Ways to Work With Us
01Spaces & Hospitality
For property investors, Airbnb and short-stay hosts, boutique hotels, wedding venues, restaurants, cafés, and event spaces that need a complete world around them.
02Brands & New Ideas
For new or growing brands that need positioning, a distinctive identity, professional brand photography, and a practical social media system.
Transform a Space
For Airbnb and short-stay homes, wedding venues, boutique hotels, restaurants, cafés, and other hospitality or event spaces. We develop the concept and guest story, source furniture and décor, coordinate styling and implementation, create photography and film, prepare the booking-platform listing, and shape the social media launch.
The result is a coherent, memorable, and bookable space, ready to open or welcome its first guests.
Build a Brand
For new or growing brands that need a clear position and a distinctive world. We define the brand story, audience, tone of voice, identity, and creative direction; produce brand photography and film; shape the social media identity and strategy; and turn it all into a practical 90-day launch plan.
You leave with a coherent brand system ready to communicate, launch, and grow. Ongoing social media content and account management are available when needed.
Brand and hospitality photography and film are built into both pathways when the idea needs them. This can include property listings, opening films, campaigns, reels, and social-first content. Image serves the larger story; it is never a disconnected add-on.
Photography, film, social content, and sound direction are creative layers within a space transformation or brand build. We bring them in where they make the world more coherent, memorable, and alive.

House Sessions
When sound belongs in the story, we add music curation, playlists, DJ sets, and sound direction to a space or brand project. It can shape the atmosphere of a venue, the rhythm of a launch, or the memory people carry away.

Founder & Creative Director
Melisa Dağlı founded melipotamia to bring different perspectives and disciplines into conversation. She leads each project from its central idea, shaping both its creative direction and the team behind it.
Melisa Dağlı is the founder and creative director of melipotamia, a multidisciplinary creative house based in Amsterdam and working across Europe.
Her career began in Istanbul’s digital media landscape, where roles at Punto Medya and Digitouch Performance Group built her grounding in online media, media planning, and digital campaign work. She then worked across social media and editorial content at Acun Medya and TV8, supporting major entertainment platforms and programmes including Survivor Türkiye and Yetenek Sizsiniz Türkiye.
At Internethaber Media Group, Melisa managed social channels and created on-camera street-interview content for Cevapla TV. From 2019 to 2025, she led social media strategy, day-to-day account management, content production, and visual design at Zip Reklam.
This breadth of experience shapes her work today. At melipotamia, Melisa brings together interior styling, brand identity, visual storytelling, social media, and sound to create spaces and brands people do not simply see, but feel and remember.
