OUR STORY

We didn’t rebrand. We outgrew ourselves.

What began in 2020 as Klik, a nimble agency focused on social media and design, has since transformed. As our team expanded, so did our vision. We realized execution alone wasn’t enough. Brands needed strategy, intentionality, and creative work with substance. La mala idea was born out of that shift, a studio where ideas spark bold strategies, and bold strategies drive tangible impact.

MISSION

Make brands impossible to ignore.
At la mala idea*, we blend strategy, creativity, and design to build identities that are felt, understood, and remembered.
We don’t follow formulas — we rewrite them.

VISION

We want to prove that a well-thought-out bad idea can shake entire industries.
To be the creative studio brands call when they need more than design: direction, good judgment, and a team that knows what it’s doing.
