Master Lego builder Spencer R has published the photos of his recreation of the Apple Park built entirely from Lego pieces. Check out the images below to see the detail that is being included in this awesome model of the real Apple Park, which covers 175 acres, although the awesome Apple Park LEGO model is only 1/650 scale.
The Creation Process
Designed and built over the course of two years by automotive engineer and brick enthusiast Spencer Rezkalla, this LEGO masterpiece measures 19 square feet and weighs over 75 pounds. The project required meticulous planning and an eye for detail, as it includes nearly every structure on the actual site. This includes the iconic ring, the company’s R&D facility, the parking garage — complete with tunnel entrance and exit — the fitness center, the historic Glendenning Barn, and, of course, the Steve Jobs Theater. The exact number of pieces used to build it is unknown, but it’s no doubt in the thousands — and since it’s not for sale, it’s not that important, anyway.
Spencer’s dedication to this project is evident in the intricate details he managed to capture. For instance, the ring structure, which is the centerpiece of Apple Park, is known for its futuristic design and massive scale. Recreating this in LEGO required not just a large number of pieces but also a deep understanding of the architectural nuances of the original building. The parking garage, with its tunnel entrance and exit, adds another layer of complexity, showcasing Spencer’s ability to translate real-world structures into LEGO form.
Additional Features and Details
One of the standout features of this LEGO model is the inclusion of the Steve Jobs Theater. This auditorium is a significant part of Apple Park, known for hosting major Apple events and product launches. Spencer’s model captures the sleek, modern design of the theater, complete with its glass walls and minimalist aesthetic. The historic Glendenning Barn, another feature of the model, adds a touch of history and tradition to the otherwise modern landscape of Apple Park.
The fitness center, another integral part of the Apple Park campus, is also meticulously recreated in the LEGO model. This facility is known for its state-of-the-art equipment and design, providing Apple employees with a space to maintain their physical well-being. Including this in the model highlights Spencer’s commitment to capturing every aspect of the Apple Park experience.
Moreover, the landscaping around the structures is also worth noting. Apple Park is known for its lush greenery and open spaces, designed to create a serene and inspiring environment for its employees. Spencer’s model includes miniature trees and green spaces, adding to the overall realism and beauty of the creation.
