The 2000 sqm museum was designed by world famous Israeli designer Ron Arad and will be part of the mediatheque। The Israeli design center was established in september 2004, within the mediatheque, headed by dr. Razi Amitay, which contains a new, updated city library, and a new theatre for young audiences. The new Design Museum is located in an area of regeneration in the city of Holon a few miles south of Tel Aviv.
