The 10 Must-Follow Instagrams for Design Lovers

In case you hadn’t heard, it’s our Insta-versary: the @1stdibs account is officially 50,000 strong! We’re humbled, flattered and grateful to have such a loyal (and opinionated!) following. The relentless pursuit of #envygrams does not, however, happen in a vacuum. Our feed is full of remarkably creative, superlatively beautiful, and only-lightly-filtered images. Thus in honor of our gram milestone, we’ve rounded up our 10 go-to accounts for whenever we’re craving a bit of eye candy.

Author and blogger Will Taylor (@brightbazaar) is your best bet if you need a mood-lifter — his hyper-color images just make us smile.

The grams on Sarah Sherman Samuel’s account (@sarahshermansamuel) have the same laid-back, chilled-out vibe as her So Cal lifestyle blog, Smitten Studio.

You’ll find creamily-lit interiors, finely-wrought detail shots and lots of Cavalier King Charles spaniels on Hanna Seabrook’s (@gadabout) feed.
