Jonathan Ive, senior vice-president of design at Apple whose innovations include the iPod and iMac.

As senior vice-president of design at Apple, Jonathan Ive has combined what he describes as “fanatical care beyond the obvious stuff” with relentless experiments into new tools, materials and production processes, to design such ground-breaking products as the iMAC, iBook, the PowerBook G4 and the iPod MP3 player. He won the Design Museum's first Designer of the Year prize for the 2002 iMac and iPod.

Born in London in 1967, Ive studied art and design at Newcastle Polytechnic before co-founding Tangerine, a design consultancy where he developed everything from power tools to televisions. In 1992, one of his clients – Apple – offered him a job at its headquarters in Cupertino, California. Working closesly with Apple’s co-founder, Steve Jobs, Ive developed the iMac. As well as selling more than 2m units in its first year, the iMac transformed product design by introducing colour and light to the drab world of computing where, until its arrival, new products were encased in opaque grey or beige plastic.

Ive and his close-knit team of designers at Apple have since applied the same lateral thinking and passionate attention to detail to the development of equally innovative new products such as the Cube, the iPod and the PowerBook G4, the world’s lightest and slimmest 17 inch laptop, and the ultra-slim iMac G5.

Apple Inc.

The very first Apple Computer logo, drawn by Ronald Gerald Wayne*, depicts Isaac Newton under an apple tree.

*Ronald Gerald Wayne (born 1934) is the often forgotten "third founder" of Apple Computer (in addition to Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak). He illustrated the first Apple logo and wrote the Apple I manual. While at Apple he also wrote their partnership agreement.

Wayne worked with Jobs and Wozniak at Atari before founding Apple Computer in 1976. He was given a 10% stake in Apple, but soon lost faith in the company and sold his stock for $800 only a couple of months after Apple started and made their first shipment.

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak ("the two Steves") had been friends for some time, having met in 1971, when their mutual friend, Bill Fernandez, introduced 21-year-old Wozniak to 16-year-old Jobs. Jobs managed to interest Wozniak in assembling a machine and selling it.
