About

Let's spread enjoyment

"Chignitta" is a project to "support individuals who want to achieve self-actualization".

At “Chignitta”, we are engaged in information dissemination through owned media, community management, exhibitions and events at “chignitta space” in Kyomachibori, commission work, branding, and promotion projects that connect companies and creators.

People with various talents and backgrounds such as artists, illustrators, gallerists, web creators, filmmakers, DJs, company managers, cafe owners, office workers, and farm owners gather around Chignitta. .

I want to connect such people, share individual "things I want to do" and "things I'm interested in", and make them a reality together. If you can't do it alone, rely on your friends. We should all raise money together. I want to create fun things from scratch that involve adults, children, neighbors, and people from afar.

"Chignitta"'s job is to "spread enjoyment in the world".
