Post & Beam - Custom Mud Brick Homes

Welcome to Post & Beam custom mud brick homes. Our mission is to help you design and build your dream home, a home you will be proud of, something that makes a strong statement about you and your values, a home as unique and individual as you.

We design and build 6 star+ energy smart post and beam homes, utilising the best available passive solar design and your choice of building materials.

The most common materials we use for building are mud brick, Timbercrete, Colorbond® and timber cladding, but we can use any material including straw bale, local stones, blue stone, brick veneer or anything else.

We can also help you save 30% and upwards on your building costs by supplying you with a custom built kit home that you assemble for yourself, or we can recommend a list of reputable builders who will assemble the home we design for you.

We deliver Australia wide, so no matter where you live, if you want a quality crafted Post & Beam home, you're in the right place.

Energy Efficient Custom Built Mud Brick Homes

We can help you build a very ‘green home’ using energy efficient passive solar design and low embodied energy materials. We can also help you plan for any interior, from earthy and natural right through to modern and stylish, it's completely up to your needs and tastes.

No rain forest timbers are used (we use renewable plantation timbers) and in keeping with our building philosophy, we use toxin free building materials. For instance we don’t use glues or any materials that cause ‘off gassing’. The result is a home that has a better relationship to nature and a more natural and comfortable feel. You also have the option of building it yourself, or having a builder build it for you.

The majority of our clients choose exteriors that create a down to earth feel in their home, for example mud brick, timbercrete or timber cladding, but we can and have used a wide variety of exterior building materials.
