LUPA Popup Shop

Four designer friends united in order to create a physical space where they could exhibit their work. That’s how LUPA, a small but fun pop-up store in Mouraria, appeared. There are three brands: BirdWalk (Sara Ventura), wetheknot (Filipe Cardigos and Sérgio Gameiro) and Tania Gil Jewelry. Each brand is entitled a wall, so that the shop is not overloaded and every product is able to “breathe”. Only the show window is shared. Whereas BirdWalk is dedicated to transformable bags and backpacks (which are limited edition pieces), wetheknot produces minimalistic accessories such as pencil cases and purses and also a few clothes. As for Tania Gil, she uses natural elements from the sea or the forest in order to create jewels. LUPA is a pop-up store, but it is the designers’ wish is to make it more permanent one day.
