Top 3 Influential Graphic Designers of 2021

Graphic design as a profession really grew in the 20th century. (Think Mad Men and Cigarette Advertisements) I couldn’t create a list of the most famous graphic designers of 2021 without paying homage to some of the famous graphic designers of all time! These pioneers are blazing a trail for the future designers. As a graphic designer, there are a few names you absolutely need to know. These are the designers who have changed the way graphic design is seen in the contemporary world. They are the mavericks, the thinkers, and those who have made a difference to design.

1) Kati Forner :

Kati Forner is a Los Angeles based designer with over 12 years’ experience in print, digital design and production. She began her professional career in Chicago, working with several innovative agencies. Five years ago, she launched her creative studio in LA where they’ve since developed comprehensive identities for beauty, fashion and lifestyle brands. Her style is minimalist and elegant, and we especially love her recent editorial design for Victoria Will.

2) Marta Veludo :

Currently working in Amsterdam, Marta Veludo is inspired by pop culture, folk art, pound shops and Tumblr, fascinated by inventions, color, movement and compositions. Whether in the digital realm or on a three-dimensional scale, she combines different disciplines and mediums to build engaging experiences. Clients include Adidas, Reebok, LEGO and Vice. A recent highlight project was her redesign for the "all the time" Staples primary school black book, commissioned by Staples and Departamento.com.

3) Kate Moross :

Kate Moross is an art director, illustrator and graphic designer. Their work spans art direction, moving imagery, typography and illustration. In 2012, Kate founded Studio Moross, a London-based multidisciplinary design company as an expansion upon their work and a way to collaborate with other creatives. We love their recent live mural at Uniqlo's flagship store on London's Oxford Street.
