(David) Vi Boi Huynh (also known as BOI_Design on LEGO IDEAS media) is a multidisciplinary architectural and interior designer, creative concept designer, and founder of Vi Boi Studio, working at the intersection of architecture, interior environments, product design, sustainability, and imaginative model-making. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design and Architecture from San Francisco State University, graduating Summa Cum Laude in 2025.
His design philosophy is rooted in Formgiving (Danish word for design —Give form to the future), the act of shaping a more joyful, sustainable, and human-centered future through design. He advances this philosophy through his methodology, “Play in Formgiving: Play, Keep Play, and Play Well,” which embraces curiosity, free experimentation, continuous learning, and unexpected discovery as essential drivers of creativity. For Huynh, every project is an opportunity to imagine what does not yet exist and transform abstract ideas into meaningful spatial, physical, and experiential forms.
His work has received international recognition, including the Architecture MasterPrize 2025, Platinum Winner of the International Architecture & Design Awards 2026, Silver Winner of the Wonder Global Awards 2026, and Gold Winner of the New York Architectural & Interior Design Awards 2026 for Reflective Pavilion, a conceptual public installation in Yosemite National Park that explores contemplative experience, mass timber construction, and sustainable design.
In addition to his architectural work, Huynh possesses over a decade of experience in crafting physical LEGO MOC (My Own Creations) model along with extensive expertise in digital modeling. His creative achievements include winning the LEGO Ideas 2022 competition celebrating World Architecture Day and LEGO House, connecting architectural appreciation with the imaginative possibilities of LEGO building. In 2025, his Windmill House MOC project reached 10K Club Member in the LEGO Ideas community, demonstrating its resonance with an international audience of LEGO enthusiasts. His notable projects include Tet in Hoi An and Silence in Bloom, which celebrates the visual richness and festive traditions of Vietnamese Lunar New Year. Through these projects, he transforms architectural principles into detailed, practically assembleable works, bridging the gap between spatial design, storytelling, playfulness, and cultural identity.
Through Vi Boi Studio and other creative activities, he explores innovation in materials, architectural geometry, cultural narratives, and spontaneous experimentation to create designs that enrich everyday life. His work encompasses conceptual architecture, interior spaces, product design, as well as studies of Vietnamese-Chinese/European heritage. Through this, he demonstrates a commitment to transforming sustainability into a joyful, imaginative, and meaningful human experience, rather than simply a responsibility to the environment.
Tich Phung Huynh (also known as KittyJW on LEGO IDEAS media) is a Senior Designer and co-partner of Vi Boi Studio. She is also the founder of BOI Haus Magazine – a creative publication specializing in architecture, design, and art. Her practice bridges architectural design, cost management, cultural storytelling, and creative model-making, bringing together technical precision and a sensitivity to the cultural narratives embedded in the built environment.
She joined the team as a cost manager for the Reflective Pavilion project, a sustainable public space designed for Yosemite National Park. The project received a Gold Winner at the New York Architectural & Interior Design Awards 2026 and Silver Winner of the Wonder Global Awards 2026, recognizing its exploration of contemplative space, sustainable construction, and architectural expression.
She has participated in LEGO MOC projects including Tet in Hoi An, which celebrates the visual richness and festive traditions of Vietnamese Lunar New Year; Silence in Bloom; Hong Kong’s Red Taxi; Saigon Cafe; and Beautiful Island of Taiwan. She is also recognized as a 10K Club Member in the LEGO Ideas community with the Windmill House project. In her works, she combines analytical thinking, creative collaboration, and cultural sensitivity to demonstrate that design is not only a tool for conveying identity and preserving meaningful stories, but also for enriching how people experience the world around them.
