Founded in 2000, Andrew Wallace Architects in Didsbury Manchester provides full services

in architecture, master planning and interior design, informed by the belief that better quality design equates to better quality lives. Multi award winning Manchester Architects

Having been shortlisted for and/or won more than twenty-six local and RIBA credited architectural awards to date, we feel validated in our approach, which centres on the six key principles of diversity, sustainability, delight, analysis, collaboration and delivery. Over our years of practice to date, we have handled projects of a wide range of sizes, from small scale domestic projects to urban master planning, in the process developing an authentic and in-depth understanding of the importance of architecture’s relationship to its wider environment. We therefore place a great emphasis on the precise context of our architecture and interior design, having implemented a design process that is as indebted to technical innovation, performance and delivery as it is to such conventional values as form, space, materials and light.

The brief for House 223 was to replace a dilapidated house with a modern family home suitable for everyday living. Designing around the steep site meant giving each floor terraced outdoor space and orientating the living areas to capture views up and down the valley.
The open-plan top floor becomes the heart of daily life, filled with light and framed views.

House 223 is a contemporary family home thoughtfully carved into a steep hillside between Huddersfield and Holmfirth. By setting the house into the slope and keeping the basement garage fully underground, the new form sits sensitively within the greenbelt and keeps its scale controlled. Retractable glazed doors maximise access to terrace gardens and connect the inside with the landscape.

House 223 explores how thoughtful form and material expression can create calm, layered spaces that respond to place. By integrating fully retractable glazing and generous balconies to each level, the design blurs the line between inside and outside, making landscape and living feel intertwined.

A ‘U’-shaped apartment building arranged around a sheltered central courtyard, delivering excellent daylight, private outdoor space, and strong market appeal.
Each home benefits from inset balconies, underground parking, secure cycle storage, and a comprehensive sustainability strategy - including PV panels, MVHR, high thermal mass construction, and rainwater harvesting.
At Andrew Wallace Architects + Interior Designers, we focus on commercially viable, well-resolved residential buildings that are sustainable, attractive to buyers, and deliver strong returns.

A medium-density residential block designed to work equally well with what’s on site now - and what’s coming next.
Ground floor apartments are designed to function with temporary high boundary fencing, while seamlessly transitioning into active street frontages as the wider area regenerates. Defensible private gardens, green screens, and future-proofed layouts ensure the building evolves alongside its context.
This is architecture that adapts, protects investment, and supports long-term place-making.

Transforming a challenging brownfield site on the edge of Manchester city centre into a high-quality residential scheme.
This six-storey apartment building is carefully shaped to maximise unit numbers while staying below the 18m height threshold, avoiding unnecessary regulatory complexity. The layout responds not only to the current surroundings, but also to future neighbouring developments outlined in Manchester’s Strategic Regeneration Framework.
Smart planning, clear strategy, and long-term thinking - all focused on extracting maximum value from the site.

A living space designed to take your breath away.
The double-height lounge forms the centrepiece of this home, with floor-to-ceiling glazing framing views of the private garden and the sky beyond. Natural light pours in, creating a constantly changing atmosphere throughout the day.
The design is minimal yet warm, with limestone walls running seamlessly from the outside in, giving the impression the home has been carved from solid stone. The result is a space that feels calm, expansive, and deeply connected to its surroundings, perfect for both relaxation and gatherings. It’s not just a room, but an experience of space and light.

This striking new-build replaces a poorly planned single-storey dwelling, unlocking the full potential of the site. A contemporary home designed to transform a small, underused corner plot in Alderley Edge, Cheshire.

The bold ‘L’ shaped layout wraps around a private garden, creating a secluded outdoor space at the heart of the home. The exterior combines solid Jura Beige limestone walls with a crisp white rendered top form, striking a balance between strength and lightness.
Carefully placed glazing opens the house to natural light while maintaining privacy, thanks to its position within a small gated community. This is modern architecture with a focus on privacy, performance, and lifestyle, designed to meet the needs of a growing family while complementing its exclusive setting.
