We rarely see the internal celebrations and recognition that Apple does with its employees. Now we have the opportunity to see one of them up close, thanks to one of the latest products launched by the company. To mark the launch of the AirTag, Apple has recognized the work of its six original designers with this small award.
A frame with six signed AirTags (and a gift one)
In a small white frame and protected by glass, Apple has placed six AirTags around a seventh. While the former show their white face, the one in the center shows his characteristic steel face. Surrounding this layout are the names of the six AirTag designers.
Arian Behzadi, Christine Franco, Corey Wang, Frank de Jong, Marcel van Os and Nicole Ryan they are Apple’s product designers who are commemorated in this frame. Each of the six designers signs one of the AirTags found inside. This photo comes from a post posted on LinkedIn by one of the designers, now removed from his profile.

Like other companies, Apple also commemorates other milestones internally. As an example, when an employee exceeds five years in the company he also receives a plaque with his name on it. Given the high turnover in a high-tech company, overcoming several years in it is quite an achievement.
Of course, it is quite remarkable that the company has created this framework for six designers responsible for its creation. Among them we find industrial designers, interface designers and other elements that make up this location beacon.
