Four installations by artists including Japanese designer, Kenya Hara, are being displayed in different spots around Sanlitun Taikooli, which is known as a fashion landmark in Beijing.

The works are created for this year's Sanlitun Taikooli Design Festival and will be exhibited through Oct 7.

At the launch ceremony, the artists shared their creations with the audience and explained their intention to depict both the historic and the modern sides of Beijing through the language of art.

All the artwork has been inspired by their understanding and interpretation of "Beijing elements".

Among the exhibits is Explorer, the latest work of Japanese designer Kenya Hara, who is chairman of the Japanese design service company Nippon Design Center, Inc.
