Charles + Ray = ♥ (via ModernSanDiego, which is amazing.)
From Steve Jobs, on the plans for Apple’s new headquarters:
One of his lingering memories was of the orchards that had once dominated the area, so he hired a senior arborist from Stanford and decreed that 80% of the property would be landscaped in a natural manner, with six thousand trees. “I asked him to make sure to include a new set of apricot orchards,” Jobs recalled. “You used to see them everywhere, even on the corners, and they’re part of the legacy of this valley.”
More of this, please.
What I like most about the renderings of Apple’s proposed campus is the grass. It’s not manicured. It looks like California.
