New buildings in Silicon Valley

There is no doubt that Silicon Valley is the center of Science and Technology around the world. But if you take a trip to Silicon Valley, you will find that most of the buildings do not give you any sense of "technology". In fact, most of Silicon Valley's sights are no different from any office park in any American city.

But in the future Things can change a lot. With the market capitalisation and assets of Apple, Google, Facebook and so on, they are ready to step into the next stage, further strengthening the corporate image and making the culture more delicate to attract and retain the first-rate talent.

Apple's new UFO headquarters

Apple first announced the new headquarters before Steve Jobs left, a futuristic frisbee four-storey building that could hold 14,000 employees, 10,000 parking spaces underground and a product launch hall that would allow 1,000 people to participate. It is worth mentioning that Apple's past address has been one Infinite loop, and their new headquarters is really the infinite loop.

New headquarters of Nvidia

Then Nvidia also announced the design of the new headquarters in the former, which is the two-class triangle under the title of this article, almost mistaken for a stadium building. With a total of 500,000 square feet, the two buildings with open floors will be the new home for tens of thousands of employees. Why "triangle"? Because Nvidia's chips are the world's most triangular 3D wafers.

Facebook New Campus

Of course, we must not forget that Facebook Jin Li hired master Frank Gehry to design a new campus. Although not like the other "big Brother" like the future wind, but from the beginning of their own "town" momentum is also very exciting.

Google New headquarters

Google also asked NBBJ to design a new headquarters in Bay View, although it was in the early stages of the concept, but the green, irregular geometry of the map is already a rare new atmosphere in Silicon Valley.

Samsung Silicon Valley Headquarters

Not to allow local companies to specialize in the United States, the international division of High-tech Samsung also plans to invest in Silicon Valley headquarters, the main green concept, every two floors set up aerial garden.

When these buildings are completed in 2015-2016, it will not only bring another picture to Silicon Valley, but also attract more world-class talents from the world, and I think it will bring the high position of Silicon Valley in the world's technology industry to another peak.
