Thank You Steve
It still hurts today. I didn’t get a good night of sleep. I cannot really describe how I feel, but it’s like losing a father, a father figure. It’s weird because I didn’t know him personally, but the image I had of him was enough to put the lump in my throat and make me burst into tears by moment.
Steve was a great human being and a passionate man. If it was not for him, his attention to details (like great typography in his inventions), I would not be what I am today. I learned graphic design by myself on a Macintosh SE in the college library. Although my path has slightly changed over the years, I never stop being passionate about graphic design and went back to it first as web designer and later as an Interaction designer about 16 years ago.
My admiration to his genius, his achievements, the industries he has changed for ever and his entire legacy is incommensurable.
Thank You Steve.
