Rebuilding the Industry: Todd Paris on Passion, Purpose & Changing the Construction Game

Todd is the Director of Haiku Building, a builder with over 15 years of experience and a passion for creating homes that are comfortable, energy-efficient, and built to last. He’s a certified Passive House specialist, and has completed Zara D’Cotta’s healthy home mastermind. He believes great homes should not only look good, but improve the health of his clients and their families, whilst minimising the impact on the environment. He has a passion for providing new life to old building materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. With a mix of hands-on experience and forward-thinking design, Todd brings a calm, honest, and collaborative approach to every project. He works closely with clients, architects, and trades to make the building process clear, supportive, and enjoyable.At the centre of his work is the PAC Process—Paid as Consultant—a smart, upfront way to plan and guide projects before building begins. It helps clients feel confident from day one, making decisions easier and the journey to their dream home smoother.Todd believes building a home shouldn’t be overwhelming. It should be a well-organised, positive experience—with strong relationships, good communication, and a shared focus on quality.When he’s not on site or working with clients, Todd’s spending time with his wife and three kids—usually outdoors, recharging and enjoying the simple things.
