Apple Park is a 4-story building with a huge donut shape, with the entire surface being covered with glass is a major point of design. It is a design that melts into the surrounding landscape by using glass and it seems to be an effect integrated with the surrounding trees, but this attempt has caused unexpected harm.

In January 2018, employees started moving from the previous headquarters and immediately after moving to the new headquarters, there are situations in which people who crash into this glass window are continuing. Moreover, at least three of them have been in a state of calling an ambulance by dialing the emergency call "911". An employee male told the local newspaper San Francisco Chronicle, "When I was about to leave the building, I crashed into the glass door on the first floor of Apple Park,"TalkingIn that case he called an ambulance.


Also, on 2 January 2018 two days before the man, a big "accident" is happening. On the day when Apple's employees started moving to the new building, when Apple informed 911, "There is a person who ran into the wall of the glass and struck a head, a small injury came in the head I am bleeding and I am in a state of panic. "I explain that I am calling an ambulance.

Furthermore, on the same same January 2 another middle-aged male employee crashed into the glass window. In that case as well, 911 reporting has been done, and in the call record, there is a voice saying "Employees are hitting the glass windows and striking their heads, there are cuts around the eyelids" The man is injured enough to receive several needle sewing procedures. However, in these cases, it is said that unfortunate happiness was that no one was injured as much as actually being transported to the hospital.

In regards to this matter, Apple also has a problem, and Dan Whisenhunt, director in charge of real estate-related affairs, says, "We are addressing this issue." In response to the situation where ambulances take off, Apple is taking measures to stick a seal to enhance the visibility of the glass, and according to San Francisco Chronicle, "There is no accident to the extent that an emergency call is made" . It is preferable if the situation is improved, but it is a place where I feel a little worried whether the emergency call function of the iPhone was actually used at the time of this report.
