Sky’s Leeds office required an acoustic solution that would deliver effective sound control while reinforcing brand identity within a large, open workspace. Working alongside Jackson Taylor Architects and contractor Overbury, a bespoke ceiling feature was developed using Autex Acoustics ceiling beams.
A series of large suspended acoustic beams were installed, all printed in colours matched precisely to the Sky brand palette. This created a striking visual statement while ensuring consistent acoustic performance across the space.
The installation successfully balances aesthetics and functionality, improving acoustic comfort within the office while delivering a strong branded interior that aligns with Sky’s corporate identity.

HBN 00-09 sets out these surface characteristics because unsealed joints are a recognised place for moisture and micro-organisms to collect. A genuinely joint-free edge is designed to address that specific detail.
This is a surface and edge specification, not a clinical claim. Zero-joint technology has not been evaluated or certified by NHS England, and does not claim to reduce infection rates.
Food-service and guest-facing areas are typically inspected under hygiene and housekeeping standards that look closely at surfaces and joints. A seamless, moisture-resistant edge is designed with exactly that kind of scrutiny in mind.
Every one of these sectors shares the same underlying surface problem: a bonded-strip edge is a seam, and a seam is a place where dirt, moisture or wear can concentrate in a way a continuous surface can't. Zero-joint technology addresses that one structural detail across offices, schools, healthcare and hospitality settings alike — one construction detail, one shared weak point removed, four sectors that each care about it for their own reasons.
