Apple's "spaceship" campus, located in Cupertino, California, cost $5 billion to build.
- Apple employees keep walking into glass panes inside of the company's new "spaceship" headquarters, Apple Park, say reports from MarketWatch and Bloomberg.
- The injuries were reportedly so bad in two cases that the company had to call emergency services.
- Apple design guru Jony Ive considers Apple Park to be a masterpiece of design.
Apple Park, the tech titan's new Silicon Valley "spaceship" headquarters is considered a feat of architecture and design- Apple design chief Jony Ive himself led its creation.
And yet, the campus seems to have a problem: People keep walking into walking into the building's signature glass walls and doors, according to reports from Bloomberg and MarketWatch.
MarketWatch cites sources at Apple who claim that because so much of Apple Park's interior is made of glass, people keep smacking into walls and closed doors. In two cases, the injuries were so bad that the company had to call emergency services, MarketWatch confirmed with public records.
Recognizing the problem, employees began to put sticky notes on glass doors so employees would know they were there. But Apple management removed them because they didn't match the with design of the building, Bloomberg reported.
The $5 billion Apple Park campus was originally proposed by Apple cofounder Steve Jobs shortly before his death in 2011. It officially opened to Apple employees earlier this year, supplanting the famous 1 Infinite Loop campus as the company's main seat of power.
But the notoriously secretive company will probably never allow the public to see inside, CEO Tim Cook said at a shareholder meeting earlier this week.
Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
