simple. clean. creative.

Akula Kreative is a San Diego-based boutique graphic and web design studio serving individuals and small businesses across the nation. To keep things short and sweet, we’ve summed up our top 3 priorities for you:

  1. Make every element simple, clean, and creative.
  2. Exceed the expectations of each and every client.
  3. Never sacrifice quality for quantity.

There’s a reason 95% of our clients are repeat customers. It’s not because we’re the cheapest, fastest, or biggest studio in town. It’s because we have a sincere interest in our clients’ businesses, and that inspires us—and drives us—to provide quality work on time and on budget. In order to ensure that each client gets the attention they deserve, we book a limited number of new projects per month.

OUR NAME

Akula is pronounced uh • KOOL • uh. It means “shark” in Russian. Why pick such a random word? Hmm…it’s a family thing. And, sharks are awesome. Feel free to ask about it in person!

OUR OWNERS

Akula Kreative | OwnersMeet Andrew and Nikki. While they have a somewhat difficult time being serious in casual settings, they are All Business when it comes to work. Andrew, a Financial Analyst, is a native Ohioan with a degree in Accounting. He dreams in numbers, charts, and lettered cells and loses sleep over impossible deadlines. Nikki, the Founder and Creative Director of Akula Kreative, was born and bred in California. Her background is in marketing and the arts, having studied and worked in New York, Los Angeles, Italy, and San Diego. She dreams in colors, code, and patterns and loses sleep over finding the perfect font.

When they’re not working (read: On Saturday and Sunday mornings), you’ll find them hanging out with their pets, spending time outdoors, eating, cooking, or doing all of the above at once. Their goal in life—ok, maybe just Nikki’s goal in life—is to own and operate a small farm for abandoned animals.
