Technology has always been part of my story. I grew up in that in-between era where floppy disks lived next to drafting boards, and AOL Instant Messenger chimed in the background while my family sketched on vellum. As I got older, I realized those two worlds — the analog and the digital — were on a collision course that would reshape not only my relationship with architecture, but the entire profession.

Today, technology isn’t just a tool for us at Peacock Architects. It’s a partner in creativity. And honestly? It’s one of the reasons our workflows have evolved into something that feels a lot like art.

When Donald Trump bought Mar-a-Lago, the historic Florida mansion had suffered decades of neglect. The new proprietor was particularly concerned about the state of the lavatories. Gentlemen had to use a urinal trough, and the cubicles were fitted with plastic sliding doors.

Trump had a vision, however. He wanted to create sumptuous facilities with golden taps, marble floors and glittering chandeliers.

Peacock Architects is proud to celebrate three of our talented designers — Cristin, Kate, and Fio — for being recognized among Interior Design Magazine’s 30/30 Designers, honoring the top 30 designers under 30 years old across the country. Each of these rising talents was nominated by Tamara Peacock, President of Peacock Architects, for their creativity, leadership, and passion for shaping meaningful spaces.

South Florida Business Journal’s 2025 Structure Award Finalist for Community Impact: Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, Kenneth C. Griffin Surgical Tower by Perkins & Will, Delray Full Service Center by Peacock Architects, and Point Blank Enterprises at Prologis Atlantic Business Center by JLL  

We are honored to be named a finalist in the 2025 South Florida Business Journal Structure Awards in the Community Impact category — a recognition that aligns deeply with what we believe good architecture should do: serve people, uplift communities, and connect past to future.

The Delray Full Service Adult Education Center is more than a building. It’s a physical embodiment of that philosophy — a project where honoring history and designing for new opportunities go hand in hand.

One of the largest oceanfront lots in Miami is being reimagined—and Peacock Architects is proud to be leading the redesign. This Golden Beach megamansion, set on 1.5 acres with 250 feet of ocean frontage, is undergoing a transformation to meet the expectations of today’s luxury buyers. Our vision introduces expansive glass walls, multigenerational living spaces, and flood-resilient design—blending modern elegance with the property’s unique history.

At Peacock Architects, we believe that internships are more than just a stepping stone—they’re an immersive experience that shapes the architects of tomorrow. This National Intern Day, we’re excited to share reflections from three of our summer interns who have been growing, learning, and contributing to meaningful projects at our Fort Lauderdale office.

For over eight years, we’ve worked hand in hand with Danto Builders on design-build projects across South Florida, delivering spaces that work as beautifully as they look. From South Dade Industrial to Fat Tuesdays, from the Museum of Science and Discovery’s new Holo Theater to the first Amphibious Assault Memorial Monument, each project has benefitted from the seamless collaboration between our teams.

In architecture, some projects move forward seamlessly — and others require a little more finesse. When a development proposal is perceived as controversial, whether due to its location, purpose, or potential impact, success depends on more than great design. It requires thoughtful strategy, clear communication, and a willingness to listen.

After decades behind a mid-century metal facade, the historic character of 344 N. Main Street is finally seeing daylight again. As contractors removed the old “cheese grater” cladding, they revealed the building’s original brickwork—and with it, the engraved “1917 Gudger Building” inscription that speaks to its storied past. Now, as the building prepares for a thoughtful transformation, Peacock Architects shares insight into what’s next and what’s possible for this Main Street landmark.
