The project
NC Design & Architecture designed J.A.M., Joint Asian Market, in Hong Kong as a modern take on the colour and craft of Southeast Asia's night markets. Led by director Nelson Chow, the 1,500 sq ft restaurant was completed in 2021.
A grab-and-go market zone has a backlit green ordering kiosk inspired by plastic market crates and a coral plaster pick-up counter. Beyond a curtain, the sit-down Culinary Theatre has a semi-open kitchen beneath a colourful woven canopy, with blue and green strings echoing it along the banquettes.
