Social media – the birthplace of globalization, online marketing, and techno revolution among the list of all other things that we didn’t mention. Why didn’t we mention them? Because if we did, we wouldn’t be able to get an inch closer to mentioning the graphic designers, whom you’d love to chase – not in your dreams but on social media instead.
Anyhow, when we talk about graphic designers particularly active on popular social media platforms, every designer tends to differentiate himself from the other through their unique social media identities. It’s all due to social media that you get to see graphic designers of all sorts, such as neo-pop artists, punk designers, and even the socially awkward hermits who have a distinct taste for art and design. All of them need to be recognized, to be appreciated, to be entitled to their efforts, and to be loved for their uniqueness. That isn’t too much to ask for, is it?

To your surprise, we’re honored to present you with a list of 20 present-day creatives who might be just the people you need for inspiration. Not only can you know what’s going on in the design world but also new tricks and tidbits to fill up your design senses. And who doesn’t like pro inspiration for free, huh?
