History of Apple Designer Jonathan Ive

Today we’re going to explore the history of Jonathan Ive. Where he came from, how he got involved in product design, some of his career achievements, and how he ended up as Chief Design Officer of Apple, the most valuable company in the world.

So Jonathan Ive is a legendary designer who was responsible for the look of some of the most iconic products like the iPod, iPhone, iPad, and iMac. And although you may be very familiar with the products he’s designed, you probably aren’t too familiar with the man himself, since he’s known to be a private person who avoids media attention. But in this video we’ll cover what we do know about Jonathan Ive, starting with his early years in the town of Chingford, London.

I went to school with Jonathan and knew him and his family very well. If anyone deserves success it's him; a very clever and hard working kid, and also a very nice guy.

He will definitely be missed when he’s gone, that’s for sure.

I remember when he won a Blue Peter Badge (which for a long time was a big deal here in the UK) and he described it as one of the best and important things he ever got. Kinda sweet really.

man, what would I give to get the opportunity to study automotive design anywhere near as good as that university in London. my country doesn't even have a programme like that in any universities.

The only reason I own an iPhone, iPad & Mac it’s because of this guy. The way he talks on those introductory videos makes me wanna buy anything he’s selling. With a voice like that, I would literally buy anything this guy sells 😍
