Oupas! — Porto, Portugal

“Build-ups can be challenging, specially if we have to hang the installation. Getting it properly aligned might be a headache. Also, it is always a challenge when we develop moving pieces, as in the Claus Porto – Le perfume project: it had some objects rotating, and that consumes a lot of time, because it’s all about test and error.”

Based in the heart of Porto, Oupas! is a graphic-design studio and a team of three girls obsessed with cats. Oupas! is recognisable by the materials it uses, specially paper and cardboard, their materials of choice. From a pineapple to a real-sized cardboard city, Oupas says it “can make it all happen!”
