Fraser Cameron Architects Ltd is a Taupō-based architectural practice established in 1997 by Architect Fraser Cameron ANZIA and Belinda Ellis, both graduates of the University of Auckland School of Architecture. The practice is supported by Graduate Architects Richard Claughton and Harriet Cameron, who joined Fraser and Belinda in 2020.

Our work spans throughout New Zealand, with a focus on residential projects, working across a range of budgets and scales. This includes well-considered, compact homes and smaller renovations, to more expansive projects.  Each project is designed as an enduring piece of architecture, intended to be enjoyed over generations.

Operating as a small, engaged studio, we work collaboratively across all stages of a project, offering a full range of architectural services. 

We also offer interior architecture services that are tailored to each client and thoughtfully aligned with the overall design of the home.
