Apple's page design since 1996



Even before "Apple's official page, a ten-year transition"Although I posted it as an article, there are people saving it every time the top page is refreshed at a finer interval than that, and that image is released on Flickr. There are also images in 1997 when the top page was rewritten by someone only for several hours.

Browsing is from the following. There are many nostalgic things. It can be used as reference material when designing.

The top page when I was hacked and rewritten in 1997 is here.

On July 18, 2005, the number of downloads from the iTunes Music Store exceeded 500 million songs. Ten years ago it seems like a lie that Apple was going to be crushed in this way as it was loud.

In 2007, iPhone released. In Japan, it turned out that deployment is hopeless due to problems of communication carrier standards.

If you look at this way, you can see that the design gradually turns into a modern day, but in a few years this design will also be old, becoming a different design concept I guess.
