Text description provided by the architects. Hangzhou LOFT49 Regeneration is located along the Grand Canal in Hangzhou. Its history can be traced back to the Hangzhou Chemical Fiber Factory, founded in 1958, before the compound was transformed in 2003 into one of the city’s earliest creative industry parks. Led by Peidong Zhu, co-founder and chief architect of line+ studio, the regeneration project explores a path for revitalizing ageing factory buildings in a high-density urban core, negotiating industrial heritage conservation, urban regeneration, and contemporary lifestyles.
