Jony Ive designs a unique and playful Red Nose for UK-based charity [Comic Relief](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comic-factory) and its Red Nose Day. The former [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-pay-donations) designer came up with the design itself as it is a model that takes a flat 'C' shape that turns into a honeycomb paper sphere.

It is a large part of the charity's annual broadcast that is to take place on March 17th that will be across multiple [BBC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/potluck-club) channels. In a press release, the charity calls the nose "the most dramatic makeover since [the Red Nose] debut in 1988." It has touches that are true to the designer, including the construction which is notably made from plant-based materials and comes with a small case for when it is folded flat.
