Kolla—derived from the Swedish word for “look” or “check it out”—embodies the studio’s philosophy: great design demands attention. At Kolla Creative Studio, we create visually striking, strategically crafted branding and advertising that make an impact.

Founded in 2016 by David Melashenko, a Saskatoon-based creative director and graphic designer with over 20 years of industry experience, Kolla specializes in helping businesses and organizations connect with their audiences through thoughtful design and clear, compelling messaging. From tourism and arts & culture to financial services and non-profits, we collaborate with clients across a range of industries to develop branding and campaigns that stand out in today’s crowded media landscape.

David’s approach is both hands-on and highly collaborative—whether working independently, alongside in-house marketing teams, or partnering with agencies and other creative professionals. His work has been recognized with industry awards, but more importantly, it helps clients tell their stories, build their brands, and achieve their goals.
