Nvidia’s new translucent HQ wants to one-up Apple’s spectacular iSpaceship

Nevermind that iSpaceship, Apple's breathtaking curved-glass, circular-shaped research campus, won’t open until mid-2016 - in Silicon Valley, the race is on on who gets to build the most spectacular corporate structure first. Graphics powerhouse Nvidia has thrown down the gauntlet by announcing Wednesday a state of the art new HQ.

Covering one million square feet, the massive site will be comprised of two triangle-shaped buildings with a distinct feature: a nearly translucent glass roof. Part of its campus expansion in Santa Clara, Nvidia describes the upcoming headquarters in Apple's parlance, as “iconic”...

Apple’s spectacular all-glass iSpaceship building, officially known as Campus 2 and meant to be a research campus, is massive, breathtaking and just downright amazing. We previously marveled at its beautiful curved design depicted in technical drawings, official filings and high-resolution.

Now, a fresh set of drawings surfaced and they're beautiful. These blueprints include various close ups of the building's exterior details and its exquisite interior. Boy, would I want to board a Mothership like this...
