Yes. Vignelli associates (NY Subway), Paul Rand's work, Chermayeff & Geismar, Adrian Frutiger (Typography), Josef Muller Brockman (Graphic Design), Dieter Rams (Industrial Design), and more recently - Pentagram (Michael Beirut), Interbrand for corporate design. I am sure I am forgetting many many great designers.
I've discovered many American designers that had a profound impact on the image of American design. I found a list of 60 designers in "Moderns: Midcentury American Graphic Design" [1]. This is a phenomenal gold mine of a book which unfortunately has only 1 review.

- lostlogin 8y agoThank you. I like the below book, though the politics might put many off. Many of the artists are unknown and/or were executed. It would have been a good exhibition to see at the Tate Modern. https://shop.tate.org.uk/signed-russian-revolutionary-posters/13422.html https://shop.tate.org.uk/signed-russian-revolutionary-poster...
