Nguyễn Việt Anh, designer & developer in Hanoi

(About)

Based in Hanoi, VietnamGMT+7 ·

I’m a designer who codes, and a developer who cares how things look. For the past five years I’ve been helping studios, brands and founders turn rough ideas into identities, interfaces and products people actually like using.

(Expertise) 01 / 05

Five crafts,one mindset.

Good projects rarely fit one job title. I get to follow an idea from the moodboard to the interface to the last line of code, so nothing important gets lost in the handover.

(01) Visual Art

Visual art

Logos, brand systems, digital paintings, concept art and photography. This is where most of my projects start, long before anyone opens a code editor.

Retouching

(Prints)Some pieces leave the screen as canvas prints.

(More) More pieces, plus layer-by-layer breakdowns of how they’re made.

(02) UI/UX Design

Interface &experience

I want an app to feel obvious the first time someone opens it. That takes a lot of quiet work on flows, spacing and the small details nobody notices until they’re missing.

Figma
Design systems
Prototyping
Usability testing

Discover
I talk to users, read the numbers and look at what others got wrong, before I draw a single screen.
Define
We agree on the flows, the structure and what “done” actually means.
Design
Rough wireframes first, then polished Figma prototypes built on a design system you can reuse.
Deliver
Clean handoff files for your developers. Or I just build it myself.

Websites thatperform

I build sites with Astro and WordPress that load fast, rank well and are easy for clients to update on their own. Some of them speak three languages.

Apps you’llactually keep

I design and build my own mobile apps under ClumsyCode.Co. Small, calm tools that each try to fix one annoying thing really well.

(05) AI Applications

Intelligence,designed

I build AI into apps and into everyday workflows. What I care about most is simple: you should always be able to see what it did, and why.

Agents
On-device ML
Automation
Generative

Workflow agents
Agents that research, write, translate and publish, while a real person signs off on every step.
On-device intelligence
Models that run inside the iPhone for summaries, flashcards and image recognition, so your data never leaves the device.
Content automation
Articles, translations and SEO details written straight into WordPress, ready for someone to review.
Generative visuals
Image generation I art-direct like a photoshoot, so the results look on-brand and not obviously AI.
