Brief

Develop a burger brand with international reach and a franchise-based expansion model.

Nudity represents one of the most authentic states of being human—and, at the same time, one of society's biggest taboos. That contradiction connects directly with an audience looking for people and brands that feel more real, spontaneous, and free of pretension. That's where NAKED comes from.

Lucas is one of the most common names around the world, and its meaning is associated with light. We used that universality to create a character who doesn't represent just one person: Lukas could be any of us. We replaced the C with a K to give the name a more universal, international character.

But we don't explain who Lukas is. The brand leaves the question open, allowing the audience to discover, interpret, and build its own idea of him.

Inspired by “We Do What We Think,” the brand communicates authenticity, confidence, spontaneity, and boldness. Naked Lukas is against overthinking. It believes in thinking out loud and taking action—because that's the only way to find out whether something works.

NL should always be a distraction. Before doing something, the team asks: “Are we making this distracting enough?”
