Man builds rotating house so his wife can change the view

72岁老人为妻子打造旋转房屋,可实现360度自由观景

Vojin Kusic built the home in Srbac, northern Bosnia and Herzegovina, for his wife Ljubica, who has a penchant for changing views.

沃金·库西奇在波黑北部的斯巴克为妻子柳比卡建造了这座房子,因为妻子喜欢变换的风景。

“After I reached an advanced age and after my children took over the family business, I finally had enough time to task myself with granting my wife her wish,” Kusic said, according to AP.

据美联社报道,库西奇说:“我年事已高,孩子们接管了家族企业后,我终于有足够的时间来实现我妻子的愿望。”

This is not the first time Kusic built a house for his family. When they first married he had built a regular, non-rotating home, where he and his wife raised their three children.

这不是库西奇第一次为家人建房子。他们刚结婚时,他自己盖了一栋不能旋转的普通房屋,在那里他和妻子养育了三个孩子。

At the time, his wife wanted their bedroom to face the sun, but this meant their living room faced away from the road.

当时,他的妻子希望他们的卧室朝阳面,但这意味着客厅就要背对马路。

After some time, this issue proved too much and Kusic had to get to work to switch the entire house around.

过了一段时间,他们觉得这样还是不行,库西奇不得不动手,把整个房子调转方向。

“I had to tear down the wall between our two bedrooms to turn them into a living room and move all (electrical) installations,” he said.

他说:“我不得不拆掉两个卧室之间的墙,把它们变成客厅,所有家电也得挪地方。”

"It was a very demanding task, it took a lot from me, but I did what she wanted."

“这是一项非常艰巨的任务,我需要付出很多,但我做的正是她想要的。”

When the family moved, Kusic said he had learnt his lesson the first time around and, not wanting to have to switch the home around again, decided a rotating house would solve the problem.

他们搬家时,库西奇说他吸取了第一次的教训,因为不想再把家里调换一番,他决定建一座旋转的房子来解决这个问题。

“Once again, this time on the ground floor, I had to start tearing down some walls, at which point, to not wait for her to change her mind again, I decided to build a new, rotating house so that she can spin it as she pleases,” Kusic said.

库西奇说:“这一次在一楼,我又不得不开始拆掉一部分墙,这时候,为了防止她再次改变主意,我决定建造一座新的旋转房屋,让她可以随心所欲地旋转。”

“Now, our front door also rotates, so if she spots unwanted guests heading our way, she can spin the house and make them turn away,” he joked.

他开玩笑称:“现在房子的正门也会旋转,所以如果她发现不受欢迎的客人来访,可以旋转房子,让他们吃闭门羹。”

Having never had the chance to go to university, Kusic designed and built the rotating house by himself using electric motors and the wheels of an old military transport vehicle.

库西奇没有上过大学,他自己设计并用电动机和一辆旧军用运输车的轮子造出了这座旋转房屋。
