Like most designers, Ive enjoyed analyzing 1 the philosophy and the step-by-step thinking that went into a particular design. 和大多数设计师一样，艾弗喜欢分析某个特定设计背后的理念以及如何一步步地构思出这个设计。
For Jobs, the process was more intuitive. 对于乔布斯来说，他的判断更注重直觉。
He would point to models and sketches 2 he liked and dump on the ones he didn't. 他会明确指出自己喜欢的模型和草图，放弃那些不喜欢的。

Ive was a fan of the German industrial designer Dieter Rams 3, who worked for the electronics firm Braun. 艾弗的偶像是为博朗电器公司工作的德国工业设计大师迪特尔·拉姆斯。
Rams preached the gospel of "Less but better," Weniger aber besser, 拉姆斯崇尚的设计理念是“少而优”。
and likewise Jobs and Ive wrestled 4 with each new design to see how much they could simplify it. 同样，乔布斯和艾弗也在为如何能让每一个新设计变得简洁而绞尽脑汁。

Jobs had aimed for the simplicity that comes from conquering complexities 6, not ignoring them. 乔布斯就以追求简洁为目标。追求简洁不是要忽视复杂性，而是要化繁为简。
