Elenberg Fraser

Elenberg Fraser is an Australian architecture firm, based in Melbourne, Brisbane and the Gold Coast. It was established in 1998 by Zahava Elenberg and Callum Fraser, both RMIT University graduates. Notable projects include the interior design of restaurants such as Vue de Monde (2005) and Gingerboy (2006) and apartment buildings such as Liberty Tower (2002), Watergate Place (2005), A'Beckett Tower (2010), Eq. Tower (2017), Light House Melbourne (2017), Aurora Melbourne Central (2019), Swanston Central (2019) and Premier Tower (2021), all in Melbourne. Their design for the alpine hotels Huski (2005) and St Falls (2009) both at Falls Creek, Victoria, received awards for their highly sculptural qualities.^[1] In 2009 Elenberg Fraser also completed the adaptive reuse of No 2 Goods Shed in Docklands, a heritage-listed building transformed into office and hospitality space.^[1]
