Thanks Steve!

Design

Steve Jobs has been an incredible influential individual to our lives, and especially to our jobs. Thanks to his vision and his drive he made people love, and be proud of, something that before was grey and hidden under our desks.
As designers we should be very grateful for having witnessed such a remarkable story which ultimately made our job more exciting.

The industry, us included, will miss you. Good bye Steve!
