Real life Models( Replacing manikins): They can model at the front window like a catwalk on a large stage that can alternatively be used as a concert stage to promote the shop.

o

Allow people to become the models: Create a screen instead of a window in front of the store. People get dressed in outfits they pic out and their modelling can be put live on shop window to show how H&M represents the ordinary individual. They can get a picture for free and the clothes they want and modeled they can get it for half price. The clothes they pic are from a select selection not from the whole store. ( it could be something virtual where they can try on clothes that the computer thinks look good on them, this make shopping easier so they can quickly purchase and find the right style for them; it could be a single room, they could have virtual googles on so they don’t have to change into anything.)

What type of experience do you ant to have?

Fun yet sophisticated, like they are attending a fashion show but they become the models , to show that H&M is for the people and about the average people and create an extraordinary experience instore. But there will also be a serious aspect to it in order to promote their desire for being environmentally friendly.

Themes City Life Fashion: This theme is mainly based on the location I would put my store, somewhere that is on the city and that is busy. Providing a fun and interactive experience in a busy and interactive area is something I could create. Fashion can also be categorized by themes, by looking at city style fashion I can pick out certain clothes that H&M have and create an overall theme for both the inside and outside of the pop up shop, furthermore by picking city life , the fashion can be based on that but the experienced I place in the pop up store can be a contrast to the busy and high rise life of the city to have that differentiating experience.

This is the style of clothing that people in This is the type of city These are a few ideas that I the city could wear. This atmosphere I want to try to could use to either create can help to create a limit in my store but also my pop up art store or profile of colors and project through the building aesthetics that I could use. design for the interior of aesthetics. my store.

Recycle: this theme is purely based on H&M and their mission statement. The brand is very environmentally aware and want to encourage their consumers to be so as well, they have put in place different schemes in order to draw peoples attention tot heir vision. By going by this theme I would the brand further advance their goals and inform more people about how they can be more environmentally friendly using their clothes but attract different people as they may be drawn to brands that want to help the world. This theme would run throughout the building interior but also be the creation of the pop up store.

Customer style The variation of clothing from female, to male to children shows a very similar colours style of H&M. they have a very mellow colour range that also shows bright colours however they do not over power. Their style both looks at the sophisticated and the fun and relaxing side of fashion . These colour schemes and themes are to be used in the temporary retail store to show flow between both the building interior and clothing. I also want the building to attract both the youth and the middle aged just like the fashion H&M presents.

This is a visual description of the typical fashion statements and style that are displayed by the age ranges that H&M want to attract. It also includes the things theses ages have in common, in particular social media.

Interior styles Surprisingly Stretchy Ansdorf Store A pop up store decorated with pantyhose created by Aussie design Studio Edwards Moore. It proves that recycling is cable and also coincides with H&M mission of recycling and reusing clothes. The creation was used to make a big impact with a little budget. They created a spiderwed-like installation using 154 pairs of neutral-hued pantyhose. https://weburbanist.com/2015/09/23/hot-pop-up-shops-14imaginatively-risky-retail-designs/3/

Shipping Crate Shop on the beach for H&M They sold beached inspired clothing on the beach. It was set up just like a permanent sort.

Daft Punk Pop up Shop

They create a feeling of a trip to another dimension in a shop, the shop includes various archival set pieces, robot helmets and limited edition items created by a selection of Maxfields esteemed designers. Fans come along and pose in front of iconic outfit worn at the 2014 Grammys. They sell stylized denim jackets and hipster tees, although hey are very expensive. The room was illuminated with various lights that give a sense of being in another world from the outside world, it helps to create a party like atmosphere and it intriguing to the eye.

Evaluation: After analyzing 3 different pop up shops it came to my attention that each one has a specific theme it follows, this them can either represent an identity, a way to shows a message , the surroundings one is in. as a result I will have to think of a theme that I will follow and coordinate with that of fragments and shards. The clever use of recycling pantyhose I very much liked as it flows the mission and vision of H&M being a very environmentally conscious brand.

Furthermore looking at a pop up shop H&M once created gives an insight on what they have previously done to grab the attention of the crowd, they placed an object not commonly found on the beach and successfully made it become a part of the beach, both my colour and clothing range. The daft puck pop up shop interests me as they us very bright illuminating colures to transform an individual and create and experience by doing do, I could use this technique in my own pop up shop as a way of grabbing peoples attention and creating contrast.

A birds a view: this shows the amount of space available to place the pop up shop and it close to a park which allows for the attraction of more customers and people. It is also a very public place for people to pour in. The place is close to John Lewis which attracts many people as a result can attract people to the pop up store. The stairs could also be made to be a feature and can add to the pop up.

Folding Techniques Here are a range of folding techniques that include cars and people for scale.

This is a technique to find design ideas that could potentially be turned into my pop-up shop

Cutting Techniques These are various cutting techniques that I did as a way of figuring out ways of making my pop-up shop. Creating various patterns, shapes and forms that could help me in my ideas development.

Cutting and Folding This is various cutting and folding techniques that I put in together to see what creations I could come up with to develop my pop-up shop and see weather the ideas I come up with are able to fit the brief and my brand H&M.

Pavilions I am presenting various pavilions that I took an interest in looking at as part of my ideas development process. I look account of shapes, patterns, materials and forms of each building and ideas of how I could layout my building. I used various techniques such as elevations, and looked at different perspectives to allow myself to see how the building is built and propped up as structures.

