We'll only use your details to send the guide and follow up about your project.
While it sends, four quick questions so our follow-up is useful to you.
Your guide is on its way. If you'd like to talk your site, budget or timing through, a 15-minute call is the quickest way.
Concept preview. On launch, the email and your answers go straight into the CRM with the ad that brought you here, so the follow-up is about your project, not a generic sequence.
Video placeholder. Filmed during onboarding with whoever from the team suits: Harry, Nick or Billy.
Axis Homes was founded by Harry Friend, a graduate architect and licensed builder, after years of watching projects suffer from disconnected teams and miscommunication. The guide covers the questions we talk through in first conversations, before anything is drawn.
25+ homes delivered across Southern Tasmania. Spring Beach won the 2025 HIA Tasmanian Custom Built Home up to $750,000, and the Corrugated Cabin was a National HIA GreenSmart Sustainable Home finalist.
What a standard floorplan price assumes, and the three site factors that add to it: site preparation, orientation and topography.
Why budgets blow out when the team drawing your home isn't the team quoting it, and how pricing early keeps a project viable.
Bushfire ratings, tree protections, coastal guidelines and stormwater: how Tasmanian councils shape a design.
Passive solar orientation, thermal bridging, airtightness and the materials that last in Tasmanian UV and salt air.
Typical budgets, what each stage costs, how long approvals and construction take, plus a checklist to see if your project's ready.
