The Willis Building: Designing an Ipswich icon

Secret Suffolk

Available for over a year

In this continuation of our celebration of the Willis Building's 50th anniversary, we delve deeper. We hear Naomi’s interview with the legendary Lord Norman Foster. They discuss the inspiration behind the design, the innovative rooftop garden, and the indoor swimming pool that made the Willis Building a revolutionary structure when it opened on 2 June 1975. If you have ideas for future Secret Suffolk features, you can email matt.marvel@bbc.co.uk Part 2 of 2
