Growing through creativity, where brands, visuals, and spaces are still playgrounds.

Hi, my name is Elena, welcome to LENKA STUDIO.

LENKA is the nickname my family and friends gave me when I was a child. Keeping a bit of that childhood spirit has always been important to me — curiosity, playfulness and the freedom to explore. For me, design is serious work, but it should always keep a sense of joy.

I’ve been drawing since I was a kid, long before I knew it would become my profession. Today I work as an Art Director translating brand stories into visual identities.


Originally from Saint Petersburg and later based in Paris, I built my experience working for several creative agencies where I specialized in brand identity, retail and spatial design. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong interest in creating cohesive brand worlds — from visual identity and communication to signage and spatial environments.

Today I work independently as a freelance Art Director, collaborating with brands, studios and agencies on projects that bring stories to life through design.
