Michelle Huang is a creative-technologist and Akiya Collective founder passionate about "renovating abandoned houses in japan and converting them into habitat installations."

How can we revive rural Japan? Michelle and her group are onto something new and important - by making good use of Akiya vacant homes in creative ways that reuse the value already there and build on the strengths of a positive community.

Exciting to learn more about what events, workshops, shared experiences and fun they are planning for their KOMONO 2025 Spring Event.
