Alpenrose Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Omachi, Nagano Prefecture; Representative Director: Hiroshiro Takahashi) will open 'La CASTA Atelier Essential Hankyu Umeda Main Store,' a new concept store for its natural cosmetics brand 'La CASTA,' themed around 'the vitality and healing power of plants,' on Wednesday, July 15, 2026.

La CASTA Atelier Essential Hankyu Umeda Main Store

A space evoking La CASTA's philosophy: 'wearing nature' × 'the form of the earth'

The store space is composed of natural materials that cherish the warmth of earth and wood.

Materials for the interior were carefully selected not only to receive the blessings of the Earth but also to contribute to a sustainable cycle for the future.

The softly shaped counter, resembling land eroded by wind, expresses the grand beauty of nature.

The textured walls, coated with soil and plants from Omachi, Nagano—the brand's hometown—symbolize the beautiful cycle of 'plants creating soil, and soil nurturing plants.'

Scalp Counseling for Nurturing Beautiful Hair and Scalp Today and in the Future

The store introduces, for the first time in the brand's history, an 'analytical diagnostic microscope' to closely assess customers' hair and scalp conditions and recommend personalized care routines.

Staff uniforms are made from eco-friendly materials dyed with natural plant components, such as onion peels, welcoming customers with respect for nature.
