Dayi Design (大亦设计) is a Chinese architecture and interior design studio founded around 2020 by Zhou Yi (周奕), based in Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province, China.
Zhou Yi studied at Nanjing University and, after further studies and professional experience abroad, returned to his hometown to develop his practice and establish Dayi Design.
The studio focuses primarily on interior design, renovation, and commercial and cultural spaces, paying particular attention to the relationship between memory, historical context, and contemporary experience. Its approach combines spatial research, reinterpretation of existing buildings, and the integration of cultural and narrative elements into the design.
Zhou Yi serves as a juror for international awards and is active in professional associations, which has solidified the studio's international visibility and reputation. She is a member of the Architectural Society of China, a council member of the Wuxi Interior Design Association, and a visiting professor at the Art Department of Jiangyin College
Dayi Design operates globally under its English name and uses the domain dae-dae.com as its main platform, which is the phonetic and graphic transliteration of the Chinese name Da Yi. The website functions as the studio's official portfolio, documenting its most representative projects and its conceptual approach.
