Nestled in a lush olive grove, the Visitor Center along Tantau Avenue designed by Foster + Partners carries, in essence, the same design language and precision detailing as that of Apple Park.The center serves as an exclusive public gateway to Apple’s headquarters. The building appears to be a transparent envelop sitting underneath a thin floating carbon-fiber roof. The building volume is dematerialized due to full height glazing. The softly-lit timber creates warm and inviting interiors. The first thing to greet the eye is a large scale model of Apple Park, which has been shaped and finished by the machines that create the signature Apple products. The expansive roof terrace provides spectacular views of Apple Park.“The idea was to create a delicate pavilion where visitors can enjoy the same material palette and meticulous detailing seen in the Ring Building in a relaxed setting, against the backdrop of Apple Park,” says Stefan Behling, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners. For instance, the staircase is clad with the same quartz stone as the main building and the café’s countertop is made with the same marble as the main restaurant.For more details, visit: https://www.fosterandpartners.com/Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek at the building.
