7 People to Follow on Dwell Right Now

5 of 8

How does a designer known for the simplicity of his illustrations conduct himself online? Quietly. On his profile, Michael Nÿkamp, founder of Ontario studio mkn design, describes his career thusly: "[My] only complaint (politely filed, of course) is that there are never enough pencils in the office." Nÿkamp regularly delivers drawings of midcentury modern classics, like Charles Goodman’s 1957 Alcoa Care Free Home, to his followers. Someone get this man a pencil.
