The second phase of Dubai Design District, created by UK studio Foster + Partners, was unveiled at Cityscape Global.

Aimed at attracting members of the creative business community, the second phase expansion includes 100 hectares of built-up space to serve as a cultural centre. It is expected to be completed by 2018.

It will also comprise offices, co-working communal facilities, outdoor display venues and pedestrianised spaces.
