Apple has confirmed a significant change in its design team with the departure of Alan Dye, who will join Meta as Chief Design Officer at the end of December. Dye, who joined Apple in 2006 and contributed to major interface updates including iOS 7, will now lead a new design studio at Meta.

Meta announced that Dye will work under Chief Technology Officer Andrew Bosworth. The studio will integrate hardware, software, and AI teams, focusing on products such as Meta’s headsets and AI-driven tools. The team includes Jason Rubin overseeing the metaverse design, Pete Bristol guiding the industrial design group, and other key figures like former Apple designer Billy Sorrentino and Meta design lead Joshua To.

Meta intends to leverage Dye’s expertise to enhance its product offerings, including future iterations of the Meta Ray Ban Display and the Neural Band accessory. Dye's arrival coincides with ongoing developments in mixed reality devices by both Meta and Apple, potentially intensifying competition.

In response to Dye’s departure, Apple plans to appoint Stephen Lemay, a veteran designer with over 25 years at the company, to lead the design team. Lemay has been instrumental in shaping Apple’s major interfaces since 1999. Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, emphasized the centrality of design in the company's operations and expressed confidence in Lemay's leadership.

As Meta establishes its new design studio, the focus will be on integrating design, fashion, and technology. The initiative aims to innovate with intelligence as a key design element, striving for user-centered experiences in future Meta products.
