"Completed in 1840, the Grade I-listed building was designed by Joseph Bonomi the Younger and takes its architectural inspiration from Ancient Egypt. The smaller building, with its imposing facade, was based on the Temple of Horus at Edfu, and the larger factory, once the biggest single room in the world, was inspired by the Typhonium at Dendera. It played a major role in the industrial revolution in Leeds, and now it’s set to be given a new lease of life as the home of British Library North."
"A ‘one-of-a-kind’ indeed, Temple Works was completed way back in 1840 after designer Joseph Bonomi relied a lot on Ancient Egyptian for the architecture. The smaller building was based on Temple of Horus at Edfu, while Typhonium inspired the larger factory at Dendera. The industrial revolution saw a prominent role that the building played since then and is currently, vacant."
