More quotes by Jonathan Ive
What I love about the creative process, and this may sound naive, but it is this idea that one day there is no idea, and no solution, but the next day there is an idea. I find that incredibly exciting and conceptually actually remarkable.
Jonathan Ive
I figured out some basic stuff: that form and colour defines your perception of the nature of an object, whether or not it is intended to.
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
What we don't include is as important as what we do include.
Jonathan Ive
We're very genuinely designing the best products that we can for people.
Jonathan Ive
Simplicity is not the absence of clutter, that's a consequence of simplicity. Simplicity is somehow essentially describing the purpose and place of an object and product. The absence of clutter is just a clutter-free product. That's not simple.
Jonathan Ive
Making the solution seem so completely inevitable and obvious, so uncontrived and natural - it's so hard!
Jonathan Ive
If you are truly innovating, you don't have a prototype you can refer to.
Jonathan Ive
The nature of having ideas and creativity is incredibly inspiring.
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
Apple stood for something and had a reason for being that wasn't just about making money.
Jonathan Ive
Really great design is hard. Good is the enemy of great. Competent design is not too much of a stretch. But if you are trying to do something new, you have challenges on so many axes.
Jonathan Ive
There's no other product that changes function like the computer.
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
I think it’s a wonderful view that care was important – but I think you can make a one-off and not care and you can make a million of something and care. Whether you really care or not is not driven by how many of the products you’re going to make.
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
The quest for simplicity has to pervade every part of the process. It really is fundamental.
Jonathan Ive
I left London in 1992, but I'm there 3-4 times a year, and love visiting.
Jonathan Ive
As consumers we are incredibly discerning, we sense where has been great care in the design, and when there is cynicism and greed.
Jonathan Ive
Different and new is relatively easy. Doing something thats genuinely better is very hard.
