The building will include twin towers that are linked by a sky bridge that Foster + Partners say; “will also double up as a platform for the firm to showcase its latest technology”. But there’s more, as the press release explained that facilities at the new headquarters will also include state-of-the-art gyms, ‘robot fighting rings’, a new theatre for product launches and a public exhibition space.
