Boris Benko
Founder / Creative Director
Boris Benko is an award-winning graphic designer, visual journalist, and multidisciplinary visual artist from Zagreb, Croatia. With over 20 years of professional experience, he is the founder and creative director behind multiple creative ventures, including Graphonaut (an infographic-driven media website and digital magazine), Infographic Box (a studio specializing in infographics, data visualization, and visual storytelling), and Mint Onion (a full-service digital creative agency). Through these platforms, he develops original creative concepts, leading both client and editorial projects that combine design, strategy, and storytelling.
Boris has built a career at the intersection of journalism, design, and data. He spent over a decade working in newspapers and magazines, where he honed his skills in editorial design and daily infographic production, shaping hundreds of stories for print and digital audiences. This “hard drill” in newsrooms gave him an extraordinary ability to distill complex information into clear, visually compelling narratives. Today, he brings that background to international projects, crafting visual stories that engage audiences, support marketing strategies, and highlight critical insights.
Through Infographic Box, together with his creative team, Boris has designed more than 1,000 infographics for global brands, organizations, media outlets, and creative agencies. Over the years, he has worked with dozens of clients from the Fortune Global 500 list, including companies such as Samsung, Ford Motor, IBM, Dell, Hitachi, AmerisourceBergen, Abbott, RedBull, and many more, as well as international organizations such as UNICEF, CARE, and the International Olympic Committee. His work spans static, animated, interactive, and editorial formats, often designed for global distribution and viral reach. His infographics have also been published in books, magazines, and online portals dedicated to the art of infographics, extending their visibility and impact.
Boris’s projects have been recognized with numerous industry honors. In 2017, Malwarebytes received the Content Marketing Award (Best Infographic, Distribution Category) for the project “The Global Impact of Ransomware on Businesses,” to which Boris contributed as the infographic designer. Earlier, as part of the Cricket Design Works creative team, where he contributed as an associate illustrator/designer, the agency won a Gold Addy Award in Advertising for the Arts & Sciences (Collateral, Brochures / Sales Kit category) for its work on a Smithsonian Science Education Center brochure. These achievements highlight his ability to merge creativity with strategic communication, delivering both artistic value and measurable impact.
He holds a university diploma in graphic design from the Faculty of Graphic Arts in Zagreb. As a professional artist, Boris has also been a member of ULUPUH (Croatian Association of Applied Arts) since 2004 and the HZSU (Croatian Freelance Artists’ Association) since 2007, which operates under the authority of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia.
Beyond his design practice, Boris is also an award-winning fine art photographer and a TEDx speaker, exploring themes of identity, alienation, and the hidden layers of everyday life through his art. He continues to develop his personal artistic projects alongside his client work, blending conceptual thinking with technical precision. At Graphonaut, Boris brings all of these experiences together to create a unique media platform dedicated to infographics, data visualization, and visual storytelling. Under his creative direction, Graphonaut publishes static, animated, interactive, and micro-content infographics on a wide range of topics—offering audiences around the world a new way to explore ideas and information.
Through his ventures, Boris has become a trusted partner to digital marketing specialists, creative directors, agencies, CEOs, startups, and organizations who seek to communicate their messages in powerful, visual ways. Whether through editorial projects, brand campaigns, or interactive infographics, he helps clients turn information into stories that attract attention, spark curiosity, and inspire action.
