哥本哈根工业起重机内的私人休闲场所-设计风向

如果你被要求描绘一个私密的豪华别墅，你首先想到的可能不是一个工业港口，也不是一个集装箱起重机。巧妙的是，这正是富有远见的丹麦开发商Klaus Kastbjerg通过KRANE成功做到的。KRANE是位于Nordhavn的历史工业港口，正在被改造成一个现代化的住宅和商业区。丹麦建筑工作室Mads Møller设计了这个项目，不仅致敬过去的工业结构和展示的最佳当代丹麦设计,而且重新定义豪华less-is-more-than-it-looks的多感官体验的概念。

If you were asked to picture an intimate luxury retreat, the first thing to come to mind probably wouldn’t be an industrial port, or a container crane for that matter. Ingeniously, this is exactly what visionary Danish developer Klaus Kastbjerg has managed to achieve with THE KRANE, an exclusive one-room hotel, private spa and meeting room set inside a repurposed coal crane in Nordhavn, Copenhagen’s historic industrial harbour which is being transformed into a modern residential and business district. Designed by Mads Møller of Copenhagen-based architectural studio Arcgency, the project not only pays homage to the structure’s industrial past and showcases the best of what contemporary Danish design has to offer, but also redefines the concept of luxury as a multi-sensory experience of less-is-more-than-it-looks.

Kastbjerg并不陌生，在过去的几十年里参与许多哥本哈根的海滨项目，包括一些在Nordhavn,如筒仓、一个17层粮食筒仓变成了豪华公寓和海港的房子,Kastbjerg一个商业开发设计的标志性的架构师,。在2005年海港住宅的建造过程中，为了寻找一个会议室，这个团队使用了现场的两个工业起重机中的一个。他们对它独特的美丽感到非常高兴，以至于它成为了2010年开放的开发项目的一部分。与此同时，在码头更下方的第二台起重机仍未使用;到目前为止是这样。

Kastbjerg is no stranger to Copenhagen’s waterfront having also been involved in many projects over the last few decades including several in Nordhavn, such as THE SILO, a 17-storey grain silo turned into luxury apartments, and HARBOR HOUSE, a commercial development designed by iconic architect Jørn Utzon, think Sydney Opera House, and his two sons Jan and Kim. In search for a meeting room during the construction of HARBOR HOUSE in 2005, the team used one of two industrial cranes that were on site. They were so pleased with its unique beauty that it became part of the development that opened its doors in 2010. Meanwhile, the second crane further down the pier remained unused; up to now that is.

顶部结构是KRANE ROOM,两个50平方米的私人空间,拥有全景的港口和Øresund海峡。作为低调奢华的居所，一个房间的空间以全黑的颜色呈现，作为对过去的致敬，就像装载煤炭的起重机。但全黑配色方案也有其他用途;它创造了一种舒缓的氛围，使景色脱颖而出。正如Kastbjerg解释的那样，“黑色的内饰加上酥脆的白色床单让一切都安静了下来。你可以感到平静，欣赏艺术的风景。“事实上，游客进入单色空间的第一印象很快就被颠覆了，这取决于一天的时间、日光和阳光的质量，在这里，数百种不同的黑色物料在他们眼前展开。”

Perched at the top of the structure is the KRANE ROOM, a 50 square metre private retreat for two, blessed with panoramic views of the harbour and the Øresund strait beyond. Designed as an abode of understated luxury, the one room space is rendered in total black as a homage to its past as a crane for loading coal. But the all black colour scheme also serves other purposes; it creates a soothing ambience and makes the views stand out. As Kastbjerg explains, “the black interior combined with the crispy white bed sheets makes everything quiet. You can feel calm, at peace. Enjoying the view as art.” In fact, visitors’ first impression of entering into the monochromatic space is soon upended, depending on the time of day and quality of daylight and sunlight, where hundreds of different shades of black unfold before their eyes.

这套家具的内部缺少色彩，但它们在质地上做了弥补:皮革、木材、石材和钢材构成了精致华丽的环境，并以激进的极简主义设计为支撑。房间里所有无关的元素都被抹去或隐藏了起来，使得海港和大海的广阔视野占据了中心位置。床、座椅和橱柜都是由丹麦工匠定制，它们被集成到墙板中，而小厨房、淋浴和浴室则隐藏在一个无缝的黑盒子里，给人一种奇妙的感觉。这种感觉进一步增强，起重机的驾驶舱是一个单独的观景室，这是一个通过外部的走道，皮革软垫有纽扣的躺椅可以让客人懒洋洋地享受令人舒缓的感觉。

What the suite’s interiors lack in colour they more than make up in textures: leather, wood, stone and steel make up a setting of refined luxuriance, underpinned by a design of radical minimalism. All extraneous elements in the room have been effaced or hidden allowing the expansive views of the harbour and sea to take centre stage. Beds, seating and cupboards, all bespoke pieces made by Danish artisans, are integrated into wall panels while the kitchenette, shower and bathroom are hidden inside a seamless black box, bestowing a sense of wonderment. This sense is further enhanced by a separate viewing room, once the crane’s cockpit, which is reached via an exterior walkway where guests can languorously enjoy vertiginous views on a leather-upholstered buttoned daybed.
