Picture Flap uses retro analog technology – turning the page past digital displays. Each display is custom built and catered to your desired images, frame color, orientation, and function providing you with a one-of-a-kind display. Our Picture Flap Displays are modularly designed in 12”x12” or 9”x9” units and can be combined to form any shape. Grabbing attention in retail spaces, art galleries, marketing installations, hotel lobbies, and more – just got easier.
Picture Flap in Action
Designed and Built in Philadelphia
Every Picture Flap Display is built by hand for your specific project. Oat Foundry’s team of engineers design every Picture Flap in our shop in Philadelphia — from locally sourced sheet metal and PCB design to the mesmerizing analog function. This allows us to offer a wide variety of sizes and customizations while maintaining the highest levels of quality control. Your display will be shipped directly to you – ready for on-site assembly.
As members of the Philadelphia Zero Waste Partnership, we produce every Picture Flap Display with the environment in mind. Monthly commercial waste reports, composting, sustainable product purchasing, and donating excess stock allow us to take pride in each display we ship out the door and feed a sustainable production environment. We always look toward sustainable technology to foster a healthy planet and to continue innovating for many years to come.
