5 names every graphic designer should know
                     



If you're embarking on a career in graphic design – or just interested in creating some great layouts – there are some designers that you positively need to know about.
These are the designers that have changed the way graphic design is seen in the contemporary world; the mavericks; the thinkers; those who have made a difference.
We've focused on just five names, but who do you think we should add to the list? Let us know in the comments at the bottom of the post.
01.  Milton Glaser
Milton Glaser is one of the world's most celebrated graphic designers. His most famous work is undoubtedly the logo he designed for New York to promote tourism in the city in 1977 (below). Much copied, much used and much adored, the 'I love New York' logo is set in American Typewriter, a rounded slab serif.

02. Stefan Sagmeister
Born in Austria, New York-based graphic designer and typographer Stefan Sagmeister has had somewhat of a resurgence in the last year – mainly due to Sagmeister Inc becoming Sagmeister & Walsh after he made talented young designer Jessica Walsh partner. Announcing himself on the scene 20 years ago with a naked shot, the pair recently did the same thing, and it did the PR job. But there's more to Sagmeister than nudity: his often conceptual, thought-provoking work has turned just as many heads as his PR: particularly his 'cutting' work for AIGA and his incredible album artwork for Lou Reed.
03.  David Carson
As art director of music and lifestyle magazine Ray Gun, David Carson became the most influential graphic designer of the 1990s. His unconventional grunge typography style was a new era in design – something completely different to what had been before. An example of his genius? Using the Dingbat symbol font for what he thought a dull interview with Bryan Ferry.

04.  Neville Brody English designer, typographer and art director Neville Brody shot to fame with his incredible art direction of cult UK magazine The Face between 1981 and 1986. He's also well known for art-directing Arena magazine (1987-1990) and designing record covers for artists such as Cabaret Voltaire and Depeche Mode.

05.  Paul Rand Paul Rand was an American art director and graphic designer, best known for his corporate logo designs, including the logos for IBM, UPS, Enron, Morningstar, Inc., Westinghouse, ABC, and NeXT
