Apple’s ‘spaceship’ takes shape: Aerial footage reveals more about Campus 2

“It is not the first aerial imagery of the spaceship, but it does reveal how the site is progressing since drone footage captured the foundations being laid in October last year,” Victoria Woollaston reports for The Daily Mail.

“The footage was captured by by helicopter firm Skycore using a 5K Red Epic Dragon from the Skycore Camera Ship fitted with a 1800mm lens,” Woollaston reports. “Covering 175 acres, the company’s futuristic ‘Campus 2’ headquarters will be a mile in circumference when it’s complete in 2016.”

“During a recent interview chief architect Sir Norman Foster gave an additional insight into how Apple’s ‘spaceship’ will be built – as well as the inspiration behind its circular and ‘organic’ design,” Woollaston reports. “This includes cars being ‘banished and buried’ in underground car parks, tarmac being replaced by greenery and windows that stretch the full height of the four-storey main building that slide open.”
