2. I was born on 27 of November in 1992, Ulaanbaatar Mongolia. Since I was a child,
I have been curious about building and space around us. In order to understand
that what the space, building and social environment is, I need to study for ma-
jor that called ARCHITECTURE. Following my intention I became architect over
the stadium at Mongolian university of science and technology. During the study
of mine, I have been working at some of Mongolian architectural studios as a
trainee, simultaneously. This patient intention and hard work really helped me to
become good architect who has good vision, technical skills and also good de-
signing method et cetera. When I have finished university, I have started working
in one of Mongolian quite famous architectural firm “Armonde Group”. While I
have been working at the company I just learn lots of things and improved my-
self much more than before how I was. First one year in this company utterly
like technical drawing supportive worker and I have been working as visualizer
as well. From second year of three year in this company, they started give me
an opportunity to handle number of small projects by my own. After years later
everything became much more challenging. Which are working with clients of
the big projects and handle these projects as a head of the whole project. While
working at this company I have opened my eyes in a different way as an architect.
And also I could say that I understand what is important for design work and
concept development is, and was about to improve myself in a different way that
how I was improving my skills. Then I have decided to go to foreign country to do
my Master’s degree. I did believe that is the way to see beyond that I can’t see yet.
I could say that I have an advanced level of English and I have a capability to cal-
ibrate with others as a professional architect. But currently I don’t have a English
certificate that can prove my English level.
2010-2015 graduated Mongolian university of science and technology, school of
building and architecture in Architecture field with bachelor degree.

4. SARUUL RESIDENTIAL CAMPUS
The latest project made in Armonde group. I was working as head of the de-
sign team for this project. Difficulty of the project was to fit many number
of apartment in the small plot and provide green, open area as well. Main
requirements of project are basically client’s wish. Because of this we had
many things to solve for the project. Following that amount of apartment
we had to design 2 level of parking lot as same size of whole building plot
underground. In order to separate greenery from traffic in outside we have
lifted up the part that facing to traffic. By this solution we assume that can
decrease the noise and untended connection from surrounding.
6. ZAISAN HILL TOWNHOUSE
The project made by my freelance project. Client wanted to have pre luxury town-
houses below of Zaisan hill. Most challenging part of the design work is to deal
with the hill’s landscape curvature.
A number of openings puncture the rear wall of the three-storey extension, which
is clad in white render featuring linear markings. Among these are two glazed
doors that open onto the back garden – one of which is topped with another
window – an opening on the upper level. There are also three skylights.
Inside, the architects carved two voids into the floor of the addition to allow the
natural light into the new rooms and the three levels of the existing house.
A studio workroom occupies the double-height space of the extension, and is
covered completely in grey stone tiles that also form a slender sink. Next to this is
the children’s playroom, below the void in the floor above.
8. INTERNATIONAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
The new Elementary School of Mongol Global was built on the old municipal
baseball field, beside the soccer field, and is surrounded by a wonderful wooden
area. The building regroups twelve classrooms, two kindergartens, a daycare, a li-
brary, a computer laboratory, few administrative offices and a gymnasium which
was designed to be doubled, if needed. The steel structure of this two storey
school was conceived to receive twelve more classrooms and an extension of the
gymnasium. The school was designed to allow the access of the gymnasium (and
its services) to the citizens of the municipality after the working and teaching
hours. The proximity of the school within the wooden area and its creek creates
an inspiring environment for the students and the staff, giving the impression of
a “tree house/classroom”.
The school was designed according to the principles of the sustainable develop-
ment. In fact, the building’s footprint is as minimal as it can be. Every room along
its perimeter has operable windows which allow a fresh breeze to get in to cool
the spaces if needed. The building includes a cooling and heating geothermic
system, reducing its energy cost when facing a hot summer day or a cold one in
winter, and has a solar wall which helps in preheating the air.
10. SARUUL SHOPPING MALL
One of the project with Armonde group. The mall building has three main en-
trances guide visitors into two contrasting internal atria, which flood the design
with natural light, and connect the upper levels of the mall. the northern atrium is
defined by the use of golden and bronze materials, reflecting the region’s cultur-
al identity, while the southern atrium employs reflective silver and grey textures
echoing the urban rhythm of the city.
12. YAARMAG MIXEDUSE BUILDING
The project I have made in Armonde Group. Client wanted to have pre luxury ho-
tel and apartment including mixed use of functions as well. The building itself has
2 underground level 20 upper levels. 2 underground levels has parking lots, 1-4
level has swimming pool, steam bath, sauna, retail area and office. Most challeng-
ing part of the design work is to deal with high range of slope and unground level.
And also we didn’t have enough space to design greenery, play grounds but in
order to design those functions, we have used terraces in the top of parking lots.
13. ULAANBAATAR CITY STANDARD HAND-
BOOK
The resent biggest work was these standard handbooks. In 2019 goverment goal
was to make Ulaanbaatar city have their own local guide book. So that our agen-
cy created by Mayor and now we are developing standards which is more useful
to us.
15. SARUUL MARKET
This market hall located in Center of UB is the solution for an open square full
of cars. The building positions itself between center and highway. Around this
place are three adjoining Gothic towers. For decades there are plans for this place
, but unfortunately it never has implemented. The urban areas became unrecog-
nizable, they searched for a solution. By their design of a market hall, they could
create a public open square, which could be used for different kind of events.
They placed an fireplace in the open hall, so it also can be used in wintertime. The
hight of the building joins the older low-rise buildings in the area. The architects
also gave the market hall a sustainable future, by placing water basins to capture
the rainwater and the low-energy consumption.
20. Good architecture is not solving all of problems with high amount of cost, but by the action of
building itself and art is not enough for architecture.
