Who are the Apple designers taking over Jony Ive's duties?
Apple Inc.'s Jony Ive was promoted to the newly created position of chief design officer, with plans to hand off his daily managerial duties to two "longtime collaborators," the company said Monday.
Ive played a starring role in such Apple product successes as the iMac, iPod, iPhone and iPad. He's side-stepped the public spotlight to a degree that belies his role in the company. You often hear his velvety British voice during an Apple launch event, but rarely see him live, onstage.
Those collaborators taking over his managerial responsibilities are no more high-profile, though they're well-known in the design world. That might start to change — in part due to the lengthy column that broke Ive's advancement, which was penned by comedian and writer Stephen Fry for The (U.K.) Telegraph.
