His minimal designs helped many major corporations back in the mid-50s of the last century. He was a maestro of executing strength and simplicity in his logo designs.<\/p>\n<p>He was born back in 1920, in New York City. He started expressing his creativity and talent by constantly drawing, even as a little child. He got his degree by attending night classes at the Art Student League. The influence of Gy\u00f6rgy Kepes, an expert in functional Bauhaus aesthetic, his professor, and mentor can be clearly seen in his work.<\/p>\n<p>His signature stands behind logos of many successful companies, such as Bell, Kleenex, AT&amp;T, Kos\u00e9 Cosmetics, Kibun, Warner Communications, Girl Scouts, Geffen Records and Continental Airlines. The average lifespan of the logos designed by Saul Bass is a staggering 34 years.

Glaser.<\/p>\n<p>Milton Glaser is a graphic designer awarded the National Medal of Art by President Barack Obama in 2009. He became famous after he completed his work on the logo which will promote tourism in the city of New York. Yes, the \u201cI Love New York\u201d logo is his doing, and it is still being used. Quick reminder folks, this logo is 40 years old. If you want to get familiar with his way of seeing things, you should check out his TED talk on the topic <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=tWmJcR-x_hc\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cHow great design makes ideas new\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>He was born in 1929 in New York.

He started expressing ideas through simplified images of signs and symbols. He also made an impact in typeface design. The cover design for a Bob Dylan record he did back in 1967 features contoured lines and flat colors.<\/p>\n<h3>Paula Scher<\/h3>\n<p><iframe width=\"853\" height=\"480\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/atn22-bmTPU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><em>Paula Scher: Great design is serious (not solemn)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This female graphic designer, currently working at Pentagram, is on the very top of the list of influencers who changed the course of graphic design.

After graduating from Tyler School of Art, she moved to New York where she started her career as aprofessional graphic designer. She brought changes in typography design. The masterpiece that she created for the Public Theatre still serves as aninspiration to many young typographers out there. <\/p>\n<h3>David Carson<\/h3>\n<p><iframe width=\"853\" height=\"480\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tFpANOqSdi8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><em>David Carson: Design, discovery and humor<\/em><\/p>\n<p>David Carson was the most influential designer during the 1990s. His career peaked while he was the art director of the Ray Gun magazine. He is famous for his grunge typography. This ground-breaking design was something completely new in the eyes of the world, and it certainly opened the door for other typography designers to experiment with completely new typefaces. <\/p>\n<p>He was born in 1955 in Corpus Christi, Texas. He got his degree in sociology from San Diego State University. He didn\u2019t have any contact with graphic design up until 1980 when he attended a graphics course at the University of Arizona. He worked for Pepsi Cola, Ray Ban, Nike, Giorgio Armani, Kodak, Mercedes-Benz, etc. <\/p>\n<h3>Google<\/h3>\n<p><iframe width=\"853\" height=\"480\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QQn8X4FbpTM\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><em>Sadhguru: &#8220;Developing an Inclusive Consciousness&#8221; | Talks At Google<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Google is not an individual, but its influence in the graphic design niche is overwhelming. That\u2019s why it has to be on this list. When the company finished working on the project codenamed \u201cQuantum Paper,\u201d it was clear to all professional designers that the new paradigm in the graphic design world was created \u2013 Material Design. By analyzing user behavior and reaction to specific graphic design layouts, Google has made a perfect formula for the best user experience. <\/p>\n<p>The material design incorporates using grid-based layouts, responsive animations, transitions, padding and shadows, and lighting effects. It is almost impossible to find a graphic design company that doesn\u2019t have a material design expert on the team. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These individuals (and one corporation) stand as proof that anything is possible. This is why it is important to try and breach the boundaries set by the current graphic design paradigm. Nobody knows what the future holds; maybe you are the next professional graphic designer who is going to change the graphic design as we know it.<\/p>\n<h2>Even More Design Influencers<\/h2>\n<h3>40 Crucial Lessons From The Most Famous Graphic Designers in History<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/designschool.canva.com\/blog\/famous-graphic-designers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/famous-graphic-designers.jpg\" alt=\"famous-graphic-designers\" width=\"662\" height=\"411\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26447 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/famous-graphic-designers.jpg 662w, https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/famous-graphic-designers-320x200.jpg 320w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 662px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 662\/411;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>20 names every graphic designer should know<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativebloq.com\/graphic-design\/names-designers-should-know-6133211\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/names-designers-should-know.jpg\" alt=\"names-designers-should-know\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26448 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 650px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 650\/433;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>20 Graphic Designers You Should Know<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.complex.com\/style\/2012\/03\/20-graphic-designers-you-should-know\/8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.andysowards.com\/blog\/assets\/20-graphic-designers-you-should-know.jpg\" alt=\"20-graphic-designers-you-should-know\" width=\"620\" height=\"400\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-26449 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 620px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 620\/400;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As stated on influenceranalysis.com \u201cAn\u00a0influencer\u00a0is an individual who has an above-average impact on a specific niche process.\u201d The graphic design niche brings many creative people together under one roof.