This particular structure is a very angular and uses a very regular pattern and form that is placed above the tented inside

The inside of the building follows the shape of the building and the hexagonal pattern is reflected the inside the building the interior is simple and material is relevant to the surroundings

This pavilion id very angular and stands out in a very natural environment yet does not intrude the setting but blends in with setting yet also stands out. Each strand has a different pattern and are arranged to go down in such a way that is gets smaller and narrower. The attachment of the strands is almost glues together or stuck together and they each stick each other out.

This pavilion was created my Zaha Hadid, although not very angular the building has an interesting shape and fro which helps to create space but also create various entries and exists that allow the structure to be moveable and free. There is a screen that is inside the structure that adds flare to the structure and easy to see, which I could sue in my own pop-up shop.

This structure is angular and use various materials and techniques that are used in the making of the building.

The wood id the structural basis of the building and are visible not covered entirely by the metal.

Pop-up Shops

Pop-up shops are a common thing and I researched a few that matched or were close to the image I wanted to my pop-up shop H&M by the sea side: This is a H&M pop-up shop which is a crate and place near the sea side. Crates are used for shipping and appropriate fitting next to the sea. It has been transformed into an eloquent little shop that provide beach products. Here H&M has taught me it like a theme and like relating to the surrounding as a way of not felling misplaced but has the opportunity to stand out and make a statement but also attract new customers. Further more it helps to illustrate their renewable approach.

PUMA This op-up shop represents puma and has an interesting shape and detachment. The shop seems to made out of crates, the crates are broken apart and torn and the shop itself had many intricate details and compartments that on the outside are not seen but once inside creates an adventure of discovery. The sue of the balcony also helps to emphasise the brands desire to make the customers visit more memorable to remember their visit.

UNIQLO This is a pop-up shop of a brand unbeknownst to me however I find the simplicity very intriguing as though the structure is fairly simple it still packs a punch in its ability to use mirrors to deceive the human eye and add intricacy into the structure.

Though simple patterns it is able to stand out in its very complex surroundings. The base of the structure is held up quite well.

Design Development

This is one of the ideas I came up with that incorporated all my research and considered all the variables needed to make a good pop up shop. The use of fragmented of cuboids and rectangles ties in well with my chosen architect Frank Gehry. The simplicity with my research on pop-up shops. I worked on developing my idea by considering the different components required to create a pace that is able to provide a great experience fro my customers and attract new ones. Each compartment is responsible for its individual thing and the whole structure should come together.

This is a further development of my first developed idea, showing the layout structure in mind where each divide and cuboid is responsible for different things which allows the customer id experience or see new and interesting things in each walk through.

Ideas Development 2

This is another idea I had of my pop-up shop mainly derived form my folding and cutting techniques, it includes components from Frank Gehry and a little from the pavilions that I looked at. It is a very simple yet interesting building that its components are not straight forward but are incorporated both inside and out side the building to create a sense of continuity. I looks at the different aspects of the building and broke it down into different parts

This is drawing of different elevation views of the structure and the layout of where everything could potentially lie in the building. The shop interior would have a lot of things going for it in a small space however many activities to create an experiment can be created.

Ideas Development Sketchup

After careful consideration, I chose to pursue idea 1 as it was able to carry more activities and able to fulfil the brief. I then started to experiment of Sketchup and found my initial idea had not a lot of flair as a result I decides to go back to my research and paper folding techniques, this allowed me to come up with this variation of idea 1.More complex the exterior is now more fascinating and intriguing and helps to add more to the building. I also made the building one level as a way to avoid confusion in the customer and allow for easy access, I also look some cuboids away and tilled some of them so they all did not face the same way. To get from one to the other customers will have to exist the building to renter such as one pavilion I researches. Further more the striped boulders intrude into the building that I felt crate good comradery between the building and the boulders.

This was another variation o created from the previous. It is much more smaller as I cut down on clothing space, although entertainment is still a factor. The boulders I made different shapes and sizes instead of all of them being the same. The shape and pattern of glass just like the previous I felt tied in well with the boulder ideas and they did not seem detached. The glass helps to allow much natural light and the idea to make the building fully made out of recycled materials such as glass and metal as to keep it urban but fit with H&M ideals. I did find this idea far to small for my great ambitions which led to me coming up with my final idea.

Final Idea

For this idea I went back to my sketches and rethought my approach to the building, although creating something innovative is also the agenda, I need to concentrate on creating a spce where people are able to experience the shop and all its entertainment to the fullest and as a result I rendered my idea. I added more glass in allow as much sunlight as possible as a result making it more of an open structure rather than one that seems enclosed. The metal is rugged to make it stand out frim the final trimmings of the city it is surrounded by and each cuboid is easily assessable and one can manoeuvre from one to the other with ease provided guiding lights are put in place for some ease.

The outcome is simple but I feel accommodates all the components that the brief and the company I chose require.

Model This is the model of my pop-up shop, the 7th cuboid is open as to represent the potential that the cuboid could open up to create stage and showcase performances to promote the brand.

This is the layout I would use in my structure every compartment has a specific role and function, the customer will go from room to room experiencing new activates and clothes And excitement.

Every room has to have a way of experiencing H&M in a new and innovative way. There are examples of what each room could incorporate.
