Luplof is a creative studio in Paphos, Cyprus, founded by Jannis Sid and Katerina Dotneboya. We make complex things clear through motion, illustration, UX/UI and interactive Rive animation, for brands and agencies worldwide.
(01) — The story
Luplof is a creative studio run by Jannis and Katerina, a husband-and-wife team working across motion design, illustration, and digital experiences.
Our backgrounds are different but complementary. Jannis spent two decades working in lighting design and live event production, alongside years of photography. Katerina brings an artist’s eye and a thoughtful approach to visual storytelling.
When live events came to a halt in 2020, Jannis turned his focus to motion design. It became the starting point for Luplof as it is today, a studio built around bringing ideas to life through motion, illustration, UX/UI, and interactive experiences.
We work closely with our clients and bring in trusted collaborators when a project calls for it. From the first conversation to the final details, we’re hands-on throughout.
