SHISEIDO CREATIVE Co., Ltd. | Hakuten
Location:
Beauty from Within
The Hakuten agency, in cooperation with SHISEIDO CREATIVE, brought the brand essence of the luxury brand Shiseido to the fore with an impressive window display for the Christmas season: the bamboo structures of traditional wagasa, Japanese umbrellas, were aesthetically combined to form a Christmas tree. Just as Shiseido wants to bring out people’s inner beauty with its cosmetic products, the inner life of the umbrellas makes beholders pause thanks to the fascinating craftsmanship. It is an all-round coherent approach that also corresponds to the philosophies of the two involved creative companies. SHISEIDO CREATIVE, founded in 2022 and active with 93 employees, sees its mission in connecting brands and people through the experience of beauty. Founded back in 1967, Hakuten continues to inspire its international clients with new spatial installations. The 431-strong team constantly strives to appeal to people’s hearts and minds in equal measure with its communication – it aims to be a driving force that connects society with the future. Together, the creative companies have brought this touching Christmas magic to life: it combines tradition with modern aesthetics and at the same time symbolises an ancient wise saying – true beauty comes from within.
Red Dot about Hakuten
The power of actual objects and of space is very strong. I firmly believe in this impact and will continue to create spaces that truly move people’s hearts.

Beauty from Within
„Beauty from within“ entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit Kunsthandwerkern und ist vom traditionellen Wagasa (Regenschirm) inspiriert. Shiseido geht es um die Erforschung der inneren Schönheit des Menschen. Die Präsentation legt die Bambusrippen und Zierfäden der Schirme frei und zeigt damit die innere Anmut von Wagasa.
