My 19 Coffee Mug Designs That Look Like Famous People
12Kviews
Hi! I’m Sonelle, a designer and illustrator from Durban, South Africa. I’m inspired by pop culture and the many symbols and icons in our day-to-day lives. For me, the design should enhance the mundane, and what could be more ordinary than something most of us hold in our hands every day - the humble coffee mug? I’ve combined form, function, and a good dose of crazy to bring these to life.
Mugshots is an ongoing project that I plan on adding to as I go. I hope you like them! If you want to see more of my work, follow me on Behance or find me on Instagram. I might create a custom mugshot just for you!

You should make a Bob Ross one!
Yes. Maybe with painted bushes for hair and/or with happy little trees
Agreed, and it should have the frase. There are no mistakes, only happy accidents! I'd buy that! Well probably not, but I'd really really like it.
I'm totally making more!! And will include a Bob Ross for sure, thanks for the suggestion! Haha happy little trees, man i love him...
Don't forget Freddie Mercury, ok? Also, do Stan Lee.
I have a question though, are these paintings 'mugshots' or will there be actual mugs made? I didn't quite understand that part. Really liked the Mugshots!
Thanks! No they're all conceptual illustrations :) i would love to make these if i could, maybe i should get a 3D printer!
You should make a Queen Elizabeth one, but it should be a teacup.
