Cupertino Releases New Renderings of 'Apple Campus 2'
The city of Cupertino, California has released more details about Apple's proposed new campus, the donut-shaped glass office expected to sit on nearly 150 acres of land just east of the company's current headquarters at 1 Infinite Loop. And with this information comes pretty new artistic renderings that highlight exactly what "Apple Campus 2" could look like come its expected 2015 completion date.
In total, Apple's new four-story, curved-glass headquarters–a "spaceship," as described by CEO Steve Jobs–is expected to take up approximately 2.8 million square feet of space. It'll hold around 13,000 people in total and include room for an underground, 1,000-seat auditorium, around 300,000 square feet of above-ground and underground research facilities, and an underground parking structure. Apple will also use an on-site power plant to fuel the building in an attempt to limit the new campus's reliance on the electric grid.
