could somebody post paragon pics?

just need outside pics of paragon.
everybody know, Mclaren official site still provide only graphics of that.
i am really curious.

what is paragon, or is it me who asks a stupid question??

Paragon is the old name for McLaren's new base MTC (McLaren Technology Centre).

There aren't any photos of it around because:
i) It is not finished.
ii) The building cannot be viewed from outside the land owned by McLaren.

The graphics available are a pretty good substitute for photos but are not even close to experiencing the real thing.

there are cgi's of it on the web

found three pics, but only show artificial lake with a bit side view of building.
is really not possible to see the entire view at the outside?
umm i just plan to go to UK in early of april. what i think that first place to see even though only side view is new mclaren technology center.
is not sometimes the chances to visit this building? i mean mclaren suggest the chance to public people from time to time.
My thought is stupid things?

Basically yes, it would be a waste of your time. Until the building is completely finished McLaren will not show any of the public round. They are very strict with security too. It simply cannot be seen from outside the site. Believe me, you would be very disappointed.

i found a pic of the place under construction...

I have some as well...

The second photo of Stratoraptor's is actually a shot of a scale model - something an architect or designer would build once the details were finalized. Here's a closer shot of that model with the roof panel removed to show some of the interior layout:

Here's a real photo take from overhead during construction - might be time to clean the algae in the pond. ;)

Here's two more real (I'm fairly certain) photos which show the building nearing completion. I believe these are recent shots - within the past 6 months anyway.
