Madeleine Village
The aim of the project was to restore historic aspects of the building exterior to encapsulate the 1950s architectural style. This consisted of the complete repair of the stucco and stucco-brick façade to its original appearance, the addition of entry door awning coverings, and the installation of new entry doors from the mid-century era. Additionally, with some of the structural repairs done to the building, we had to design an intricate metal piece that resembled the patterns used throughout mid-century modern design in order to preserve a portion of the wall.

Great Southern Hotel
Beginning this project in 1999, Peacock Architects were hired as the historic architects on the historic restoration of the iconic Great Southern Hotel. Initially hired to restore three of the main facades- north, east, and west that were originally constructed in 1920, Peacock planned to reconstruct the ground floor large arched windows and entrances, replicate the windows, install the striped awnings over all the windows, recreate the large metal canopy with glass bulbs at the main entrances, and restore the cast moldings along the facades. Today the building stands proudly on the corner of Young Circle and Hollywood Boulevard. Three stories tall with its mansard roof, arched windows, and medallion cast moldings.
