I began this company as a regular builder with entrepreneurial dreams. But 90% of building companies fail in the first 5 years because there's just no clear path for builders. When we started winning awards in 2012, it was great from the outside but really, the company was nearly underwater. That's when I said, that's it.
There must be a better way to live life and run a business than following the norms and struggling. So, I hired a coach and explored my personal ambitions and eventually where I wanted to steer the business in the future. I soon discovered that our living spaces contribute to at least a third of our wellbeing and that I could make a real difference.

We will visit your site many times over to ensure your design responds to the ever-changing environment. Ultimately we aim to balance your lifestyle with the character of your site. A renovation that included a new under-house garage, all new foundation and 3 level building where the only original thing left was a brick chimney.
A steep rugged bush block awaits. The slender spur presents the only relief from the steep slope in all other directions. This is where the journey will begin. The prominent blackwood trees at once provide a sense of place and ultimately guide the design from beginning to end. A slight twist against the contour provides a perfect northerly aspect and encapsulate the ever changing outlook of the valley close and the distant ocean.
Tasmania continues to deliver and we were provided what can only be described as the perfect site to build on. An elevated paddock with a northerly aspect overlooking the ebb and flow of the Tamar river below. When we were first engaged by our clients for this design and construct opportunity, there was already a very strong design narrative that had been formulating over many years.
Nestled at the foothills of the Dial Ranges on the North-West Coast, three acres of secluded bush is now home to this warm and inviting retreat. Our clients expressed a desire for this home to sit in its surroundings as though it had always been there; a simple yet timeless barn.
Clever design kept this home compact and narrow allowing it to rest effortlessly in the natural lay of the land and an earthy material palette ties the build seamlessly with the surrounding native bush landscape.Practical, yet thoughtful window design reflects the surrounding bushland, amplifying a sense of seclusion and connection with nature.

With a view of the sea and sun all day, Wave House is an open, healthy living space that inspires and energises every person that visits it. The home has so many stand out features that make it a one of a kind. From the external elevation you have the magnificent curved roof rolling from 2 stories high, down to being able to touch it from the ground.

From the design, to the construction we have been more than thrilled with the result. They collaborate, listen and come up with ideas. They have a team of people who go above and beyond and really care at every stage.
They created a home for us that is truly unique and it is a wonderful space to live in - we couldn't be happier.
