Chest Drawers

2012-09-05T22:11:00.000-07:00

In May 2009, I got an offer to make a design with small dimensions chest drawers from Mr. Junnich Mitubori- Found Furniture Japan.
Design should use other components in addition to solid wood

After thinking a while, I decided to use glass as a complement the look.
below is an image that I created with Autocad program

After the image has been approved, I starrt the process of building with the selection of A-grade teak wood and continuous finishing color that's mix between Rattan Brown and Yellow BB from IMPRA color series.

Then I developed a few other designs

With Flora Glass

With Sandblast Glass

Most people will consider about the price first when they talk or think about solid wood furniture, especially one made from teak wood. It is not a secret that solid teak furniture is pricey among other furniture. The furniture is rather expensive compare to home furnishing made from engineered wood. However, its expensive price brings other consequence. You will get utmost quality of furniture from solid teak, durability and strength that will last more than decades or even century.

Keep up with Competitors

It is said that, in a shop that sold books, stationery, cassette, and others, in a small town. There came a visitor, middle-aged mother was carrying a note in her hand. The store employee with a friendly greeting, " good day, can I help you? "

Handing a paper in her hand, the mother said, " this is a list of items to buy, please find for me. Or where the goods and books do I need? Let me help you look for it, " said the mother while walking to a rack of equipment. Soon they start looking for the items needed.

Because the stuff she's looking for should be complete, the mother was there for quite a while. Incidentally it was the owner also was there. Because visitors are being deserted, while conversing with the mother he also helps in finding required goods the mother happily.

" I'm sorry Ma'am, we're not complete collection so you could not get it all at once here. If willing, you can search the store X at the end of this road. Hopefully there is still goods inventory. If there were none, let me know and I will order it for you. "

After done counting and paying, the mother who was very impressed with the friendliness of the service in the store says, " Thank you for the service. I have a little question, whether you not to worry because the move would be reduced subscription, with the introduction of other stores that sell items similar to the ones sold here?"

" No Ma'am, I never worried about that kind of thing. For me, being able to serve and satisfy the needs of the customer are the main ones.If it is indeed a provision being allotted to me, it's not going to go everywhere. I believe, if I feel comfortable with our service, one day if you takes such goods we sell, you will definitely visit here again. Thank you for shopping with us. I wait for sometime you stop by here again, " replied the shop owners while delivering the mother out of his shop.

Well Netter,
In this era that said " very competitive " likes today, the competition is often done with unhealthy, even to give misleading information so that our products are of interest to our customers and creating our competitor to down.
Competing in a healthy is " living in harmony with competitors " not to blocking competitors market but looking at our place for self-improvement.
In fact, it is not a competitor to compete with, but by our own standards.
Starting with the current state, Let us always settled and improve in order to be better and better day by day.

2012 focus

The Power of Focus

" If can centralize and unify all the power in one place, while the enemy primarily in ten different places, then we can use all the strength to fight a tenth army. " Sun Tzu's famous greeting is showing the importance of focus in battle.

Today we are indeed not in an atmosphere of war. But in everyday life we actually fought in a different form. Just look at the business, many people are applying Sun Tzu war philosophy for doing business like a fight in other formats. ' The enemy ' are our competitors. If we lose then we can compete ventures fail.

Where focus can be done? We can focus on an added value in our products, and then as the pre-eminent power of . In this way our maximize product will be the winner of the competition. Most real and actual examples we can see from the rise of the smartphone brand BlackBerry (BB). BB is actually going into the smartphone market is already crowded. But BB shake-off the market with innovations that communication short message — a sort of SMS-not paid inter-BB. Proven successful to slap BB ruled the market in several countries including in Indonesia.

Focus could also be done on the part of life other than business, such as career, sports, etc., so that we get better performance.

This morning I discussed the theme of ' Focus ' current Strength of Focus in television talk show. The story that I take, about an elderly wise king who wished to abdicate and bequeath his Kingdom to one of the three cubs. Of course he had to do a selection which of them deserve to occupy the throne. That he then opted for the youngest, because after going through a test, the youngest that have the ability to work with a focus. (The full Story can be seen on Luar Biasa Magazine February 2011 Edition: ' All You Need is Love ').

The story of the King above shows how the power of focus are indispensable to achieve the things we want. So, with a focus on whatever will we do, then our bodies and minds will be gushing at one point to get more results to be achieved.

Therefore, let's focus on thoughts on the best result that we dream of. And do the action and immediately stepped into the main point of focus. Faster we go, the faster we go, the target point and the closer the dream of

Mobile Shelf

2012-06-22T22:51:00.001-07:00

Try using metal components to build a form of furniture, with costs as cheaply as possible.
After look and observe what was there, I decided to choose stainless steel pipes with the diameter 2.5 cm (1 inches) by reason of such material resistant to corrosion, no need to refinishing and especially the shiny look luxurious.

