Apple hires NYT mag designer as creative director

New York Times Magazine design director Arem Duplessis has been hired by Apple as a creative director. Duplessis will apparently be involved in Apple’s internal marketing team, though it’s likely that he could contribute in other ways. In a 2011 interview with Mediabistro, Duplessis said his dream project would be to “design a revolutionary iPad app that would make the world wonderful and happy” before changing his answer.
