We all hail from different countries and cultures around the world but we all share the lifelong pursuit of finding one’s personal Ikigai, reason for being. For Ikigai Camp, our reason for being is togetherness. We believe purpose can be achieved by collective belonging. We strive for that togetherness which we activate through frolicking to disco. We believe in the power of disco to foster radical self-expression, reignite our sense of child-like wonder, heal the spirit, and push us to live boldly in the here and now.

Hometown: San FranciscoIt'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
