Dieter Rams on The Culture Show

 

When I first came across this video it was a history lesson. Learning how much Dieter Rams has influenced the product design of apple was great. One of the many things that I respected that Dieter said when the interviewer said “they have stolen your design” then Dieter Said “no its a compliment”.

The 606 is a shelf that I would not mind to have being an avid reader. I do love the aspect of designing furniture that will last your whole life.

Apple Product Design

If you have no clue who Jonathan Ive is or Jony Ive as some people call him he is responsible for how the apple products are designed and how they look. When I listened to the Steve Jobs Biography audiobook I learned that Jony Ive is just as much of a design nut as Steve Jobs was. If you have or if you’ve ever held an iPhone 4 you’d notice the little gaps on the side of the phone. The reason for that is because of the antenna and if its covered you can expect to have dropped calls and etc. The iPhone 3 would drop calls constantly because it did not have the gaps the 4 does.

Whats your favorite apple product or Who’s your favorite product designer?
