The temple is designed in traditional Old Russian forms, typical for the northern architecture of the Russian lands of the 16th-17th centuries. The closest analogue of individual architectural elements is the cathedral of the Nikolo-Shartomsky Monastery. The temple in Savino is a cross-domed four-column structure, divided by height into lower and upper temples. The temple itself is crowned by a central drum with a helmet-shaped dome.
The cross-domed system was chosen as the basis for the temple. All Assumption Cathedrals of large Russian cities were built in its image for many centuries.
