Naked Duck

Tasked with crafting the next iteration of

The Naked Duck

within M-Park’s latest commercial development, the design brief was clear: create a lobby café that feels like a natural extension of its surroundings. The concept embraces cohesion, seamlessly flowing from the lobby into the café with a

carefully curated palette of materials and finishes.

The aesthetic vision is deeply rooted in locality, ensuring the space harmonises effortlessly with its environment—an inviting, sophisticated retreat that

enhances the lobby experience

while maintaining an

organic connection to its urban context.

One of the key challenges of designing within a lobby space is managing

multiple entry points

while ensuring a

seamless customer journey

. The solution? A thoughtfully planned layout with two strategic entrances, allowing for intuitive navigation, efficient queuing, and a well-defined waiting area.

Positioning the counter at an optimal location enhances accessibility, enabling patrons to

order and collect their coffee with ease

—especially during the morning rush. Cleverly integrated floor finishes and custom banquet seating act as subtle yet effective wayfinding elements, naturally guiding visitors through the space. Signage plays a crucial role in reinforcing this intuitive flow, ensuring a frictionless and welcoming café experience within the dynamic lobby environment.

The Naked Duck at M-Park: A Haven of Wellness and Connection

M-Park, the newly established precinct, is

more than just a destination

—it’s a vibrant hub designed to inspire, connect, and enrich the community. At the heart of this vision,

The Naked Duck M-Park

redefines the café experience, seamlessly blending wellness, balance, and social connection into its design.

Soft tones, natural textures, and gentle curves create a

welcoming and open atmosphere

, fostering both comfort and privacy. The thoughtfully designed space encourages organic interactions while offering pockets of retreat, making it ideal for both quiet moments and shared experiences. By reshaping conventional floorplates into flexible, fluid settings, the café invites patrons to engage, collaborate, and linger a little longer.

As an integral part of M-Park’s

Active Green Heart

,

The Naked Duck

is more than a café—it’s a

sanctuary where people can pause,

recharge, and embrace a holistic sense of well-being, both physically and mentally.
