Architecture of presidential centers: design model

Architecton: Proceedings of Higher Education №3 (91) September, 2025

The architectural features of presidential centers are examined with the aim of subsequently developing a design model for such facilities, addressing the following issues: memorial, multifunctional, and monumental architecture in buildings dedicated to heads of state; and actualization of architectural structures named after heads of state.
Key classification criteria are suggested for presidential centers. The chronologies of the presidential centers in the United States and the CIS countries are reviewed; the design and construction features of the presidential centers are identified; a model demonstrating design options for all presidential centers in the US and the CIS countries is proposed.
