The Sariyev House was built in the late Art Nouveau style, and completed in 1902 with features distinctive to the form that had developed in the city. These include the stone plastering details, namely rusticated granite lesenes and prominent basement belts on the lower sections, and decorative keystones of the first floor windows and upper windows. The building's design incorporated variants of a progressive approach to the structural scheme, which became widespread at the beginning of the 20th century.
