**Jon Alastair Craig** (1941 or 1942 – 16 August 2015) was a New Zealand [architect](/source/Architect).

Born in about 1942, Craig was the son of Rawinia Zena (née Wortley) and [James Thomas Craig](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=James_Craig_(New_Zealand_architect)&action=edit&redlink=1), an architect. In 1969 Craig entered into partnership with his father and [Gordon Moller](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gordon_Moller&action=edit&redlink=1), to form the firm Craig Craig Moller.[2] It became one of New Zealand's leading architectural practices, establishing its reputation initially with residential houses, and later designing larger-scale commercial and public buildings.[2] Craig's own home, which he built in [Pinehaven](/source/Pinehaven) in 1967 and gradually expanded and renovated over many years, was dubbed the "house in the trees" and won an [NZIA](/source/New_Zealand_Institute_of_Architects) national award in 1990.[1][3]

Wellington airport main terminal

Between 1994 and 1999, Craig was the lead architect for the new terminal development at [Wellington International Airport](/source/Wellington_International_Airport).[4]

Craig retired from architectural practice in 2008,[1] but continued his interest in the built environment as a trustee of the Wellington Sculpture Trust.[5]

Craig died in [Lower Hutt](/source/Lower_Hutt) on 16 August 2015 at the age of 73.[6]
