Chapple Architecture

Arguably the Manawatu’s best known and valued architectural firms, Chapple Architecture began its journey back in 1969, when competitors David Chapple and Jack Cantlon joined to form Cantlon & Chapple.

This local firm thrived, easing out big city operators in the area. David took over in 1983, and Susie Elms bought the business in 2006, after working with David for 20 years.

Today, Susie leads a team that believes you listen, and then create. Their work reflects their style, creativity, quality and commitment to detail.

Understanding what a client really needs is paramount and they listen to the ideas and dreams before putting pen to paper, ensuring that the finished project is what the client was looking for.

Delivering on budget and on time, the team is known for their skill and range of ability. Susie has an enviable knowledge of the construction industry and is talented in interior design and colours.
