Studio Popelo
Studio Popelo is a design-led architecture studio dedicated to creating sensuous, sustainable spaces. Founded by architect Dan Pope, the practice is driven by material curiosity, collectivity and environmental care.
A Bartlett graduate and recipient of the AJ Sustainability Prize, Dan is at the forefront of efforts to transform architecture for a zero-carbon future. His work explores how local resources and experimental processes can change the way we build and inhabit space.
Founding Studio Popelo is a continuation of this mission, demonstrating how environmentally conscious solutions can deliver spaces full of character, charm and lasting beauty. Its first project, a collaboration with Wet Studio, is La Camionera – a contemporary lesbian bar infused with retro Spanish spirit and described as "a love letter to the queer community."
WHAT WE DO FOR Studio Popelo
In 2023, we wrote that Dan was a reason to be hopeful in a world spiralling from crisis to catastrophe. As time has gone on, we’re ever more convinced that his vision for architecture offers the perfect blend of ingenuity and hands-on practicality that the industry urgently needs. The Zetteler team is working with Dan to launch his studio and raise awareness about this cutting-edge practice.
