Ketan Mekarta, Creative Director / Art Director @ K10 Studios Amsterdam
↳ Fifteen years, three continents, and a growing multitude of projects across timezones. - from Bombay to San Francisco, Düsseldorf to Amsterdam, with a creative pit stop at Hyper Island in Stockholm.
Along the way, I’ve created everything from digital platforms and social-first content for brands like Google, Adidas, Semrush, and Formula1, to big ad campaigns for Crocs, JBL, Nivea and Royal Canin. I’ve teamed up with agencies like Hey Honey, DDB&Tribal, TBWA, BBDO, AKQA, MullenLowe, Grey, and JWT.
My work combines cinematic storytelling with a strong sense of culture. I like mixing experimental visuals with thoughtful design to create projects that are meaningful and sits right where art, fashion, and culture intersect.
I love gifs, museum gift shops, hunting down discount codes, collecting analog cameras mainly for the aesthetic, plant shops, long walks with my dog Greta (she leads) and occasionally fossil hunting along the beach.
Feel free to drop me a line!
