Hello my name is Joshua MacDonald and I am a recent graduate of McGill University (March ’21) and the University of Waterloo (BAS ’19). I am the proud recipient of the Alpha Rho Chi Bronze Medal (McGill) and the Smale Fellowship (Waterloo), both in recognition of design excellence, leadership, professional merit, and the potential to play a notable role in the profession of architecture. I am a co-founder and chief operating officer at nineplusten Architectural Imagery, and founder of MacDonald Architecture + Design. I am also a parttime course and guest lecturer at various Canadian universities such as, McGill University, Concordia University, and the University of Waterloo. My passion for architecture stems from my strong desire to see how architects can create united communities. I believe architecture has the ability to address issues of social division, exclusion, and climate change.

THE COMMONSSOCIALPROJECT
The project provides a platform for citizens, city officials, and designers to discuss and co-produce possible futures for public spaces in cities. These co-produced design possibilities will be economically, environmentally, and socially sustainable. The work advocates for small scale development as an alternative to large capital projects, this initiative would allow social infrastructure to be implemented where, and when, it is needed. Finally, this project presents the notion that quality design can not only be affordable, but environmentally positive and socially impactful.
The Social Commons Project explores the uneven distribution of social infrastructure in cities, equipping the public with tools to help better understand, identify, and co-produce design solutions that address social inequalities. Commonly referred to as public spaces, social infrastructures are the physical places in which we build social networks and grow as individuals, and as communities. They play a critical, yet underappreciated role in our modern Thissocieties.body of work is a contribution to the discourses on evidencebased and human-centered design and proposes actionable opportunities for social impact. Through geo-spatial mapping in select North American cities, the correlation between social vulnerability and social infrastructure is detected, illustrating systemic inequalities, and highlighting areas for community improvement. These visualizations enforce the idea that what we build is just as important as where we build it.

The Knivsta Community Learning Campus explores the potential for programmatic deterritorialization to create an inclusive educational landscape of intergenerational, intercultural, and transdisciplinary exchange. By combining a technical high school (Tekniska Gymnasium) and a community centre, we sought to interweave new spatial relationships. New community connections could form across the unexpected pairings, juxtapositions and sharing of a radically hybrid, trans-disciplinary, mixed-use campus.
The Knivsta Community Learning Campus proposes a democratic experiment in building new collective freedoms and possibilities by interweaving a shared social and natural landscape. Programmatic deterritorialization can help foster educational experiences and pedagogies that celebrate wandering exploration and collaboration. An inclusive social infrastructure can be intimately embedded within Knivsta’s forested hills and build new connections throughout this rapidly evolving community.

Instead of isolated departments, traditional classrooms and lecturebased teaching, the Learning Campus supports new forms of educational exploration throughout a mix of interconnected spaces.
KNIVSTA LEARNINGCOMMUNITYCAMPUS
The campus strives to foster a sense of belonging where students take ownership of their education through hands-on project-focused learning and transdisciplinary collaboration. Typical departmental groupings have been redistributed into a trio of buildings, each offering a different typological experiment in circulation armatures, programmatic juxtapositions and relationships to the forested hill.

THIS IS NOT A SCHOOL
Project: Competition 2019 - African School Project Type: Secondary School Location: Benga, Malawi Duration: 3 Collaborators:weeksJonas Swienty - Honorable Mention -
The project, “This is not a school,” aims to redefine our traditional perceptions of education and re-imagine the archetype of the classroom. Education does not only transpire within the confines of four walls. The opportunity to learn exists in our everyday lives and the spaces that surround us. Our goal is to create a project that can facilitate as many unique learning opportunities and spaces as possible in order to create the best achievable educational Eachconditions.building has a unique footprint, roof structure, and color accent, giving the spaces individuality and identity within the greater school community. While we propose options for potential placements of these buildings on the site - which we believe possess the greatest collaborative synergies - the goal is to involve the community in the planning of the project. Through this collaboration, we hope to give the users a greater sense of ownership to the project in its planning phases while also providing local involvement in the construction. The given solutions in this proposal accommodates the needs of the school today while anticipating the future demands and growth of an expanding school in a sustainable way. When combined together the catalogue of unique and playful building types create a sequence of distinct but harmonious educational spaces, that can create something much greater, a community. By introducing woodlots throughout the site we hope to use the woodlots to teach students about the pressing issue of deforestation and its effect on Malawian lives. Eventually as the school grows these same trees will be used in the construction of new buildings.

The site is one of five lots in this forested landscape. The project rests on a plateau overlooking a nearby river. Careful attention was given to the sitting of the chalet in order to minimize the need for additional clearing and disturbance of surrounding vegetation. In time the chalet will blend further into the natural landscape as the natural cedar siding greys with age.
Located an hour and a half north of Montreal, Chalet SE is a two bedroom rental chalet that has the capability to host up to seven guests. The chalet provides a natural getaway for those looking to escape the busyness of city life.
The simple gable form design minimizes additional construction costs and creates ease of construction for the client who intends to self-build. The simple floor plan creates a single loaded corridor layout where the north facing wall integrates a collection of builtin storage, seating and a flexible workspace. Vista views can be experienced from the open concept living space that opens out onto a large deck space that is shared with a screened porch and wood storage.

The project is a merging of traditional timber frame and barn style with a contemporary spin. The main building uses typical stick frame construction methods but uses local Douglas Fir timber members as the support elements for both large exterior overhangs. The outpost is cladded in beautiful Japanese Cypress treated with a shou sugi ban treatment. This cladding offers an unrivaled aesthetic and the ability for the project to sit modestly on site complementing its natural surroundings.
The first component of the design is a large working garage with a double door connection into a large wood shop. The primary building entrance opens into the entertainment space, while still providing access to the adjacent wood shop. The entertainment space is a double height room that opens out towards a covered terrace - ideal for barbecues and gatherings of all sizes. The arrangement of the floor plan allows the garage and wood shop to be perpendicular to the main residence for ease of access and use. While the entertainment wing of the project angles itself so that it is perpendicular to the awe inspiring views of the Rocky Mountains.
The Sparwood outpost is located just outside of Fernie, BC. The project is situated in a clearing surrounded by tall west coast pines, walking distance from the client’s main residence. With a growing desire to experiment, create, and entertain the clients requested an outpost building that could offer them beautiful and practical spaces to enjoy year round.
