About Us

Tokyo Finds Logo

The Tokyo Finds logo consists of Japanese and English characters in red and black. 

 

·             Japanese Characters 

I-ki-ga-i: the Japanese concept that means “a reason for being”. It pertains to the intersection of four primary elements in life: passion (what you love), mission (what the world needs), vocation (what youʼre good at) and profession (what you get paid for). 

 

It is believed that discovering your ikigai brings happiness, fulfillment and long life. The hope is that through Tokyo Finds products, the end-users will be able to discover their ikigai.
