Yap Ah Shak House is more than just a place to work – it’s a destination for those who appreciate space, subtlety, and substance. We speak to those who have moved past the hustle and now want a space that reflects their pace, values, and lifestyle. And above all, for those who want to do business beautifully.

 

Set in the heart of Kuala Lumpur's heritage district, Yap Ah Shak House is an address where meaningful work, curated connections, and quiet luxury converge. We are designed for those who value presence, privacy and purpose. And at the heart of it is genuine hospitality – where service is attentive without intrusion, and familiar without presumption. 

 

Unlike a conventional office space, Yap Ah Shak House doesn’t follow a one-size-fits-all model. Every detail — from catered meetings to business lunches and your private workspace — is designed with thoughtfulness, not templates. 

 

Members have the luxury of moving fluidly between quiet lounges, art-lined offices, event salons, private rest pods, and dining venues that double as spaces for connection and creation. Whether it’s a solitary drink at Terrasse, the rooftop champagne bar with skyline views; a casual business lunch at Osteria Gamberoni, our breezy fresh pasta kitchen and Italian grill; or post-work drinks at Kiku, a jazz kissa and vinyl bar with Japanese craft beer — every venue is built for both focus and flow. Members can host elegant dinners at Brasserie Alma, a brasserie offering live jazz and French comfort cooking; recharge at the tea salon, Botanical Arts Society; retreat to Kapitan’s Club, our whisky lounge with a Straits inspired food menu; or host functions at The Drawing Room, our private events and gallery space. 

​

Workspaces come with 24/7 building access through four-tier security, individual climate control, openable windows, and WELL Building Standard-compliant infrastructure throughout — providing a built environment that ensures you perform at your creative best.

Curated. Intimate. Inspiring. Genuine. The four words that define the spirit of Yap Ah Shak House. We are not a coworking space, but a destination for belonging; a business address designed to inspire and engage.
