Kazumasa Nagai (in Japanese: 永井 一正, Nagai Kazumasa; Ōsaka, April 20, 1929) is a Japanese printmaker and graphic designer.

He co-founded the Nippon Design Center (1960), where he was president until 2001.

Although his first works were abstract at the beginning, he changed for handmade designs of animals and plants in the 1980s.

In 1964, he took part in documenta III, in Kassel.
