The After-Hours Store

Kalpit iya’s “The Preserve”

A futuristic project inspired by memories and childhood explored the depths of an adult’s recollection. Primary research on potential clients and local psychologists together with secondary studies on virtual reality gave birth to a hologram center ‘The Mnemosyne’’. The center has research facilities on holography, entertainment holograms and therapeutic holography.

The work above are extracts from my thesis produced for this project. For in depth understanding, please refer to the Behance link on the first page.The experience lived with the girls at Darun Nusra orphanage inspired my final project to be on recollection and childhood. And bringing to life, quite literally, a memory.

Research into holographic technology, its present and past uses and other companies that sell holographic products lead to a viable explanation of using holograms for recollection. This lead to in depth analysis of the consumer groups my project may be used by.

Heavy development succeeded in producing a thematic project. I mostly studied people who have lived lives that took them places and consisted of much traveling. From this models were made, sketches produced and ideas derived. Above shows what was gathered from speaking to a potential client.

Concept models and visualizing the thought process of the clients brought me closer to a theme used in the project. Accommodation and a layout withing the structure was finalised.

A theme was finally approached after looking through a number of discarded photographs found at a garage sale. “An Afterimage” formed by a memory became what my materials used, colours chosen, shapes derived and user experience represented.

HolopodsContained spaces made for a holographic experience named Holopods were designed.

The Holodome For profit generation to support patient treatments and research, a large scale Holopod named the Holodome was designed for en-tertainment holograms. The structure was detailed and appropriate materials used such as smart-glass.


A pop up store made of three containers. It uses the local lingerie brand Midnight Divas and helps introduce a new brand image to Colombo through this temporary outlet named Midnight Divas After-Hours. The project topped the class in grade average and was praised for concept exploration mainly.

Current Brand Exploration and New Brand ConceptWhen studying the lingerie brand I learned it was failing in the market. I chose to change the current brand image of Midnight Divas and make the pop-up store bring brand awareness rather than to actually make sales. After studying history’s promiscuous women and the idea of what is “sexy”changing with time, “choosing when to reveal”appealed to me most. I decided to design the pop-up store made of containers with this concept.

New Brand Concept Studied With the Use of ModelsThe concept models were made to understand and explain the concept of the store. A name “The Toppit Effect” was given for the concept. This helped me decide on the lighting and materials used to express this concept in the design.

Lighting Model


The shelving was chosen to bring awareness to the new brand concept. A centralized display inspired by artist Michael Johansson’s work was designed. The changing space found at a top level used only light translucent screens and a Barcelona bench, for both spaciousness and the concept.

It will provide a solution through design and reliable business approach to explore what Kalpitiya is famous for; its cetaceans and its beaches. It speaks of starting a whale and dolphin observation and research centre facing the lagoon, and an eco retreat for a high-end consumer group facing the sea. The end project’s ulitimate goal is preserving Kalpitya for years to come.
