Bandiin Dambiinyam (Mongolian: Бандийн Дамбийням; July 15, 1924 – October 9, 2001) was a Mongolian architect.
Dambiinyam broke with Soviet-influenced Socialist architecture by incorporating elements of traditional Mongolian design in his work, such as the Urt Tsagaan service district; the pavilion for the Pioneer Palace; the facades of State Department Store, Bacteriological Institute, and 'Gutalyn 22' residential apartments; the B. Tserendorj monument; and the Mongolian traditional felt ‘ger’ home design on the dome of the State Bank building.
Many of Dambiinyam's projects focused on public services such as the Orphan Center and School; the Ministry of Geology, Mining, and Industry; the Chingeltei District Fire Station; the Vystavka Exhibition Center; city halls; hotels; and health and wellness resorts throughout the Mongolian countryside.
In a March, 1982 interview with A. Myagmarzhav in the article, "Beautiful Building-The Soul’s Decoration," in Builder magazine published in Ulaanbaatar, Dambiinyam said, "I've participated in the design of approximately 150 buildings and general plans for sum settlements . I like to say "participated" because design work is collaborative work. Some of the biggest are: Pioneer Palace buildings; State Institute of Hygiene, Infection, and Bacteriology; Central Fire Command; Radiation Hospital; Infectious Disease Hospital; Songino Rest Center ; Ulaanbaatar City Service Center (known as Urt Tsagaan or Long White); Khovd Province Musical Drama Theater buildings; etc."
