Blueprint is working with Leicester City Council in the St George’s area of the city to deliver a new Digital Media Centre
In Detail Back 
The centre is being built by Blueprint with a partnership including Leicester City Council, East Midlands Development Agency, Leicester Shire Economic Partnership, the European Regional Development Fund and De Montfort University.
The DMC will replace the city’s Phoenix Arts Centre, providing three cinema screens, a digital exhibition space and digital production facilities. It will have space for 68 new businesses, a café and 63 high quality city-living apartments.
The Digital Media Centre is designed to be environmentally sustainable and to improve quality of life and work in the area with its arresting design and residential and commercial space.
Peter Connolly, Blueprint project director, said: “We are pleased to be working with our partners on this tremendous project. The building design will be unique in Leicester and will assist the regeneration of the city in general and of the Cultural Quarter in particular”.

Blueprint provided the land for the project at Morledge Street in the St George’s district of the city centre, which is the site of the city’s new Cultural Quarter with its high profile new Performing Arts Centre. The Cultural Quarter links the major regeneration area of the New Business Quarter to the heart of the City Centre.
Blueprint is also working on projects at Leicester’s Waterside and Wolsey Island, both key regeneration areas earmarked for residential and mixed-use development.
The Digital Media Centre is due to open next year.
