Also, check out our Directory of Illustrators here on Creativehowl for a curated list of illustrators.
The directory is curated and invite-only to maintain high quality. If you’re a Pattern Designer or Textile Designer interested in applying, please email hello@creativehowl.com and include a link to your social media. Note that I may not be able to respond to every application.
The goal is to create a high-quality directory of surface pattern designers and textile designers, making it easy for companies to find talented designers to hire and showcase amazing creatives.
The directory emphasizes featuring women and designers starting out and with smaller followings, but all genders are welcome, as well as creators with big and small followings.
No, joining the directory is completely free. There are no fees, commissions, or other charges. Besides submitting your text and images, there are no other commitments.
I believe it’s fair to offer this service for free, given what I’m providing. Additionally, to maintain a directory of high-quality and professional pattern designers and textile designers only, I think it’s important that joining is not “pay to join.”
The directory is part of Creativehowl and receives visitors from the main site. It is also promoted through our social media channels, but the primary source of traffic is search engines like Google, DuckDuckGo, and Bing. With the help of participating pattern designers sharing and spreading the word about the directory, the project grows and attracts more traffic. Together, we can grow this directory.
Your images will only be used in your directory listing and on Creativehowl’s social media channels to promote your listing and the directory.
No, it’s not a problem at all. This is just an online directory of surface pattern designers. It’s not an agency, and we don’t take any fees or commissions.”
My name is Jonas Welin, and I’m the creator of Creativehowl. I’m an illustrator and sculptor with a passion for sharing resources and inspiration with the creative community.
No, AI art or so-called “AI artists” are not allowed in the directory. Only real surface pattern designers are welcome here. Text written by AI tools is not allowed either.
