French - Vietnamese Fussion

Le Garçon is a love letter to French-Vietnamese culture—part bistro, part brasserie, with a side of Saigon sunshine. It’s colonial nostalgia softened by teal hues, rattan texture, and unapologetically charming details.

The Challenge

Making the space feel like it had always been there. The balance between polished and patina'd had to be just right—curated but never too perfect. It had to feel like the walls could tell stories.

What We Loved

This project let us blend French formality with Vietnamese warmth. There was elegance in the symmetry, but also a looseness—chipped walls, playful murals, and cheeky charm. The floor tiles, the classic bistro chairs, the layered textures... it’s a space that feels lived in, not staged.

Secret Detail

That little pigeon? He knows something you don’t. The murals where painted with wit and subtext, they playfully nod to both French colonialism and Vietnamese pop culture.
