The production designer for Dr. No was Ken Adam.
It was innovative and changed the field.
He also did a dozen later Bond films.
One of my favorite films: The Ipcress File (1965)  he did.
And the funniest film of all time - funnier than Fish named Wanda he did:
Addams Family Values (1993)
He won an Oscar for Kubrick's on Barry Lyndon.

And he got me thinking Dr. NO was in black and white.
I think that's a compliment.
