Brian Miller Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 How would you describe the mannerisms that Jony Ives uses when he appears in the Apple videos such as the one below? I ask because we hired a new UX guy at our company who talks just like him, using the same mannerisms. Are all UX people like Jony Ives? http://youtu.be/xNsGNlDb6xY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Miller Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 No, my CEO knew him from 20 years ago and he was like this back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OOOOOOOO Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I'm a lead UX/UI designer and I can assure you, we're not all like that :p That said, I am English and I do talk similar accent wise, but that's about it :D He is an inspirational designer though. Him and his team. You have to look beyond the things most people would do when it comes to designing an interface. It's not just about the look but far deeper than that. I constantly learn from new design developments and I constantly toy with the implementation of what I would say is good design. I work from 10:30am through til maybe 2 or 3am most days because my work consumes much of my existence. I wouldn't have it any other way, I love what I do.

Glassed Silver Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 No, not everyone is like him mannerism-wise. And slightly off topic: I love that man. Glassed Silver:mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Growled Member Posted December 2, 2012 Member Share Posted December 2, 2012 I agree, for everything thing that he designed, and will be designing! This kind of love is what gives Apple their cultist label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteinbqat Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 This kind of love is what gives Apple their cultist label. Probably, but what people think of Apple is not really my business. I can appraise the work of Ive because he really does a great job at designing. That people turn Apple into a cult, that is not my problem. I give credits where it is due, and critic when necessary.

Probably, but what people think of Apple is not really my business. I can appraise the work of Ive because he really does a great job at designing. That people turn Apple into a cult, that is not my problem. I give credits where it is due, and critic when necessary. This. Don't bother with haters, overly distancing behavior and such things. Think for yourself and if you think that someone is inspiring you, then let him. Glassed Silver:mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
