Apple's Spaceship-like Headquarters to be Shrouded by Trees
Apple likes to cloak its new products in mystery, so it seems fitting that visitors to its new energy-efficient headquarters won't be able to see much of the building from the road.
New drawings show the landscaping at the Cupertino, California campus will be extensive -- the spaceship-like building will be entirely surrounded by a thick layer of trees, mostly apricot. There also will be jogging paths and walking trails.
Apple also plans to power the headquarters with its own energy center that will run mostly off the grid. Groundbreaking for the new headquarters is planned for later this year, with completion scheduled for 2015.
