Apple "Spaceship" Campus by Spencer_R Via Flickr: The model's facade is constructed in segments using white LEGO 1x2 rail plates and trans-black plates. A faceted approach to approximating the curvature of a round building is a traditional approach in both LEGO and in actual building construction. This is in stark contrast to the actual Apple Park "Spaceship" which is truly a round building using the largest panels of curved glass in the world. Each outer ring glass panel is 15m in length and the inner ring panels are 11m long. Using various considerations for the LEGO model's scale and symmetry, the math worked out to 144 outer ring segments and 112 inner segments. The ring is about 2.5ft in diameter.
