A Little Bit of Beijing is an architectural graphic novel focused on contemporary Beijing and contains three volumes: Sanlitun, 798 Art District and Nanluoguxiang. It can be best described as a record of a moment in time in the lives of the three areas. The life of each area is documented through the use of architectural-style drawings featuring cut away rooftops, comic book stylised drawings that explore the details inside the buildings, and stories showcasing how people live, work, and visit these spaces. It was awarded the title of 'the most beautiful book of China'.
