The loft space, located within a historic warehouse in Tribeca was designed by Michael Huynh and Glen M. Jones. Mai House has a casual, light and airy feel with hand-carved wood fixtures from Vietnam, crushed sunflower-seed walls, zebra wood banquettes, a mother-of-pearl and bamboo butcher-block bar and translucent Vietnamese lotus flower lights.
