Every studio and apartment at Willis is designed to be turnkey and intuitive. Thoughtfully planned layouts support effortless daily living, with kitchens fully equipped with all the essentials — from cookware and utensils to the everyday amenities that make preparing meals simple and familiar. Soft, high-quality bed linens and plush towels offer the comfort of a boutique-hotel experience within the privacy of your own apartment. Carefully considered interiors balance function and warmth, creating a composed place to land within the city.
The Willis building
Established in 1911 as Willis & Co., a piano manufacturing company, the building has evolved through decades of use — from industrial production to office spaces. Today, reborn as Willis, it blends contemporary living with the enduring character of its original architecture.
