Describe the architecture of the Rayburn Building.
Permalink   
 


The Rayburn House Office Building Washington is a neoclassical building characterized by its massive marble facades and interior designs reflective of the era in which it was constructed (the 1960s). It has a modified H-shaped structure that is multi-leveled (having underground levels of parking) and contains some architectural decorations such as sculptures, columns, and marble designs. In addition, it is composed of a series of offices, hearing rooms, and other legislative spaces for members of Congress. As per the observations of housera, it represents a mixture of classical governmental architecture with modern functional aspects.
