We have started Dream Accent for about half a year now and we have not done any vigorous marketing for our company yet. All the clients whom we have dealt so far were either from friends or referrals. Another words, we are quite passive in terms of our marketing. There was a constant flow of projects and we focused on completing them. Some projects took about 2 weeks some 1 month but the longest was half a year. So we didn’t see the need for us to find sales.

Now that we have completed all of our projects and successfully developed our very own Content Management System (CMS), so what’s next?

September is another busy month for us: from solving existing client’s problems to accepting new projects. Jakarta office has begun its operation earlier this month as well. It was a real challenge but it was good. Currently, we are developing our very own version of online Content Management System (CMS). We name it “First Rave”. Hopefully, the first version of our CMS could be completed in a week time.

We thought we were a little ambitious to develop our own CMS (as there were only 2 person working on this project) but we decided to start small and simple anyway.

Recalling the previous Jakarta trip I had last year, I went to a showroom of a high class apartment. Below are the images:

It’s posh, isn’t it? Anyway, that was just a sidetrack. When I toured around the master bedroom, there was a little white book lying on the bed. “IT’S NOT HOW GOOD YOU ARE, IT’S HOW GOOD YOU WANT TO BE”, that was the title and it’s simple enough to make me want to grab the book at The Borders.

It’s been a long time since this blog has been updated. My team was busy completing our client’s project and I was back in Indonesia to find an office space as well as hiring people to work with us. Finally, it has all been settled.

Currently, our space is located at Menara Thamrin (Jakarta - Indonesia). Although it is located at one of the most prestigious space in Jakarta, our office is pathetically small and not very conducive. We are sharing the space with a travel agent and we really want to thank them for lending us a few table space to do our work.

Seen it? Well, let us work hard and we shall have our very own beautiful office soon (like Google or Pixar office) Or even this:

It’s been a while since this blog is being updated. We were busy on a few small projects and werer going through a few of ups and downs (that’s life, isn’t it?). On 27th June 2008, we mentioned that we were doing a project for a respectable and prestigious Singapore’s organization. Now that we have completed the project, we are so much relieved and finally, we can disclose the name of the organization. You might have noticed in our portfolio that a new design for Singapore Air force Open House has been uploaded. We are proud to say that we have completed the project. Thank You Lord…

As I have traveled backto Indonesia, I explored Bandung and the place of interest. This is what I’ve found.

“Tankuban Perahu” by Jourdan

Tankuban Perahu is an active volcano 30 km north of the city of Bandung, the provincial capital of West Java, Indonesia. It’s a great place: brilliant view with perfect weather! You can actually hike or ride to the edge of the crater to view the hot water springs upclose (that’s what I did).

We love everything that is good: “good design, good idea, good concept…” Eventually, we decided to give ourselves a chance to offer our design service to the world.
