Do you have a house that you know has potential or 'good bones', but you have no idea what to do with it?

You're not alone...
was one of those houses too.

If you're bored or need inspiration, search "Paul Butterworth Architect" in YouTube to watch us transform this home on the hit show "Renovate or Rebuild" [Season 2, Eps 1 & 2].

Also...Who doesn't love a little 'before' & 'after' photo action?! 😎

Also a hit attraction at Brisbane Open House 2025 earlier this year. Go & follow for more.

Q. You're both retired, the kids have grown up & left home & it's just the two of you. How much 'house' do you really need? πŸ€”

A. The Honeyworks House was built all on one level of robust, low maintenance materials & allows its owners to be climatically comfortable, have the family stay over & still have enough space to entertain & enjoy retirement. 😎

FYI, the name "Honeyworks" came from the owner's home-based beekeeping honey business. 🐝

Q. What if you have a character Queenslander in Clayfield, a limited budget & need outdoor entertaining space... but there's a 6.5m high barrier to the busiest train line in Brisbane in your backyard?! πŸ˜±πŸ€”

A. We create a veiled sanctuary, filled with natural light & subtropical plants, as a new 'front door' for the owners to decompress from a hectic workday, enjoyed from the kitchen, dining & living spaces upstairs. 🌿
