SINGAPORE: When the new National Stadium comes to life in April 2014, it will be iconic in design.

The stadium will be the centre piece of the new $1.33 billion Singapore Sports Hub sprawling across 35 hectares of land.

It will enhance Singapore’s position as a city — not only to live and work in, but to play in too.

It’s still some two years away but when the stadium is completed, it will be a showcase for cutting—edge sports design.

The talking point will be the world’s largest dome roof spanning some 310 metres.

The 55,000 seating capacity stadium with its retractable top will be a fully integrated sports, entertainment and lifestyle hub accessible to everyone 24 hours a day all year round.
