Our experience with Longhorn has been nothing short of exceptional! From our first contact where we spoke about our vision for a true American style 'Mountain Home' with an Aussie twist, right through to tender and selections, Luke, Keith, Renee and Taylor have been amazing - working with us to get the design right by listening to our wishes, challenging us (where needed) and guiding us to get to this point. We are really excited to bring our dream to life and are so happy that we've made the decision to partner with Longhorn!

We would like to thank Luke and his team at Longhorn for turning our somewhat challenging brief for a multi-generational home into a great design which is both practical and exciting. We are very happy with the one of a kind design outcome. The team have been very helpful, practical and patient. We now look forward to the construction commencing. Jack Kraan

Luke and his team at the Longhorn Group have been an absolute pleasure to deal with right from the very start. They have been responsive, professional, patient and understanding throughout the whole design phase. We are now very much looking forward to the construction stage of our very own Barndominium beginning next month.

Director

Luke Fryer is the Founder and Director of Longhorn Barndominiums, bringing more than 20 years of experience across residential construction, project delivery and design-led development.

Driven by a passion for architecture and innovation, Luke spent extensive time in the United States, including Texas, immersing himself in the heritage and craftsmanship of barndominium design and construction. This research became the foundation for Longhorn’s authentic approach to barn-inspired homes in Australia.

Before founding Longhorn, Luke spent 15 years with Metricon Homes, Australia’s largest home builder, where he held senior leadership roles across New South Wales and Queensland. His time with Metricon gave him a deep understanding of what Australians value in a home, as well as the systems required to deliver a professional, high-quality building experience.

Luke also brings experience in cost planning, project feasibility and premium commercial delivery, having worked as Estimating Manager with Australian Developments and later as CEO of Australasian Retail Projects.

Today, Luke leads Longhorn with a vision: to introduce a distinctive new style of home to Australia, combining barn-inspired architecture, refined design and the freedom of acreage living.
