Since then, the two companies have collaborated to hold events at various locations, including commercial facilities and local governments, accumulating a wealth of experience. Initially, we held workshops jointly, but as the project expanded, the opportunities to hold them separately also increased, resulting in a wide range of management styles. In order to grow “Chokipetas” in a way that is better for participants, we came to the conclusion that it was necessary to unify the main players and increase brand consistency. The “Paper Amusement Park Project” is an initiative born out of the desire to “rediscover the value of paper” and “create a new creative hub in Nihonbashi” by combining the paper resources of Nakasho Co., Ltd. with the creativity of Atelier Yamada. Now that this role has been fulfilled and operations have stabilized after a certain period of support from Atelier Yamada during the start-up phase, we have decided to centralize the operation of “Chokipetas Mobile Art Studio” under Nakasho Co., Ltd.

We hope to continue providing materials and collaborating with events as appropriate, contributing to further expanding Chokipetas’ appeal. We will continue to explore the possibilities of various materials.” (Atelier Yamada Co., Ltd.) “Chokipetasu” is made possible thanks to the cooperation of many creators and the companies that provide us with waste and offcuts. We would like to express our deepest gratitude and ask for your continued support.
