Meet our host Luke Van Dyck

Meet our host Luke Van Dyck

Third-generation builder and respected professional, Luke's combined mix of easy-going personality and expertise in building, have led to television, print and media opportunities.

More importantly, Luke is on the tools, onsite, running a successful building business day in and day out. He has three young children with his wife, Aime, from AV Design House, and together they renovate and design homes. The majority of their work is custom-designed GreenSmart, sustainable, architectural homes, new builds and major renovations. Luke is passionate about education in the residential building sector and keeping the real experiences of builders front of mind.

If you were to ask Luke, 'what do you love about bringing our podcast conversations to life?' He would say, 'I'm serious about delivering the real conversations, about residential builders experience every day because we are living it and loving it, despite challenging days and the hard graft. I love that both myself and our guests get the chance to be authentic, talk passionately and honestly, and our listeners feel educated and inspired.'

When off the tools, Luke is an accomplished sportsman. In the rare moments that Luke finds time to wind down, you will find him somewhere outdoors indulging in his love of fast boats, surfing, downhill mountain biking and snowboarding.

More dirt on the boots than a man in a suit, Luke provides a perfect mediator and host for HIA's Building Australia podcast.
