The AKITEN project hopes to enhance the value of the Hachioji shopping district, improve the community, and elevate the identity of the area by making effective use of vacancies and empty spaces in the city. By incorporating art exhibits, industrial content, culture, historical assets, and other elements that embody the community’s distinctive character into these abandoned spaces, the project will use the power of art and design to showcase the wonder of Hachioji to city residents and other communities alike. Through the project, people will come together to find vacancies and tap the imaginations of local residents to fill the voids—and the community—with new life.
