More on suburban California - this new tech attraction: Apple's $5 billion headquarters, Apple Park. Awesome completely round and has walls made of glass. Inside the building, which is one mile in a circle, Apple employees are busy working on the The big thing is, as the new iPhones are expected to come out this September.This means that Apple Park is a special place for Apple fans and devotees. Many flock to Cupertino, California, about an hour south of San Francisco, every day to get an idea of what some call a spaceship. Here are some tips to get the most out of the visit, where Apple's magic is going: Apple Park, better known as the spaceship campus for the striking, circular design of its main building, has been welcoming workers for nearly a year, though the finishing touches are still being added to parts of the sprawling site. During a shareholder meeting on February 13 - the first to be held at the Steve Jobs Underground Theater on campus - one of the attendees asked Apple CEO Tim Cook when they could get a tour of the famous doughnut-shaped headquarters in Cupertino, California. But CEO Tim Cook didn't have any of that, according to Business Insider's Keith Leswing, who attended the meeting. The Apple boss said the problem with offering tours around the main facility is that we have so many confidential things around. Cook described it as the scourge of my existence to keep things confidential, dashing the hopes of Apple fans and design nerds wanting to one day step inside for a sneak peek into the building's impressive ring shape. Joni Ive: This is our home, as Lesving, Apple's chief designer, Joni Ive, said in an interview in late 2017. We haven't made Apple Park for other people, Ive told Fast Company, adding: This is our home. The person behind many of Apple's most successful products said that if you get access, you'll find different teams working together in open-plan office space. An industrial designer will sit next to a font designer who will sit next to a sound engineer who will sit next to a motion graphics designer, and a tactic expert, and someone who is used to working on three-dimensional figures that are animated, next to a user interface expert, with digital model manufacturers and physical real fashion designers Ive said. If it was confidential, it's no longer the case. Of course, there's no reason why Apple should open its headquarters to the public, though perhaps the shareholder who asked Cook on Tuesday hoped that at least investors could be offered a quick look. Admittedly, the nearest ordinary people will get to Apple Park will be through a new visitor center to a technology company that includes a store, exhibition space and cafe, as well as a view of the campus and its main building. Cook said it was built for lovers and tourists to get them as close as possible to the park itself, with its roof deck offering a nice visual. Another way to get a view of the campus -- at least its appearance -- is through of the many flyover videos to watch on YouTube. Matthew Roberts has made regular visits over the past few years, tracking progress in construction, and his latest effort, posted this month and embedded above, shows that Apple Park is largely finished.
