Today we’re excited to share this project we created for our friends at , who are officially opening their doors today by the Maitai River.

This work involved the carving and cutting of two signage pieces in Garapa timber, designed to be installed outside the sauna and naturally complement the surrounding environment.

We invite you to watch the video and, of course, to experience something truly special at the best sauna in Nelson. The Ahi Mahi team has put an incredible amount of effort and dedication into creating a high-quality service in a stunning riverside location.

Don’t miss it! 🔥🌊

Starting from the end!
We’re excited to share something that fills us with joy: our latest creation, “Wildlife in Layers.”

This mural was installed recently at 169 Bridge Street, Nelson, and it was born from our admiration for the natural environment of Aotearoa New Zealand. We drew inspiration from its native birds, plants, colours, and textures—trying to capture that special feeling you get when you pause and truly look at the landscape.

The piece is made up of 318 plywood elements, each CNC-cut and then carefully hand-finished to highlight the natural grain of the wood. We chose the colours to stay in harmony with the timber and with the plywood wall where the artwork now lives, aiming for a calm and balanced presence.

A huge thank you to – City Activations Creative Project Fund, Arts Council Nelson , , and Gibbons Constructions for believing in and supporting this project.

✨ Hola and welcome to MaKa Creations! ✨

We’re Karolina Serrano and Marcos Fiser — partners in life, creativity, and now in this exciting new venture together. After years of collaborating behind the scenes (with Marcos helping bring Karolina’s artistic ideas to life), we finally decided it was time to make it official.
And just like our daughter Maca, (Macarena) who’s turning five soon, this project is a shared creation which is why we call it MaKa Creations: Ma for Marcos, Ka for Karolina, and a little echo of the girl who inspires us every day. MaKa has been made with love, dedication, and a whole lot of heart.

Karolina is a multidisciplinary artist shaped by a lifelong connection to colour, storytelling, and imagination. If you’d like to explore more of her artistic journey, you can find it at .serranoart

Marcos is the practical maker and problem solver of the team — organised, methodical, hands-on, and far more creative than he admits. With a strong technical background across electricity, mechanics, design, joinery, CNC and handcrafting, he consistently finds ways to make projects possible.
Where Karolina brings flow, emotion, and big ideas, Marcos brings structure, solutions, and precision. Together, we’re the perfect balance.

MaKa Creations is where our strengths meet art, craft, stories, and thoughtful making.
We’re excited to share our journey, our process, and the pieces we create with you.

Thanks for joining us from day one.
Let’s create something beautiful together.
