In the Shinsaibashi area of Osaka, the city's high street district, BEAMS has a large 2-story shop that faces the area's main thoroughfare. As a concept for the design of the second floor (the men's floor) Jamo settled on the idea of "arts & crafts movement" with the aim of using handcrafted items to bring together "lifestyle" and "the arts." This is expressed in various design decisions such as the design of display fixtures and selection of materials. Since the BEAMS company uses each of its shops for a long time, Jamo constantly considers the question of "what makes a lasting store?" from the perspective of both design and durability. In this regard, there is an especial depth to the concept Jamo selected for this shop. Since BEAMS carries such a wide array of product, large stores usually require each sales area to have differentiated sense of style. However, for this store a single design concept was used for the space and different detailing was employed to fit the type of product carried in each area. In doing so, the result is a sense of differentiation created within an internal dialogue between the spaces.

大阪の繁華街、心斎橋の中でも一流のリテイルショップが並ぶ御堂筋に面した2フロアからなる大型店舗。この2階のメンズフロアは、今回、手仕事により生活と芸術を統一させることを目指した「アーツ&クラフツムーブメント」に解を得て、什器のデザイン、素材の選定をはじめとする空間のデザインコンセプトとした。BEAMSはショップを大切に長く使う。そのため我々がデザインをする際、デザイン面と耐久性の両者の面から「長く使っていけるショップとはなにか」を常に考える。そのため今回のコンセプトは非常に奥深い。通常はカジュアルウェアからドレスウェアにいたるまでの多様な商材を扱う大型店において、エリアの世界観の差別化は必須となるが、今回は、全体のデザインコンセプトで空間のすみずみまで統一しながらも、それぞれのエリアの商材にあう"ディテール(詳細)"を異なる方向で追求することにより、売り場のエリア同士の差別化を計った。
