Movie shows BIG and Heatherwick's Google HQ taking shape
Google's new California headquarters, designed by the studios of Bjarke Ingels and Thomas Heatherwick, is captured in this aerial footage that shows its "circus tent" roof well underway.
Photography company The 111th shot the footage of Google's new campus under construction on a site in California's Mountain View, after happening upon the giant structure on a during a flying tour of the nearby Silicon Valley.
The team, which specialises in real-estate photography, was alerted by its tent-like roof structure, which looks almost halfway built.
The 111th's movie footage shows the new Google campus roof almost halfway complete"On this flight in early November 2018 we were attracted by what looked like a huge halved circus tent, roofed in giant square panels, and we flew in for a closer inspection," The 111th told Dezeen. "The site's close proximity to Google's Headquarters in Mountain View, California on an adjoining lot, and the news about Google's plans for an unusual canopied structure, gave it away that this out-of-the-ordinary construction project was indeed Google's new dome just beginning to take shape."
International architecture firm BIG and London-based Heatherwick Studio teamed up to design the new campus – the first office complex that the internet giant will build from scratch. The design comprises a series of rectilinear modules, described as pavilions, covered by the vast canopy.
