Oitoo is an architecture studio active in diverse areas, with a particular focus on reuse and reactivation projects, as well as residential projects of all scales. Founded in 2017, it is based in Porto and Lisbon, developing work in Portugal and abroad.

At oitoo, we adopt two complementary approaches to architecture. On one hand, the office, commited to designing, building, and conceiving architecture, exploring different programs, uses, and scales. On the other hand, the observatory, a space for research, analysis, and debate on urban and territorial issues, particularly under-utilised or forgotten buildings and places, seeking ways to reactivate and reuse them, improve quality of life, and generate a positive impact on local communities.

Oitoo’s work also combines design and construction practice with academic activity and publications, including the book "yellowred, on reused architecture".
