Duck and Dough, Swansea

Posted: 16th August 2024
The Background

Loosmore Property Group has been busy revitalising the shop and flats on Bernard Street/Marlborough Road in Brynmill, Swansea, with the aim of breathing new life into the area. They called Fresh Creative Co in to help! 

As part of this renovation, the shop (previously a bakery and then electrical shop) has transformed into a new café called Duck and Dough. The café is now open and operated by Max Freitas, the owner of the popular local pastry shop, Natas by Max. Max has cleverly themed his new venture to connect with the nearby Brynmill Park, which is well-known for its large pond where ducks are a common sight. 

The Mural

The local wildlife is also the inspiration behind the incredible piece that our talented mural artists have created. Mark and Phil have once again worked their artistic magic; the centrepiece of their creative effort being the stunning mural that now graces the side of the building. 

The mural features four vividly colourful ducks soaring gracefully across the wall. Each duck was meticulously crafted with over 20 different colours. The vibrant hues and intricate patterns capture the essence of the local feathered residents, making the mural a dynamic and engaging scene that bridges the urban landscape with the natural beauty of Brynmill Park. 

The Response

The community’s response to the Swansea mural has been overwhelmingly positive. Residents and passers-by have expressed their admiration for Swansea’s latest piece of public art, appreciating its strong connection to Brynmill Park and the way it enlivens the area. The piece has become a real talking point, both in person and online, demonstrating how mural art can elevate local businesses in Swansea.

By transforming ordinary walls into vibrant canvases, murals like this not only enhance the visual appeal of a business, they also serve as conversation starters. This can draw attention and spark curiosity among both locals and visitors. Such art can become a defining feature of a neighbourhood, turning a business into a landmark that people remember and talk about.
