Kory Westerhold, a former designer at Apple, has teamed up with Yahoo's design director, Aaron Martin, to create a mobile bible perfect for the modern reader. This may not be the first time a designer has made an effort to rethink the religious texts, but the mobile bible is certainly one of the more beautiful interpretations thus far.
Dubbed NeuBible,' the mobile bible app is gorgeous for one main reason: it was designed with reading in mind. Westerhold shares this revelation, "After banging my head against a wall a few times, it hit me: This is just a reading experience. I set the content aside for a while, and just tried to create the most beautiful reading experience that I could." The result is amazing.
