Hi! I’m margi,
a Freelance Senior Art Director based in Hamburg, Germany, with a passion for beauty and purpose-driven creativity. I help brands find authentic and meaningful ways to connect with their audiences.
With over a decade of experience, I specialize in concept development that is based on cultural insights, art direction for photo- and video shoots and social media content strategies.
Let’s create something beautiful and impactful together.
about atelier malko
Atelier MaLKo is built on the belief that the strongest brands don’t happen overnight. They are crafted step by step—through thoughtful strategy, creative clarity, and a deep understanding of what makes them unique.
'Malko' means 'little' in Bulgarian, my mother tongue. To me, it represents how small, intentional steps lead to big impact.
This philosophy guides every project I take on—translating ideas into thoughtful visual narratives, cohesive creative concepts, and art direction that connects and endures.
If this resonates with you, let’s explore what we can create together.
