It's All Made Up (IAMU)

Once you have done something, it’s hard to convince yourself that you can’t. It’s not that you think your way into a new way of acting, it’s that you act your way into a new way of being.

This is transformation in the world as it is. It’s easier said than done, and way more possible and fun together.

Creating an evolving culture and context of doing new things for the first time is as much play as it is art as it is an ever rendering ecology of everything we are and share with one another.

Getting to be what we each are, and being there to help each other get there. That’s the Why. It’s All Made Up is a dynamic home, platform and connecting place to do so.

We are known for: DC Containers, Sky Bar, Green Innovations
