How do you capture the present state of design in one single chart, with only 50 names? You don't. But, inspired by the effort of those 50, we gave it a shot in Fast Company's 2011 design issue.
In Fast Company's 2011 design issue, we focused on American design: What it means, where it stands, and where it's going.

It would have enraged a few people, enlightened a few more, and that's it. But instead, we wanted to gave readers a bit more insight into what "design" actually means today. Say it with me now: Infographics, to the rescue!
