Wall Street Journal Magazine profiled Jony Ive as its 2022 Design Innovator.
This write-up doesn’t detail exactly what we should expect from his post-Apple design firm LoveFrom, but it does dive into his background, as well as his history with Apple and Steve Jobs.
...exactly 12 years after Steve Jobs had walked out the door to launch NeXT Inc., Jobs returned as CEO of Apple.
Ive, then 30, assumed Jobs would hire a more renowned designer to replace him, but something unexpected happened at their first meeting. “I clicked with Steve in a way that I had never before done with someone and never have since,” says Ive.
