Home Design service for 1970s and 1980s homes, aiming to update entire floor plans and finishes. We frequently redesign kitchens in 1960s ranches, addressing the common issue of a separate, small kitchen space. Many projects also involve updating primary bathrooms in 1990s two-story homes, where finishes like unpainted oak cabinetry and builder-grade fixtures are common.

Full-Home Design work from the 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.
