Apple’s new headquarters design comprises 2.8 million square feet of office buildings. Official details are still scarce, though the application and images such as the one above have been posted on the City of Cupertino’s website. This week, New Yorker architecture critic, Paul Goldberger, weighs in, and he’s not exactly delighted at the plans: 

However elegant the headquarters might turn out to be, it will still be a huge suburban office complex, reinforcing car culture at a time when that seems increasingly less tenable. I suppose Apple has solved enough problems over the years that it may not be entirely fair to expect it to conquer suburban sprawl, too, but you would hope that a forward-thinking company would at least try not to compound the problem.