The next step is to create a furniture design with the basic concept of minimalist, functional and of course must be at a cost that is cheap.
Of sketches on paper, I get form a bookshelf with a measure of detail as seen on the picture below

I use grade B teakwood because prices are relatively inexpensive with a thickness of 2.5 cm.
I choose dark colour wich is Cooffe Brown contrasts with the shiny of stainless steel, followed by using a wax coating at the end.
To add a little accent, I put 4 pieces of wheel caster which one of them using latches.
So, mobile bookshelf I already have.....

It turns out from a simple and low cost can result a form of furniture that is functional and eye catching display.

Knock Down Furniture

2012-06-21T23:11:00.001-07:00

Knock down furniture is the idea..! This time the project is a demand for my colleague Mr Matthew Flinchum, a teacher who taught at a school in Kobe City of Japan.

He wants 1 set table tea with knockdown system because it would bring him back by himself during a visit to Indonesia.

That is, design must be concise to ease in the packaging and carrying.

Design consists of two compartments, each room with 1 shelf and 1 piece board liaison between compartment.

I divided each compartment room into 5 parts component, which is:

1 piece base part
2 pieces side panel
1 piece rear panel
1 piece top part

base part

I created a groove on the base part to placement side & rear panel, so it can stand and not shift.

side panel

pres-fit connection

side panel can stand upright and it won't shift due to the groove on base part

rear panel

next step is stringing the rear panel, the connection between side and rear panel by shifting down so both positions were locked in order to revive a whole construction.

locked position

the next process is the installation of the upper part which is also using the connection with groove.

top part

complete compartment

here it looks overall compartment construction.

2 compartments and 1 piece board liaison between compartment

the last is to combine two rooms with 1 piece board liaison.

With the knockdown system this product to be concise in packaging, and of course will be very cost-saving luggage in the plane.

Thank you Mr. Matthew Flinchum has entrusted the manufacture of tea table to me.

Folding Bookrack PERDANA

2012-06-21T01:48:00.000-07:00

At one point it occurred to one question in my mind, ' is there a simple way to minimize the volume of furniture? ‘This question based upon the high shipping rates merchandise through the expedition, courier service or other delivery services. It means the bigger the goods we will send the greater the cost we spend. Not just the cost of shipping rarity higher than prices of goods itself.

Well, departing from the thoughts, this time I tried to make bookshelves design can be folded. Overall dimensions when standing open is HxWxD : 120x75x38 cm when sealed into HxWxD : 120x75x6 cm.

Compact Enough isn't it?

The material I use is A-grade teak wood that physically looks beautiful. That is why I decided to finish it with rustic color only to accentuate the fiber timber. Hinge measures 6 cm made of brass to add accent antique and shelves support using rubber coated iron. Once again, the concept I have to offer is simple and concise.

Bed Side

2009-01-26T22:41:00.000-08:00

Berawal dari corat-coret di atas kertas, desain ini saya buat lebih untuk memenuhi keinginan saya bekreasi dalam bentuk yang berbeda. Pada awalnya terlihat aneh dan tidak seperti lazimnya bentuk proporsional suatu bed side, tetapi saya pikir justru disitulah daya tarik yang ditawarkan. "Sederhana tapi manis" menjadi tema pokoknya. Untuk memberikan kesan berbeda, saya sengaja membalut dengan dua warna berbeda. Walnut Brown untuk sekujur badan dan kaki sementara warna Natural Light untuk laci. Bahan dasar masih saya gunakan kayu jati, wood stain tetap saya percayakan merk BOAS, dan sebagai pelapis akhir saya gunakan wax natural dari Impra.

TV STAND FURNITURE

2008-12-16T23:54:00.001-08:00

Bahan yang saya pakai:

- kayu jati
- woodstain merk BOAS
- wax sebagai lapisan akhir

Bed Side

2008-10-02T08:14:00.000-07:00

Berangkat dari keinginan saya untuk berkreasi pada tingkat yang lebih tinggi, maka mulai bulan mei 2008 saya mendirikan sebuah workshop sebagai tempat kerja pembuatan furniture. Project pertama saya adalah pembuatan sebuah bedside -bentuk furniture yang saya pikir cukup sederhana untuk dijadikan project percobaan- dari kayu jati. Disini bahan finishing yang saya gunakan adalah wood stain merk Boas sebagai bahan pewarnaannya, dan wax sebagai lapisan akhir. Bagaimana? bagus bukan? Dalam arti model yang cukup sederhana sekalipun dapat menjadi aksen yang menarik pada sudut kamar tidur Anda.
