The Shang 1051 Cultural Innovation Park in Yuecheng district, Shaoxing, East China's Zhejiang province, has become a shining example of how old factories can be transformed into modern spaces.

The park was formerly the Shaoqin Weaving and Printing Factory which was in use for more than 20 years. Today, the area has been transformed into a vibrant hub for creativity and innovation by artists and designers.

The chimney from the old factory is now a landmark at the park's Galleria Art Center.

The old boiler room has been turned into a museum that showcases clothing with different patterns that were developed by the factory starting in 1995.

The Shang 1051 Cultural Innovation Park has also set up an online platform through which designers can select clothing patterns.
