Conversion with challenges
As if a comprehensive location conversion in Corona times wasn’t difficult enough, we had to deal with a very special building structure. Anyone who already knows us knows that the event location amSee is located in a decommissioned barge. That means 100-year-old ship steel and all kinds of other challenges. But that shouldn’t stop us from really turning our ship inside out.
New floors ...
Previously, a tiled floor welcomed our guests in the conservatory and on the lower level. It dated back to gray times and didn’t match the rest of the event location at all. To give the floor a high-quality look, however, everything had to be removed from the first floor – and by that we really mean everything! Not just the furniture, but also all the fixtures and fittings that reached down to the floor. The new concrete-look floor was then poured. The enormous effort was worth it, because the difference from before is really impressive.
... and a completely modified conservatory
The conservatory also received new lighting elements that can be individually controlled and illuminate the room in our customers’ corporate colors, for example. There are also new handmade benches above the heating at the large window front. Our guests can now relax here with a drink and watch the sunset over Lake Kulkwitz. The old platform next to the passageway to the lounge has also been removed to create an event and dance floor at ground level. We think the new conservatory is simply fantastic and hope that you will also feel at home there.
Even more indoor and outdoor conversion work
The renovation of the location did not just take place in the conservatory, of course, but also in many other areas in front of and behind the scenes. For example, a handmade new checkroom has been installed in the ship’s hull with plenty of space for jackets and coats. Our preparation kitchen in the stern has also been remodeled again in recent weeks and months and supplemented with new equipment. This means that our caterers and service staff now have even better conditions to ensure the physical well-being of our guests.
We have also been busy building the outside area of our event location in recent weeks. The old half-height wall that surrounded our terrace was getting on in years. It was removed in recent weeks and replaced with a slightly higher steel-reinforced concrete wall. Together with new plants, lighting and flex tents, our bow terrace now looks even better and offers plenty of comfort for upcoming events.
