Nerv HQ layout
After watching End of Evangelion for the second time I always wondered what Nerv Hq looked like on the inside. Does anybody have an idea of what it looks like it looks like on the inside?

Re: Nerv HQ layout
There's a superstructure (the pyramid) and a substructure where the rest of Nerv is located, like the command room and the Evangelion cages. We know the substructure is quite deep, since an Evangelion has to travel several tens (if not hundreds) of body lengths to get to Terminal Dogma, and that space is big enough for there to be entire ships that don't even come close to scraping the ceiling.
Anecdotally, people enter Nerv through the superstructure and it looks like they can take a long escalator down to the substructure. The command room seems to be located adjacent to the Evangelion cages, since Shinji in episode 19 is seen to push Zeruel through the walls of the command center (which Zeruel reached by descending into a large pipe of some kind) and into an Evangelion cage, then up into a launch tube from which it launches to the surface of the Geofront. Misato and co. are able to run outside fairly quickly, suggesting the command room isn't that far from the surface.
As to the actual physical layout, maybe there are production sketches somewhere?

Shin Evangelion brought me back, five long years later.

Re: Nerv HQ layout
To my knowledge there are no hard layout sketches, but what we do know is that the launch pads are situated around the edges of the geofront, based on various scenes in the show and the fact that there is no other place to put them
I can see why Gendo hired Misato to do the actual commanding. He tried it once and did an appalling job. ~ AWinters

The movies function on their own terms. If people can't accept them on those terms, and keep expecting them to be NGE, then they probably should have realized a while ago that they weren't going to have a good time. ~ Words of wisdom courtesy of Reichu

Re: Nerv HQ layout
It seems that Nerv's central command level is hexagonal, if Misato's map is any indication -

Re: Nerv HQ layout
Keep in mind that this is partially headcanon, but if all command and control structures are located within Central Dogma, and Terminal Dogma holds all the classified materials, then I would wager the NERV Pyramid holds all the clerical and executive offices for NERV. HR, Payroll, Gendo's and Fuyutsuki's offices, etc.
