      I may be wrong, but I think it’s just a very convincing recreation?

      Edit: the building in the bottom half is the Temple Works in Leeds, built in 1836 in the Egyptian Revival style. It is a recreation of the Temple of Horus (top image) in Edfu, Egypt

      Like… I know it’s not the original building because how would there be a current photo of both of them. But, still, can’t be too sure with the British so had to double check

      Lol it’s too late and I’m tired and credulous. Should probs log off hey

        If we can’t steal their buildings then we will just steal their architectural style and culture 😎

    that’s actually extremely cool. i’d much prefer working in a building whose architecture evokes something real, and not the religious fart-huffing of the corporate marketing class
