The Ring's interior has large rooms, glass walls, entryways, and wide open spaces that can be collapsed into smaller structures like shared spaces and conference rooms. In the Ring, a hallway divides the saucer into eight identical segments. And while the hallway exists in beautiful intricate loops that may make its length seem shorter than it really is, it stretches up to three-quarters of a mile, end-to-end.
A seismic base isolation system was built two stories underground to protect the Ring from mild to moderate earthquakes. The isolation system protects the structure from all but the most severe earthquakes. The base isolation's design is a modified version of those commonly used in Japan's large buildings. The isolation structure comprises 692 steel saucers that run two stories into the ground, creating support and stabilization while allowing some rotational movement of the Ring.
Sir Ive continued, "There are so many connections between floors. There are light wells that go all the way down.”Steve Jobs had a vision of a campus with dynamic design, just like the dynamic designs of many Apple products. Jobs purchased parcels of land that Hewlett-Packard formally owned. While Steve Jobs presented the Apple Park plan to the Cupertino City Council, he sadly didn't live to see construction begin on the land.
