#suckitZuckerberg - *psssst*the new Apple building doesn't have seams in the carpet

[underpants]

and it's larger than the Pentagon

A little inside info from, let's say, a relative- Apple didn't want seams in the carpet in the common areas or "quad" units. But how do you access the infrastructure (wiring, electrical, plumbing, etc. ) under raised floor? ....hmmmmm .... don't glue it down.

Roll it up when needed and then roll it back down.

Only one team in the carpeting industry figured that out.

Not being sarcastic- this whole thing was and is a serious undertaking.

1. "seams," perhaps

An unseemly carpet is a mistake. An unseamly carpet, though is a glory to behold. LOL!

2. Roll? Most carpet in commercial and govt buildings are carpet tiles.

Installed properly, there are no seams or edges.

3. There are certainly seams

My office is that way and one particular square of the carpet has to be replaced fairly frequently due to how my chair rolls over it. There's clearly a seam there that is weak for whatever reason.

10. In the offices there will be squares

But outside that they wanted on piece of carpet per floor.

[klook]

11. There are certainly a lot of squares in my office!

Work! It's so fucking great!!

4. Is that a building or a spaceship?

Or both? Wouldn't it be cool if it took off?

7. Its a portal...

Giant monsters and robots will come though it.

Or tax abatement. Same thing.
