Built on Detail. Driven by Delivery.

From luxury homes to commercial spaces and event structures, Build One is the team that owns the detail, the timeline and the outcome so your project lands exactly where it should.

Story of the Business & Founders

Robbie and Chris Wynne started where it matters most on the tools. Both qualified carpenters and licensed DB-U builders, they cut their teeth with a high-end builder delivering luxury homes across Camberwell, Kew, Balwyn and Canterbury, where architectural detail and exacting finishes were non-negotiable.

From there, they stepped into site foreman roles with a respected development company, leading complex, design-driven projects and learning how to manage trades, budgets and timelines under pressure. Those years on site shaped the way they still work today: detail-obsessed, transparent, and deeply hands-on.

Build One Design & Construction was born from a simple idea to create a building company where clients, designers and trades are genuinely aligned, and where “Meticulous Detail – Seamless Execution” is more than a tagline; it’s the way every project is run, whether it’s a family home, a hospitality fit-out or a major event structure.

Expansion into Events & Commercial

Delivering major event structures and activations for iconic Australian events, and growing into premium commercial and hospitality fit-outs

Having the team on payroll, not just on call, means:

  • details aren’t negotiated on the driveway with a subcontractor they’re planned and executed within one team

  • finishes are consistent from one project to the next, across both residential and commercial builds

  • sequencing, tolerances and on-site problem solving are handled by people who know the job, the drawings and the expectations inside out.

For clients and designers, that translates to cleaner lines, fewer surprises, and a build that actually reflects the intent of the design.

In-House Carpentry:

Build One’s backbone is its in-house carpentry team a crew of skilled carpenters who share the same mindset as Robbie and Chris.

  • Craftsmanship

    Every project home, venue or pavilion is treated as a one-off. Materials, junctions and detailing are considered, not just installed.

  • Clarity

    Straight, honest communication. Clear scopes, realistic expectations and regular updates so no one is guessing where things are at.

  • Systems

    Refined processes, structured project management and better use of technology to keep programs, budgets and decisions on track.

  • Innovation

    Openness to new building technologies, methods and materials that improve performance, sustainability and efficiency without compromising quality.

  • Collaboration

    Collaboration

    Architects, designers, suppliers and trades are treated as partners. The goal is simple: align everyone around delivering the best possible outcome.

Build One’s craftsmanship and leadership have been recognised well beyond the site fence. Robbie and Chris were builders on The Block 2023 (Channel 9) for sisters Eliza & Liberty, winning two awards for quality and workmanship. They’ve also featured as builders on Dream Home (Channel 7), showcasing their expertise on a national stage.

Off-screen, they are proud Emerald Mitre 10 Store Ambassadors, reflecting strong industry relationships, trust from major suppliers, and a reputation built on integrity as much as on finished work.
