K2LD is proud to announce that Lane 23 has been shortlisted in the 2025 INDE.Awards under The Social Space category. Located in Kuala Lumpur’s vibrant TRX district, Lane 23 is a nightclub and café that redefines Malaysia’s nightlife by seamlessly blending mid-century nostalgia with contemporary sophistication.
The venue’s design features rich walnut timbers, amber glass, and plush velvet upholstery, creating a luxurious yet inviting atmosphere. A standout ceiling installation combines acoustic functionality with aesthetic appeal, while custom perforated walnut screens and red acrylic accents add depth through dynamic light and shadow play.
Guests enter through a bronze-mirrored foyer illuminated by ambient lighting, leading to a dramatic descent via an 11.5-metre light installation and a plush velvet staircase. At the heart of Lane 23 lies an intricate Rosso Levanto marble bar topped with a kinetic light installation, surrounded by faceted mirrors that amplify the lively atmosphere. VIP areas feature ribbed banquettes and layered textures for an intimate experience, while the parlour reinterprets the disco ball with reflective amber brick walls and a striking pendant centrepiece.
This recognition celebrates our commitment to creating spaces that foster connection, storytelling, and community through thoughtful and immersive design.
