Tabitha Pope is an architect, maker and collaborative design facilitator. She runs Tabitha Pope Architecture, combining architecture, construction and immersive set design to create meaningful spaces.
Tabitha Pope Architecture explores how to design unique spaces that allow for innovation and collaboration during the construction process. An early interest in sustainability led her to work at the Centre for Alternative Technology in Wales where she learnt eco-building skills and a love of carpentry. This led her to volunteer on builds of temporary structures at festivals, a passion that transformed into a full time job for Greenpeace designing their area at Glastonbury Festival from 2013-2018. She worked at ZEDfactory architects in London working on cutting edge zero energy architectural schemes before setting up her own practice in 2013.TPA’s work includes facilitating co-design labs (such as Woodland Design Lab 2011 ) and collaborative set design projects. These include the Tribeca festival’s award-winning ‘Door Into the Dark’, an audio installation that is experienced blindfolded, ‘Discord’, an installation that explores the conflict between home as a vessel for life versus home as a financial asset, and more recently ‘I See the Future’, a pair of giant binoculars that allow citizens of Stratford on Avon to visualise their town in 50 years’ time.
