A flagship building built by Mace for broadcaster Sky in west London is having to be repaired because the roof is leaking.

Called Sky Central, the £220m building, designed by Amanda Levete’s practice AL_A with PLP as delivery architect, was completed in 2016 and has been showered with a host of accolades including the BCO’s corporate workplace and Best of the Best awards for 2017.

In its citation for the Best of the Best award, the BCO said: “Sky Central defines a new model for the industry’s fast-paced and evolving future. The project exudes collaboration at every level and has achieved excellent post-occupancy results.”
