Construction is well underway on Apple Campus 2, Apple's planned new Cupertino headquarters. No expense is being spared on the futuristic building, nicknamed the "spaceship" and costing an estimated $5 billion. Due to be completed at the end of 2016, it will accommodate 12,000 employees and features a $161 million auditorium, as well as a vast leafy green space at the centre of the site.
Every piece of this building is engineered. In other words, everything has been looked at and vetted and measured and mocked up, from concrete to joints to rebar placements. Stuff you wouldn't even see when the building's done,
The site, shaped like an O, is split into nine "wedges," and Apple employees are assigned to each "specific geographic location." Employees from Foster + Partners, the architectural firm behind Apple Campus 2, are also on-site to supervise.

The project is so extensive that Apple Campus2 has effectively "raised the bar for construction
standards.
