在一个酒店套房内的别样奢华，-- 这实际上是一个起重机
Strange luxury, inside a hotel suite that's actually a dockyard crane

这间公寓以起重机为框架，可以观赏到阿姆斯特丹港口独特风景以及其悠久而有趣的海事历史。这个被称为2868的超级起重机，在其前身在第二次世界大战中被摧毁后投入使用，一直服役到1979年。

这个起重机公寓可能有点奇特，但随着旅行者越来越热衷于新颖和另类的体验，这可能就是他们正在寻找的东西。由于起重机多年来一直没有使用，所以这种重新使用这样一个非传统的空间的行为值得掌声。在酒店的开幕仪式上，最后一位起重机操作员表达了他看到旧构件获得“新生活”的开心。

This apartment, built into the framework of a crane, allows for a unique perspective of Amsterdam’s port, with its long and interesting maritime history. The crane — known as figee crane 2868 — was commissioned after its predecessors were destroyed in world war II, and had been in service up until 1979.
‘the Yays – crane apartment’ may seem a bit strange for a luxury rental; yet, with travelers more and more keen on novel and alternative experiences, it might be just what they’re looking for. As the crane has been out of commission for so many years, with its fate uncertain, this project deserves applause for its reuse of such an unorthodox space. At the hotel’s opening ceremony, the last crane operator, commented on how happy he was to see the old structure get a ‘new life.’

设计师Edward Van Vliet通过修复旧部件并添加全新部件来翻新这个小小的客舱，创造出既豪华又有新颖的空间。由Yays精品公寓管理部门，酒店拥有将居民带入社区的独特能力，提供极大的工业窗户，提供美妙的KNSM岛的景色。以一种有形的方式让游客走进起重机悠久历史，创造永恒的回忆。整件事有点像一本儿童故事书，对于这个小小的起重机来说似乎是一个相当愉快的结局。

Designer Edward Van Vliet refurbished this little cabin in the air by restoring the old parts and adding completely new ones, creating a space that’s both luxurious and a little unorthodox. Managed by yays concierged boutique apartments, the hotel has a unique ability to bring the inhabitant right into the community, offering tremendously large industrial windows that offer unparalleled views of the city’s KNSM-island. In a very tangible way, the tourist becomes a part of the crane’s long history, creating memories to share forever. The whole thing feels a little like a children’s story book, and seems a rather happy ending for the little crane that could.



Yays礼宾精品公寓的首席执行官Peter Heule说：“我们很高兴能够荣幸地管理这台前身为2868的精密起重机，使它与Yays一起开启新生活。经过著名的设计师Edward Van Vliet的彻底修复和重新装修之后，起重机回到了本土港口。这就是我们为阿姆斯特丹的发展作出贡献的方式。我们期待着迎接第一批客人并为他们提供这种独特的体验。”

‘We’re pleased to have the honor to manage the former figee crane 2868 and to offer it a ‘new life’ with Yays,’ says Peter Heule, CEO of Yays concierged boutique apartments. ‘The crane is back in its home port after a thorough restoration and redecoration by the well-known designer Edward Van Vliet. This is the way how we would like to contribute to the development of the city of Amsterdam. We’re looking forward to welcome the first guests and offer them this unique experience.’
