We are architects, preservationists, researchers, and investigators on a mission to make buildings work for the next generation and beyond.
“The gold standard in historic preservation.” -AIA Minnesota 2011 Firm Award Jury
What We Do
MacDonald & Mack Architects has been at the forefront of the preservation movement since our founding in 1976. We’re based in Minneapolis and nationally recognized for our deep knowledge of existing buildings of all eras and our use of the latest forensic investigation methods and technology.
Who We Are
MacDonald & Mack Architects is a certified woman-owned business (WBE/DBE). We support women architects.
Architecture has historically been a male-dominated profession. Even today, women make up less than a third of working registered architects in this country.
Core Values
We provide the highest level of stewardship for both buildings and relationships. We’re always thinking about the long-term success of the structures we work on and the people we work with. We treat our employees, collaborators, and clients right, emphasizing respect, teamwork, clear communication, and a commitment to the very best end result.
