WHAT HAS STEVE JOBS DONE FOR DESIGN?
We now know that design matters, design is profitable and good design  is what people want.  Apple and Steve Jobs have proven that good  product design creates a sense of anticipation, emotion and love with  customers that can be reached in no other way.
The design community as a whole owes a lot to Steve  Jobs. As Apple created and marketed the “value of design” in their  products, and were successful at it, other companies started to notice.  Other companies started to recognize the value of good design and invest  in it by investing in designers. This helped the entire ecosystem of  designers move up the ladder and presence of mind in companies everywhere.
Apple really is the best example of how to put design at the  forefront of  a company by elevating designers as leaders within the  company. Unlike other companies, at Apple, design seemed to have a place  in the boardroom. Product designers and marketers established Apple’s  products as  easy, beautiful and simple to use and the masses fell in  love. Steve and his people paid attention  to the product design  details, that in the end, were the difference between Apple and  everyone else in the industry.
My hat (if I had one) goes off to Steve Jobs for his thankful  contribution to the design industry and look forward to what he will do next. Now the masses understand what good  design is and continue to ask for it.
