Apple's $5 billion campus wasn't always meant to be a 'spaceship' — here's what it could've looked like (AAPL).
Apple Park, Apple's new $5 billion (£3.7 billion) Cupertino, California headquarters, wasn't always designed to look like the aptly named, ring-looking "Spaceship" it is.
The Norman Foster Foundation — which branches out from the famous architecture studio that helped Apple design and build Apple Park — recently published a book with pictures depicting different designs for the tech giant's new home (as first reported by 9to5Mac).
The book, filled with shots by photographer José Manuel Ballester, is called "Spaces," and shows prototype ideas that vary from a simple cluster of buildings (not too different from the old One Infinite Loop's layout), to more radical designs like a spider-looking building or a three-blade propeller, which Steve Jobs himself was apparently a fan of.
