11. The United States at this time was thus ripe for the development of the industrial design profession. In fact, the U.S. Patent Office recognized the term industrial designer in 1913, and, as in Europe, organizations were formed to unite the visual arts professionals who helped create consumer products and environments. The American Union of Decorative Artists and Craftsmen (founded in 1927), for instance, was followed by the American Designers Institute (1938) and the Society of Industrial Designers (1944), all of which eventually merged to form the Industrial Designers Society of America (1965).

13. Moreover, department stores and direct-mail merchants, including Montgomery Wardand Sears, Roebuck and Company, created corporate design departments to control the look of their merchandise. Montgomery Ward was probably the first store in the United States to do so (1934), hiring design educator Ann Swainson to be their first woman executive and architect Dave Chapman to be the head of product planning. Sears followed soon afterward, scooping the competition by hiring noted German Modernist architect Karl Schneider, a Gropius and Behrens protégé, to design furniture and furnishings for the company’s line (1938–45). In 1926 Walter Paepcke founded the Container Corporation of America, and in 1936 he hired Egbert Jacobson to establish a consistent design identity for its products and advertising, a development that had far-reaching consequences in the American graphic designand advertising worlds Macy's filled almost the entire blockin 1931, and cemented its positionas the world's largest store http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iy0jFNzBIcw
