In architecture, it's pretty difficult to reach that iconic status of:-

(i) becoming a recognised "name" architect,
(ii) having a recognized style that is more than just redesigning the same building again and again
(iii) deserving your fame with good, attractive, functional buildings

I don't follow the architectural press enough to know who, in the industry, is in fashion or not, but I have noticed the Swiss combo of Herzog & deMeuron. They may not tick all three items on the list above, but they've come up with some cool designs.
