From 2015-2021 graphic designer DHK created 120 different political button designs celebrating progressive people and causes. These ranged from Bernie Sanders, Greta Thunberg and AOC to The Green New Deal, Black Lives Matter and Medicare For All. The buttons were hand-stamped in small batches at a home studio in Los Angeles and then distributed across the United States in packs of 2 or more to encourage the recipients to share the progressive messages with friends and family. This "Buttons for the People" project ventured to integrate minimalist contemporary design with modern politics in order to spread support for the progress cause from the grassroots level.
