A space that ‘wowed’ employees and guests

Sky needed a new space to solve some key issues. First, it was to be a permanent home for a range of teams. Second, act as a touch down space for people either working on their own or in teams. And third, provide a sleek meeting environment to host clients.

As a selection of properties was put together, it became clear that many couldn’t meet the short timelines. Plus there were some security concerns around the high-profile figures and confidential project teams who might use the space.

The solution was to take a complete floor, rather than a shared one, in a building filled with technological enhancements. This smart space not only served to give employees a great platform on which to work; but also suitably impressed everyone who walked through its doors.
