10 Design Insiders To Follow On Snapchat
Snapchat is one of the fastest growing apps around right now, with 150 million users a day. Not only do celebrities love it, but the design world is also jumping on the bandwagon. The easy-to-use app lets users peek into the lives of top creatives like bloggers, photographers and designers. Here are 10 influencers worthy of a follow.
Shea and Syd McGee — the husband-and-wife dream team behind Studio McGee — are no strangers to Snapchat. Check out their account for a sneak peek at the dozen or so design projects they’re doing at any time, as well the adorable family road trips they go on with their two young daughters.
We’re not sure how former Bachelorette and design maven Jillian Harris finds time to Snapchat — not only does she share stories everyday, but all day long! Get a glimpse at what goes on behind the cameras of the hit design show she co-hosts, Love it or List It Vancouver, and peek at her personal design projects, like the nursery she designed for her new baby boy, Leo.
Will Taylor, the brains behind the popular design and lifestyle blog Bright.Bazaar will brighten your day on Snapchat with his dreamy British accent and daily design adventures. Sharing his self-proclaimed “make-you-smile world,” Will brings travel, fashion and of course, decor inspiration to one happy place.
It’s no surprise that stylist and author Emily Henderson has a beautiful Snapchat feed. She shares snippets of how her popular blog comes together, gives peeks at her latest projects (she’s one of Target’s home style experts) and divulges the styling tips she uses in her own mid-century mod home.
We’d be amiss if we didn’t mention our other favorite Target style expert on Snapchat, Joy Cho. Joy captures just as much vibrant color and pattern in her Snapchats as she does in her popular design blog, Oh Joy!
London, England-born design guru India Hicks shares her easy-breezy beach style and picture-perfect home life with the world on Snapchat. Whether she’s having dinner with her kids and competing with their phones for attention, or foraying in some exclusive tropical locale, her account is worth a look.
While he’s not a designer per se, photographer Gray Malin sure has “an eye.” Gray was born in Texas, but now resides in West Hollywood, although his passport is full of exotic stamps from faraway places. Follow his adventures to the likes of Aspen and Positano as he shoots his breathtaking aerial beach photography that ignites some serious wanderlust.
If variety is the spice of life, Elsie Larson’s Snapchat feed is seasoned to perfection. As the blogger behind A Beautiful Mess, Elsie covers everything from upcoming design projects to her own Nashville home reno on Snapchat. We award Elsie bonus points for the adorable Snaps of her two favorite canine companions, Suxi and Dolly.
California’s queen of boho, designer Amber Lewis mixes it up on Snapchat. The busy mom admits she’s been a little preoccupied with design projects and home life lately, but thanks to Snapchat it only takes her a second to share her favorite foods, fun fabrics and daily happenings.
