Jony Ive forms multi-year partnership with Airbnb — Apple World Today

Airbnb is an American vacation rental online marketplace company based in San Francisco, California. It offers arrangement for lodging. It doesn’t own any of the real estate listings; it acts as a broker, receiving commissions from each booking.

In June 2019 Apple announced that Ive was departing the company as an employee to form an independent design company called LoveFrom that will count Apple among its clients. While he pursues personal projects, Ive and his new company will reportedly continue to work closely and on a range of projects with Apple, CEO Tim Cook said.
