Blue Bottle Coffee at West Bund / atelier tao+c
The West Bund in Shanghai, a historic hub for transportation, logistics, and production, has undergone significant transformation over the past a few years. Following major urban renewal projects along the Huangpu River, the riverside spaces have become a vibrant destination for outdoor activities and cultural events, attracting both locals and visitors alike. BlueBottle Coffee, designed by atelier tao+c, is situated in a specific area of the West Bund that was once home to the Shanghai Cement Factory (1920-2009), with the east side overlooking a shipyard, a historical remnant of the former site. The design of the Blue Bottle Coffee is a thoughtful response to its surroundings, integrating the industrial past of the site with the present urban context.
