OVER ALL is a café built in Tokyo's Tabloid Building, a former printing factory converted into a mixed-use facility for work and play. Since the café is situated at one end of the buildings entrance hall, Jamo was asked to design it to be the face of the building, a place where creators gather, share a bite and make connections. Since the building's support structure was in good condition, Jamo experimented with renovating the interior with a "factory" concept. This became a way to bring to life the unique strength that buildings only get through many years of actual use as well as to bring life to an atmosphere that would engender fresh ideas and creativity. The support structure, which had become stained with oil and ink, was altered as little as possible, and the dado, which tends to enter the field of vision while dining, was cleaned up with blue paint. In selecting materials, only those associated with factories were used (e.g., aluminum and iron, clean pieces of old wood, blackboards). Old and new desk lamps used at factories around the world were affixed around the walls. Walls above seating areas with sofas were decorated with tabloid newsprint.
