Hi, I’m Du Nghiem (b. 2003, Hanoi). I’m a Master of Architecture candidate at Rice University.
I graduated from Yale College in May 2025 with a B.A. in Architecture and Psychology, earning distinction in both majors.
I love desire paths, hammock naps, palm reading, sending postcards, and the cold feel of concrete. I am interested in memory preservation, mapping and counter-mapping.
I hope to design with curiosity, courage, and care.

Academic Project
Spring 2025, Yale College
Instructor: Daisy Ames
A retrofitted Citroën H travels throughout the Salton Sea, Palm Springs, and Greater Los Angeles area. Each month, a new artist-in-residence boards the truck to share traditional textile techniques from their culture through community workshops. The truck docks at a fiber/ textile research and processing facility for material exchange and field-to-factory integration.
At the heart of this initiative is the creation of a community quilt - a collaborative, growing artifact that weaves together stories, memories, and craft. Inspired by quilting circles, the project foregrounds collective making as both cultural preservation and social infrastructure.
