A SHORT INTRODUCTION
honahlee was founded with a bold mission: improve global wellbeing through cannabis education and access. When they came to Antimony in 2019, the platform didn't exist yet. Just a vision, a brief, and the conviction to build something the Australian public had never seen. Antimony designed and built the platform from zero, creating the UX, content architecture and brand system that turned an idea into a trusted community.
Barfoot & Thompson is New Zealand's largest privately owned agency, family-run for a hundred years. They brought us in to sell their most remote, premium coastal listings the way the best brands sell anything: online, at scale, to exactly the right people.The job was to turn high-end video and photography into a journey that found serious buyers and warmed them up long before they stood on the land. So we built the system to do it, and built it to repeat.
THE CHALLENGE

Building trust in an industry that didn't have any

THE CONTEXT

Medicinal cannabis in Australia existed in a regulatory grey zone. Misinformation was everywhere, stigma was the default, and patients had nowhere credible to turn. honahlee needed to be the trusted source before it could be a commercial platform. Education had to lead.

THE MARKET

The Australian medicinal cannabis market was nascent but growing rapidly. Patient access schemes were expanding and public sentiment was shifting. honahlee needed a platform architecture that could scale with the regulatory landscape while holding editorial credibility.

OUR MOVE

We designed a platform for education first, commerce second. Credible content and a clear information architecture came before any commercial layer, so trust was built before anything was sold.

WORDS FROM ANTIMONY
honahlee proved that the most powerful brands don't start by selling. They start by earning trust. We built a platform that educated first and converted second. The community that formed around it became the product's greatest asset.

PLATFORM GROWTH

It expanded to launch Catalyst, an alternative medicines and script database, driving 200% revenue growth and proving the model could scale into adjacent health verticals.

WORDS FROM HONAHLEE
"It's unfortunate but true that I've had more negative agency experiences than positive ones over the last decade in marketing, so it's refreshing to work with Antimony. Their process is truly collaborative. Instead of feeling like a client being managed by an agency, you have a real extension of your team working with Antimony."
