Hodder designed. They tend to go for looks something a bit less ordinary.
Tbf over 80% of it looks as ordinary as anything by your pals at simpson haugh. The only interesting bit is what will make the photos. But my comment was more on the quality of it, the build in particular.
For the record I am not as against that whole (SH big sleek rectangle) look as you and some are. Not my cup of tea as such, but I accept it, particularly if delivered well.

Evening, I just think a bit of variety will make the skyline more interesting that's all. I appreciate the quality tho.
I agree. I was suggesting that the variety is marginal.
But appreciated all the same, and better than without it.

In the last picture, 4 towers are currently under construction, Staycity, Fusion, 2x Contour. 10 more towers either have planning permission or are proposed, including Manchester’s tallest tower, Viadux 2.
Happy Christmas. :-)

Weird how these artists' impressions have clear blue skies; it's Manchester!
More cloudy and ‘clear blue’ skies. ;-)

One of those lovely days high on Saddleworth Moors that remind you why you love living in the area, means you can look down on Manchester from afar while enjoying the local view too.

Great to see such an iconic building being brought back to life. Another Domis scheme.

The developer’s vision for a 44-storey residential building at 2-4 Whitworth Street West has taken a step closer to reality after the submission of a planning application to Manchester City Council.
