Full-Home Design in Atlanta
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.
In Atlanta
Homes in Atlanta
Atlanta's housing stock includes many 1920s and 1930s brick bungalows in neighborhoods like Virginia-Highland, often featuring small, enclosed kitchens that we reconfigure for Kitchen Design. In areas like Brookhaven, 1980s and 1990s two-story colonials frequently have primary bathrooms split into two small rooms, which we address with Bath Design. Many homes in Midtown also feature unpainted 1980s oak cabinetry that we update through Furnishing & Styling. We also work with 1950s ranch homes in Decatur, where low basement ceilings often require creative solutions for Full-Home Design.
What homeowners in Atlanta ask for
Homeowners in Atlanta frequently seek Kitchen Design for their 1920s bungalows, aiming to open up galley kitchens. Many also request Bath Design for their 1980s and 1990s colonials to combine small, separated primary bath spaces. Full-Home Design projects often involve updating 1950s ranch homes, addressing issues like low basement ceilings. We also assist with Furnishing & Styling to update interiors with unpainted 1980s oak.
Full-Home Design work from the studio
Led by Jill Kearns
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.
