More quotes by Jonathan Ive
The goal of Apple is not to make money but to make really nice products, really great products.
Jonathan Ive
Being superficially different is the goal of so many of the products we see... rather than trying to innovate and genuinely taking the time, investing the resources and caring enough to try and make something better.
Jonathan Ive
I am keenly aware that I benefit from a wonderful tradition in the UK of designing and making.
Jonathan Ive
The more I learnt about this cheeky - almost rebellious - company, the more it appealed to me, as it unapologetically pointed to an alternative in a complacent and creatively bankrupt industry. Apple stood for something and had reason for being that wasn't just about making money.
Jonathan Ive

Designing and developing anything of consequence is incredibly challenging.
Jonathan Ive
Really great design is hard. Good is the enemy of great.
Jonathan Ive
The quest for simplicity has to pervade every part of the process. It really is fundamental.
Jonathan Ive
It's very easy to make something that is new. So we are trying to make things that are better.
Jonathan Ive
We don't do focus groups - that is the job of the designer.
Jonathan Ive
To do something innovative means that you reject reason.
Jonathan Ive
Apple's goal isn't to make money. Our goal is to design and develop and bring to market good products.
Jonathan Ive
True simplicity is, well, you just keep on going and going until you get to the point where you go... Yeah, well, of course.
Jonathan Ive
There are a thousand no's for every yes.
Jonathan Ive
There's no learning without trying lots of ideas and failing lots of times.
Jonathan Ive
There's an applied style of being minimal and simple, and then there's real simplicity. This looks simple, because it really is.
Jonathan Ive
When you're trying to solve a problem on a new product type, you become completely focused on problems that seem a number of steps removed from the main product. That problem solving can appear a little abstract, and it is easy to lose sight of the product.
