A bold statement piece that is simultaneously calming due to the reductive image and monochromatic color scheme. Ivan Chermayeff is considered one of the best American graphic designers and was a legend of graphic design. He passed away in 2017 and his obituary can be found in The New York Times. Chermayeff designed posters and created museum displays, and streamlined fussy corporate logos into sleek corporate designs. He created some of the most recognizable corporate logos for companies including Armani, Barneys, Hearst, MoMA (Museum of Modern Art), National Geographic, NBC (National Broadcasting Company), PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) and others. His posters are great examples of his ability to present information in a manner that is both captivating and concise. This great example will work well with any decor, contemporary or traditional. less
