Flockhill Villas

Flockhill Villas offer luxury, privacy, and flexibility, immersing guests in the alpine environment. Designed as a cluster of seven gable-roofed villas, the layout mirrors the Southern Alps' layered peaks, maximising privacy and views. Each villa consists of three main volumes - a bedroom wing either side of a central living and entertainment space, with guests able to choose whether to include the living space in their booking. The neutral materials palette of the villas is influenced by the surrounding landscape – the greys of alluvial fields, gravel scars and braided rivers are paired with dark timber and warmer tones representative of nearby forestry. This understated palette fosters a sense of belonging, while deliberately setting itself apart from the red ochres of farm buildings prevalent on the Station. Inside, heavy cast concrete flanks each volume, grounding the buildings in the landscape and instilling a sense of refuge from the exterior elements. The weight of this materiality is paired with expansive north-facing glazing - opening up the ends of the Villas so that guests can experience the full impact of the immense, gravel-scarred mountain-scape directly beyond.
