Broadcasting House, Broadcasting headquarters in Llandaff, Cardiff, United Kingdom.

The modernist structure featured three blocks containing studios, offices, and technical facilities spread across a ten-acre site north of Cardiff city center.

Broadcasting House served as BBC Wales headquarters from 1967 until 2019, beginning operations with radio studios in 1966 and adding television facilities in the 1970s.

The complex produced English and Welsh language content for radio, television, and online platforms, serving as the national broadcaster for Wales until its closure.

The former broadcasting center underwent demolition between 2021 and 2022, with plans to transform the site into Parc Llandaf residential development with 400 housing units.

Welsh architect Ivan Dale Owen designed the building with influences from Walter Gropius and Mies van der Rohe, incorporating long low-rise sections and expansive glazing.
