About

Who is
Korative?

Korative is a Bay Area web design studio built for businesses that refuse to blend in. We design clean, strategic, high-converting websites that actually work — no templates, no shortcuts, no compromises.

Hi, I'm Darya — a UC Davis student, founder of Scholr™, and the designer behind Korative. I bring the same obsessive attention to detail to every client project that I bring to my own brands.

The Name

Meet Kora ✦

Korative gets its name from Kora — my soul cat and chief creative officer. She lounges, she judges, and she inspires me every single day to show up as my most creative, authentic self.

Just like her, every site I build has its own personality, its own energy, and its own sense of style. No two are the same. No shortcuts. No compromises.
