Sir Jony Ive redesigns the Comic Relief Red Nose as Gethin gets dancing

rnd

Apple’s former Chief Designer has come up with a “magically transforming Red Nose” as part of this year’s Comic Relief.

The charity, which has been based in Salford since 2021, has released more details about this March’s event, including a 24 Hour dance challenge by Morning Live’s Gethin Jones.

Sir Jony Ive’s new design is described as a “Red Nose like no other”. Made almost entirely from plant-based materials, it starts as a flat crescent and springs into a honeycomb-paper sphere.

“We’ve grown up with Comic Relief and are proud to support their remarkable work,” explained Ive.

“This new and seemingly simple Red Nose has been a fabulously complex little object to design and make and has involved our entire team. We hope it brings a little moment of joy to everyone who wears one.”
