A 240-square-meter studio on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, second floor, with morning light, slow Phin coffee, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting. You're welcome to stop by.
Tucked above a coffee shop in District 1. Easy to find, easier to leave with new ideas.
2nd floor, between Pasteur and Cong Truong Lam Son.
District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
The entrance is the small wooden door on the right of Lừa Coffee — look for the brass Delulu plate.
Grab/Taxi: Drop pin at “19/6A Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, Quan 1” — most drivers know it.
Scooter: Free street parking on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai or paid lot at 21 NTMK (5 mins walk, 5,000 VND).
From Ben Thanh Market: 8 minutes walk via Pasteur. Open in Google Maps
Buzz the door, take the stairs, find someone friendly — that's usually how it goes. We'll have water, coffee, or trà đá if it's hot.
If you're early, Lừa Coffee downstairs is genuinely good. We do half our brainstorms there.
240 square meters of warmly lit chaos. Vintage Indochinese tiles, second-hand wooden desks, exposed beams, and one surprisingly excellent coffee setup.
District 1's quieter side — more book-lined cafés than tourist spots. The kind of corner where the same faces show up every morning.
Where we go to think, write, or escape Slack for an hour.
Cơm tấm runs, banh mi grabs, the Friday bún bò ritual.
5-minute strolls when the screen needs a break.
The small choices that add up. The things you only notice once you've worked here a month.
A Faema espresso machine and a dozen ceramic Phin filters. The first one is brewed at 8:30 sharp. Not negotiable.
An old Marantz turntable in the lounge. The team takes turns picking the record. Unspoken rule: nothing too loud before 10am.
27 plants at last count. Each named. Each cared for. The fiddle leaf is called Niem Jr. He's thriving.
A 4-meter wall of art books, design monographs, and old magazines. Pull anything out. Just put it back. Eventually.
Cork board near the kitchen. Anything inspiring goes up — pull-quotes, polaroids, fabric swatches. Refreshed every Friday.
Always one cake from someone's birthday. We never let the fridge go empty between celebrations.
Tea, instant noodles, fruit, ginger candies, dark chocolate. Take what you need. Replace what you finish.
If you need to think hard, take it to the balcony. Twenty minutes of pacing usually solves it. Backed by science. Mostly.
We use refurbished mid-century chairs from a workshop in Da Nang. Backs matter when you sit eight hours a day.
Whether you're applying for a role, scouting a partnership, or just curious — come visit. Coffee is on us.
