Templeton Business Centre, Glasgow

Modelled on the Venetian Doge's Palace, the Templeton Carpet Factory was built in 1889 to a design by the architect William Leiper and is a remarkable architectural tour-de-force, characterised by multicoloured brickwork on the facade facing onto Glasgow Green. Messrs Templeton vacated the premises for a new site in 1978 and the factory was converted in 1984 to the Templeton Business Centre.
