West Gate’s distinctive diamond-shaped plan creates a strong sense of orientation within a form that is entirely unique to this location. Slightly elevated within newly landscaped parkland along the River Irwell, West Gate enjoys an exceptional position that connects directly to the water’s edge. It introduces rare green space to the city centre, enhancing connectivity and offering residents a calm, natural outlook. Its stepped amenity terraces provide an exceptional variety of city and riverside views.
The tower’s diamond form defines its identity, with a façade of glazed vision panels, backpainted glass, and perforated aluminium arranged in three-storey bands. Inflected glass surfaces create texture and movement, allowing the building’s crystalline character to shift with light, season, and perspective.
Rachel Haugh & Ian Simpson
The design vision for West Gate focuses on bringing contemporary, considered luxury to life, creating a richly layered environment.
Neutral tones dominate the palette – creams, warm taupes, and soft browns – complemented by textured finishes such as stone-inspired flooring, wood panelling, and subtly patterned walls. The furniture throughout the building is carefully curated: striking contemporary pieces sit alongside relaxed, comfortable modern pieces with soft silhouettes and rich upholstery, complementing the wide variety of eclectic spaces. Overall, the design concept is warm, sophisticated, and meticulously detailed – a perfect embodiment of life at West Gate, rooted in comfort and elegance.
