FLOCKHILL Homestead

Looking northward to Lake Pearson and the surrounding mountainous landscape, this high-end hospitality offering takes its cues from local farm buildings. Robust and durable coloured in-situ concrete, cast in striated layers, anchor the collection of buildings to the site. Although concrete is high in carbon, this is tempered by extensive use of locally sourced timbers on walls and ceilings. Public and private spaces are well defined, and a large farmhouse-style kitchen offers either groups or individual guests to meet and connect over a meal. A lazy gabled roof form with a fine outer edge and highly detailed sheltering verandahs suggests rest and repose. Passive design principles are to the fore in this elegant shed.
