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.
In order to maintain proportions and rationally use the interior space, especially in the north of Rus', two-tiered temples were often built, i.e. a lower floor or basement and a higher upper temple. In our case, a lower temple is provided, a lower one with thicker walls as a winter one and a high upper one.
Another detail of Old Russian architecture is used in the project - a staircase tower. Such towers were also present in the ancient Lavra Church and at the Vladimir and Novgorod Cathedrals. Unfortunately, many stair towers were dismantled in the 19th century, as they were considered late additions.
