For several years, <strong>iLounge</strong> has profiled the top industrial and interface designers in the Apple development community, looking for leaders in accessories and apps. We’ve selected six more winners for 2011. It’s easy to become an Apple developer these days: a $99 annual fee licenses one person or an entire company to create iOS or Mac software, enabling startups or huge corporations to start churning out apps in days. Selling Apple accessories is nearly as simple: find some cheap plastic shells in China, ink a brand name on them, and set up an online shop. It’s been done. Thousands of people now “create” very similar Apple add-ons and apps. The pool is bigger than ever, and filled with tons of me-too products. iDesign focuses on game-changers - companies that stand out from the rest thanks to spectacular industrial or interface design. Yes, anyone can make accessories, but there are few truly elegant products. Similarly, one person can code an app in days, but it’s the extra polish that makes truly great software stand out from hundreds of thousands of other titles. The accessory developers we’ve chosen this year are pioneers, either complementing or going beyond Apple’s industrial designs with popular, eyecatching add-ons. Some of their products are more conventional than others, but it’s obvious that every curve and every line was thought through, generally for the end user’s benefit. The two featured software developers represent different ends of the spectrum. One creates inexpensive but addictive and highly stylized games, while the other produces premium productivity apps that previously demanded powerful computers. Both have mastered Apple’s touchscreens, making mice and joypads feel unnecessary. They’ve each helped to define what iOS devices can do. Inside, you’ll find six developer profiles produced independently by <strong>iLounge</strong>’s editors, alongside six illuminating interviews with key company executives and designers. Enjoy.
