Apple's new Steve Jobs Theater is absolutely gorgeous
You've probably already seen the monthly drone flyovers showing the Steve Jobs Theater as it was being constructed. But now it's finished, and we've just walked its entire circumference and all around the inside, and we have to say:
Apple's new Steve Jobs Theater is absolutely gorgeous.
The 1,000-seat theater embodies all of Steve Jobs' legacy, and his love for beautiful design and architecture, with the highest attention to detail paid to every corner.
If Apple's brand new Apple Park campus looks like a space ship, the Steve Jobs Theater is a flying saucer floating just outside of it.
The entire theater is made of massive floor-to-ceiling high curved glass panes. The top resembles a metal lid.
It is very reminiscent of a temple — a zen, minimalist sanctum that's all the more impressive when it's empty. That's no surprise since Jobs himself was influenced by Hinduism and Buddhism.
The acoustics inside thump, while swallowing up all the chatter of all those who gather within its glass walls. The music — a mix of calm, soothing sounds and melodies — match the setting. (Thank god, it's not U2.)
Here's what it's actually like inside:

This is the first time the public has been inside of Apple's new theater and the first impressions from everyone is that of awe. All around me, people have their jaws dropped, fawning over the glass, the marble staircases that line the inner walls.
Not a single detail was spared. If you think the sunlight beaming in accidentally creates a rainbow ring all around the floor of the theater, it's not. We're pretty sure it's deliberate.
