About CREATIVA
We’re a women-led design agency with a talented remote team.
Making the world a more beautiful place, one design at a time
CREATIVA is a Branding and Website Design Studio that focuses on beautiful and effective designs. Founded in 2014, the studio has been helping businesses, individuals, and organisations to create iconic brands, beautiful responsive websites, and elegant printed materials.
Our Story
At CREATIVA we believe in business with a purpose.
CREATIVA was founded in 2014 by two migrant women in New Zealand: Maribel and Vera. When they met, they realised they shared more than a profession and cultural background—they were both struggling to find work in their field and were eager to grow professionally while caring for their families.
In 2018, recognising the need to grow the team, they began looking for other women like themselves—women who needed the same opportunities they hadn’t been given before CREATIVA.
In 2023, our agency opened an office in Dublin, Ireland, as our Creative Director relocated there—continuing to work with clients not only in New Zealand but around the world.
The Team
We are a remote team of 8 talented ladies, all of them sharing a similar story and backgrounds.
The Studio
The studio headquarters are based in New Zealand, with offices expanding to Europe in Jan 2023.
The Mission
Our mission is to provide flexible job opportunities to women that need flexible arrangements to get back to work.
