V.A. OSAKA, a new store of the concept store "V.A." (pronounced "vee-ay"), will open in Osaka City on December 16, 2026 (Wednesday). The store is operated by JUN Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Minato Ward, Tokyo).
A Tadao Ando Building Reborn
The new store will occupy a building designed by Tadao Ando and completed in August 1980. It is known for its circular form and gray walls. JUN has made various proposals at this location for 46 years, and the site is now being reborn as V.A. OSAKA.
A Retail Floor With a Music Cafe and Bar
V.A. OSAKA is planned as a multi-purpose store: a retail floor selling apparel and miscellaneous goods, with a music cafe and bar alongside it.
As with the V.A. store in Omotesando, Hiroshi Fujiwara is in charge of the direction of the store as a whole. Shinichi Osawa and Nobuhiro Toba, who produce "Ginza Music Bar," take part in the development and supervision of the music cafe and bar.
The retail floor is designed by Nobuo Araki of "The Archetype," and the dining floor by "cafe co.," led by Yoshiyuki Morii, an architect and spatial designer.
The store is positioned as a new base where fashion, culture, music, and food intersect, offering experiences unique to V.A. OSAKA.
