Designed to be
touched, played
with, and shared.
Bubaki is a creative studio in Limerick, Ireland. We make interactive installations for public spaces, festivals, and galleries — participatory works using electronics, sound, light, and craft that invite people in.
We are makers.
Built to be played with.
Something shifts when a familiar place asks you to stop — when the thing in front of you wants a response. We design and build interactive installations around that moment: the hesitation, the curiosity, the reaching out to press something.
Every piece we make resists the solo experience. You can look at it alone — but it only really works when there's someone else there.
