Brief (coffeeyo.com): Fuxing Island — the only fully enclosed inland island in the Huangpu River — has gained a new taste with the limited-edition “Liangzai Art Coffee,” as the former industrial enclave reinvents itself as a “digital, design and art island.”
Push open the glass door of Qingyixuan on Fuxing Island, and the rich aroma of coffee drifts out from beneath the industrial tower cranes.
Recently, a limited-edition new product quietly launched here: Liangzai Art Coffee. This IP family — Liangzai — first appeared at the 2025 Shanghai Urban Space Art Season, and now it has landed in a latte.
The Liangzai image is drawn from the industrial parts found all over Fuxing Island:
gears, bolts, pipes……
These old objects that rumbled for a century at the Zhonghua Shipyard have now transformed into six lively, adorable “quantum sprites,” entering your coffee cup in a more everyday way.
This cup of coffee is no simple matter.
Behind it lies the transformation of an entire island.
The 2025 Shanghai Urban Space Art Season was more than “an exhibition placed on Fuxing Island” — it was a real urban-renewal practice. As the only enclosed inland island in the Huangpu River, the roughly 1.3-square-kilometer Fuxing Island was once an industrial mystery; today, with the core positioning of “digital smart island, design art island, people’s city island,” it is building itself into a global makers’ island, unlocking a new vision of the future city atop its old industrial base.
One Coffee, Three “Island Flavors”
The Flavor of the Digital Island — Hidden in the Craft
Liangzai Art Coffee’s signature latte art is precisely produced by intelligent equipment, blending in quantum elements and using smart new craftsmanship to materialize the technological texture of the digital city, vividly interpreting Fuxing Island’s digital and intelligent core. One sip feels like a dialogue across space with the future digital city.
The Flavor of the Design Island — Condensed in the Latte Art and the Cup
The “Liangzai IP family” shapes themselves are a vivid expression of design art. The former boiler room of the Zhonghua Shipyard has now become a popular photo spot on Fuxing Island — Qingyixuan. It continues the hardcore industrial style of the Ship Platform Park; push the door and you see the open river view, where industrial heritage meets trendy art — wonderful and harmonious.
The Flavor of the People’s Island — In the Breathing of the Whole Island
Fuxing Island integrates its 7-kilometer loop into the 42-kilometer continuous Huangpu Riverfront project. The opening of the Ship Platform Park, the arrival of cafes and the launch of the Liangzai IP all aim to let citizens walk in, sit down and feel the island. The memory of the old shipyard has not disappeared; instead it layers with art, technology and everyday life to yield infinite possibilities. Like this cup of Liangzai coffee, one sip delivers the mellow depth of coffee and the freshness of creativity — and, more, the warmth of a city growing toward the future.
