This video was shot sometime in 2024, and it provides a super cool overview of the project. The launch of the King Abdullah International Gardens is planned for Autumn 2025, although it looks like many important details still need to be completed. I'm not sure it will be ready on time, but you never know - anything is possible in the GCC.

UK studio Zaha Hadid Architects has revealed designs for the Centre of Mediterranean Culture, which is currently under construction on its coastal site in Reggio Calabria, Italy.

Informed by its marine setting, the centre is set to comprise a sinuous, round-edged volume that draws on the "radial symmetry of starfish", and will be finished with reflective aluminium panels and rounded roof openings.

Once complete, the 24,000-metre-square centre will serve as a cultural space hosting events, exhibitions and forums for the local community.
