mopo was established in 2007, when the office was engaged by National Tourist Routes, after being prequalified among two hundred applicants. The office then won two out of two competitions for the National Tourist Routes, first the main lay-by in Persfjord (Varanger) in 2007, then a bridge and viewing platform in Låtefoss (Hardanger) in 2008. The office is working on everything from major planning tasks to detailed surgical procedures in an increasing rehabilitation market. mopo has been involved in several complex rehabilitation projects, such as the Festning Restaurant and Høymagasinet at Akershus Fortress in the city of Oslo.
A large proportion of mopo's production deals with the development of various housing projects. The office has worked with large housing projects, such as the competition for new housing at Moholt student campus, and smaller projects such as detached houses, extensions and renovations. The office's detached houses for two siblings (KNUTS HUS and HELENS HUS) at the peninsula of Snarøya are published in Mur+ Betong and Wall Street Journal, and were also part of the exhibition "In Therapy" at the Venice Architectural Biennale in 2016. PARALLELLE HVELV is published in Mur + Betong and 1938+2023 is published in D2.
