Willis Building (Ipswich) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Willis Building (Ipswich) :''For the Willis Building in London, also designed by Norman Foster, see Willis Building (London)'' The Willis building (originally the Willis Faber and Dumas Headquarters) in Ipswich, England, is one of the earliest buildings designed by Norman Foster after establishing Foster Associates. Constructed between 1970 and 1975 for the insurance firm now known as Willis Group Holdings, it is now seen as a landmark in the development of the 'high tech' architectural style. The building houses some 1,300 office staff in open plan offices spread over three floors. ==Location==
The bulbous floorplan of the office block reflects the layout of the available site in the centre of Ipswich, which is sandwiched between several road junctions and the Grade I listed Unitarian Meeting House, one of Ipswich's oldest surviving buildings. Thus two of the town's Grade I listed buildings stand side by side.
