contents Topological quantum codes are intrinsically fault-tolerant to local noise, and underlie the theory of topological phases of matter. We explore geometry to enhance the performance of topological quantum codes by rotating the four dimensional self-correcting quantum memory, and present codes targeted to both near-term and utility-scale quantum computers. We identify a full set of logical Clifford operations and with it design a universal fault-tolerant quantum architecture. Our design achieves single-shot error correction, significant reductions in required qubits, and low-depth logical operations. In turn, our proposed architecture relaxes the requirements for achieving fault tolerance and offers an efficient path for realization in several near-term quantum hardware implementations. Our [[96,6,8]] 4D Hadamard lattice code has low weight-6 stabilizers and depth-8 syndrome extraction circuits, a high pseudo-threshold of $\sim 0.01$, and a logical error rate of $\sim 10^{-6}$ per logical qubit per round of error correction at $10^{-3}$ physical error rate under a standard circuit-level noise model. A Clifford-complete logical gate set is presented, including a constructive and efficient method for Clifford gate synthesis.
