The idea of May House Timber was created by Bao Nguyen, who has been working as Mechanical Designer engineer since 2011*. In 2016, Bao got invited to finish his Honours in Production Design at RMIT university in order to enlarge his vision of design. Throughout these years of work, creation, and evaluation of many design concepts, it comes to the fascinating fact that woodworking has naturally become his greatest passion. Together with his wife Anh Nguyen, who graduated as creative art designer from LaTrobe University**, May House Timber was founded based on the concept of sustainable and recyclable materials. Once it was started as a passion, forever it will be. And since aspiration can bring joy to people, then it becomes our life mission.

*Qualification: Honours Mechanical Engineering & Production Design;
Bachelor of Aerospace & Automotive Engineering.

**Qualification: Bachelor of Creative Arts;
Diploma of Mass Media and Communication. Learn more about us and our furniture on our website 🌳https://mayhouse.com.au/🪵

😍🪵 Our Tasmanian Wormy Chestnut timber vanity!

Every single dark streak, sap pocket, and feature line tells a unique story of the rugged Australian bush. 🇦🇺🌲

Chris from CBC Custom Building is pretty amazing at bringing this room together! 🪚❤️

Come walk with us through the workshop these days.

From Sweeping Curves and Seamless Waterfall Edges,
to the striking depth of a Black Shadow Frame,
the earthy, cool touch of Stone,
to the Tasmanian handmade native timber dining table!

Every piece of bespoke furniture carries a story.

But the true soul of our work is found in the hidden places.

When you pull open a drawer or step inside a cupboard, you are met with the wild Messmate and Wormy Chestnut.

It is nature’s own signature, tucked away just for you.

Marble, gold accents, and a custom timber vanity?
Yes, please! 😍

We loved working alongside Arise Building to bring this delightful space to life.

It’s elegant, it’s warm, and we might never want to leave this room!

Morning routines just got a whole lot brighter in this Tassie winter! ☀️

Lately, our Tassie workshop has been full of stories, from Waterfall, Black Shadow Frame to Smooth Curves and Stone top!

Each one written in a different grain from
🪵the gentle giant Tassie Oak
🪵a soulful history deep, dark textured Messmate
🪵a radiant glow Blackbutt
🪵and a nature’s own artwork of Wormy Chestnut.

When the early morning light hits the workshop floor; It’s the moment the sawdust settles, and the true character of the island’s timber begins to reveal itself under the plane.
