DBEL Studio, a luxury lighting brand https://www.scoopearth.com/dbel-studio-a-luxury-lighting-brand/ Sat, 28 Jul 2018 08:51:32 +0000 https://www.scoopearth.com/?p=9249 When and how did you start?

 ” I am a lighting designer and a former architect with a Bachelor’s Degree in Architecture from SSAA, New Delhi and a certificate in Architectural Studies from the AA School of Architecture, London.   While studying, I always knew that I want to launch a brand of my own which is going to be a one-stop shop for architectural as well as decorative lighting. That’s how DBEL Studio came into inception last year. I am a lover of art and I love conceptualizing unique and contemporary lighting solutions for my clients (both in residential and commercial space).  

Unconventional forms, clean lines, and alliance with modern influences are the hallmarks of my brand’s lighting offerings.  I strongly believe in sustainable ways of lighting with a focus on natural light. I have also participated in and curated numerous exhibitions to showcase her passion for art and design. I started DBEL Studio in 2017″, Says Ms. Dillraj L Bhatia Founder of DBEL Studio. 

How did you come up with the idea? Your inspiration moment

I always have seen lighting as the highlight of any interiors. But, unfortunately, it was seen as an afterthought by many. And, I wanted to change that perception of people and as a designer wanted to spread awareness of how important lighting is to enhance any space interiors and of course the psychological and the physiological impact it has on one’s mind and body. With DBEL Studio, I aim to bring the best of any space that has been designed.

 

To me, decorative lighting is like an art piece that can significantly enhance the overall look of your space and add to its allure. In all my projects done so far, I have successfully proved that how dramatically a space changes with just a change in the lighting layout.

Brief about the organization and founding members

I (Dillraj L Bhatiaam a lighting designer and a former architect who loves to translate my clients’ personality into their desired space. I did my architectural studies from SSAA, New Delhi and AA School of Architecture, London. Since my company is very new, I am not sure if I would like to talk about the core team members at this stage. However, I would like to mention about my father and brother who have supported me to build this brand immensely.

 

Mr. MPS Bhatia, my father is the rock behind the company both personally and professionally.  He started out in the electronics business with my grandfather when he was 18. From manufacturing black and white television kits to inverters and stabilizers to venturing out to a new vertical (LED lights) alongside the other products he has come a long way. He started his company KLM Electronics Pvt Ltd. which is the parent company for the brand Tintech (our LED light range). He is also the Partner in DBEL Studio.

 Yashraj Bhatia, my brother handles the production and other verticals in KLM Electronics Pvt Ltd and ensures all our material is delivered to us on time every time from the production unit.

About funding, plans on growth

I am focused on creating a brand that resonates with luxury and serves as an ultimate lighting destination nationwide.

A quote from the founder on the journey, or dealing with the challenge, or any inspiring moment.

The challenge, which we are mostly dealing with, is to carve out a place in the market with very simple yet elegant and modern fixtures. When I say the word “luxury” it brings out a different picture in the minds of every individual. For someone, it might mean a sleek brass line with linear lighting, for someone else it might mean grand crystal chandeliers with a Victorian touch. We struggle to maintain the balance between the modern designs and balancing it with the idea of luxury according to everyone’s minds.

 EXCLUSIVE: Founder’s advice to budding entrepreneurs

” I am a budding entrepreneur myself. As clichéd as it might sound but what I have learned and what I follow is that “the only way to move forward is to keep moving”. When you are starting off, it looks exciting as we never know what a new day brings, it could be complaining customers or it could be the biggest project you have worked for so far. The idea is to NEVER stop. Applaud for every success for 30 seconds and move on.  Worry about every failure for 30 seconds and move on. It is a difficult step to do in the beginning but the idea is to remain detached. And, I am still struggling with that too”, says Dillraj L Bhatia. 

Provide some statistics like revenues or clients acquisitions etc.

It’s too early to talk about revenue figures. We are still very new and revenues are not the first thing on our minds, rather building the brand is.

Introducing FINC: your Friend IN the City https://www.scoopearth.com/introducing-finc-your-friend-in-the-city/ Fri, 27 Jul 2018 10:41:11 +0000 https://www.scoopearth.com/?p=9242 When and how did we start?

 ” The GoFINC journey started in June 2017 with a sheer intention to simplify the lives of people. We both come from a software background and can absolutely understand what it takes to plan or take out extra time to arrange things in case of an event. It is really a nightmare to search for a genuine vendor online and it is not less than finding a needle in the ocean to get one as per your needs”, Says Mr. Yash Co-Founder Finc.

 Our inspiration moment

One fine day, an intern came to our company from Germany. We expected a warm welcome and hospitality for our new guest in a model city like Bengaluru. But to our surprise, he struggled like anything to find even the basic of needs like accommodation, sim card etc. Since he was new to the place, he had no idea about anything and where/whom to go for his needs. Henceforth, the idea for an assistance based settlement solution popped up.

About our organization and journey

The life today is very busy and we have got so much to do. We, as your Friend IN the City, are committed to provide affordable assistance and quality services for your settlement. While you sit back and relax, we take up all your search and research work and give you most prominent and promising options.

 We started this dream with a small project and soon realized that we wanted to create something – a service, a product, some sort of business, we weren’t yet sure but that would add value to the world. Our idea inspired two of our close friends (Rajesh and Pratik), who are now a part of our core team. We wanted to earn money by doing something we enjoy.

 It was the best thing that happened to me in my life and gave a lesson of a lifetime. In a startup, ‘YOU’ are everything. You have to be willing to start up and then do everything passionately. Here you are the designer, developer, tester, salesperson, marketing person and do whatever it takes to connect with, and make a solid impression on the right people called “customers”. Work as hard as you possibly can by providing exceptional services that exceed your clients’ expectations every single time.

 Challenges and Opportunities

Being new in the market, gaining the trust of the prospective new clients and keeping the trust of your current clients was the most challenging part of our journey. Also, while adding up new vendors we have to be careful about their authenticity and availability for the customers’ demand.

Most importantly, we must convince ourselves that life-changing opportunities will never merely “fall into our lap”. You have to have that ‘unique’ feature that makes you stand out from the crowd and work as hard as you possibly can to convince others that you’re worth their time and money. We have designed assistance based unique packages to provide a one-stop solution to customers’ be it Grih Pravesh, Marriage or Birthday, considering their need and budget.

Services:

Rental agreement

Pandit Ji

Caterer

Griha Pravesh Package

Birthday Package

Marriage Package

A quote from the founder on the journey, or dealing with the challenge, or any inspiring moment.

If you are passionate about something, Do it now. Its better than saying ‘I wish I had'(Kaash) later.

Founder’s advice to budding entrepreneurs

Starting up entails doing every job passionately rather than limiting oneself to one’s passion. Analyse what major problems exist at present and the reasons why available market solutions don’t actually solve those problems.

If you match the value you deliver with the amount of money you charge then it’s entirely possible to start earning “big bucks” in a relatively short amount of time. Whether you’re a growing business or a budding entrepreneur, you must consistently over-deliver to your clients.
