British architect Norman Foster is drawing up plans for a new Apple HQ tentatively titled Apple City. Apple City will expand the company's current Cupertino, California, headquarters to include underground tunnels and housing for workers that incorporates renewable energy.
It is being reported that the design of Apple City will be heavily influenced by Masdar, Abu Dhabi, which can be seen in the gallery above. If that is the case than the house that Jobs and the iPhone built will be a technological marvel years ahead of its time.
