Apple Provides Beautiful Renderings for 'Spaceship' Campus

One word: Scientology

Another design Apple steals and calls their own. Jacque Fresco published these same designs decades ago. http://www.thevenusproject.com/
And still the Apple version looks like a cheap knock off.

Someone already posted that this was posted a while ago and asked why it was news today... so why are you doing that same thing a few comments later?

Apple again shows lack of respect for the environment. First by producing devices with no user replaceable parts, now by artificially enclosing a park and all animals in it in a grotesque metal nightmare that makes Apple's locked down coffin-phones look like a paradise by comparison. When is Apple going to grow up and respect nature? Apple has to realize that design should contribute to environmental sustainability, not land squarely against it.

I have no love for apple, but did you miss the part where the area where they are building this is basically a former HP industrial complex?

LOL - pictures of a freaking Apple campus generate two pages worth of comments. Based on the hits Apple related articles generate I'm surprised Tom's hasn't gone all Apple.

Seriously. If they didn't build this, there'd just be an office park. As is, at least it's good looking and there are some trees.

Will the shiny glass courtyard walls concentrate sunshine into warm spots? (Mental image: a red-uniformed crewman walks into the courtyard and gets vaporized.

Scorpio: "Here Homer, hang my coat on the wall"
*Homer looks around confused*
Scorpio: "Ha, only kidding! There are no walls! In fact, I didn't even give you my coat!"

i bet 10 bucks its going to be the hipster mecca where all i sheep are required to make a trip at least once a year and buy expensive crap.

Please ban all the Apple a haters, it really is getting childish at this point.

[citation][nom]JohnnyLucky[/nom]Geez! That an awful lot of glass walls.[/citation]

They don't have the patent for windows...

But seriously, it looks awesome compared to the cramped cubicle in which I work

This is few months old "news".

Caging a green space inside that metal nightmare is so Apple.
