nay mai ( [na(ː)j˧˧] [maːj˧˧] ) is a Vietnamese creative studio + physical space founded by Như Ý and Tân.
nay mai translates to today (and) tomorrow. There’s a Vietnamese saying “nay đây mai đó” which roughly translates to here today, somewhere else tomorrow. We are not always bound to one destination, both timely and physically. It’s human nature to always change, improve, and refresh ourselves to move us forward. With that mindset, we believe that it’s important to design with meaning and purpose while also having fun and enjoying the unknown that comes with it.
We believe that inclusivity and accessibility through design and information is the only way for us to move forward. Our goal at nay mai is to not only create meaningful, thoughtful designs for the community but also share and open-source those ideas with others.
