About Álom: a Perth creative studio for web design, marketing, photography and videography.
Álom helps Perth businesses stand out online and build lasting connections with their customers. Everything is planned, designed, written and shot by one person, so your website, your search presence and your images all pull in the same direction.
Meet Kia Bako-Kirkpatrick, founder of Álom.
Kia is the founder of Álom and the person you work with. He has a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in marketing and five years of professional digital marketing, photography and videography experience.
That mix of marketing training and creative skills is why Álom projects are built around enquiries, not just looks. Kia plans the strategy, writes the copy, designs and builds the website, shoots the photography and video, and checks the results, so nothing gets lost between a designer, a writer, a photographer and a marketer.
Álom is based in Inglewood and works with businesses across Perth and Western Australia, in person and online.

Our philosophy: creativity, collaboration and results
Design, marketing and visuals can change how a business is seen and chosen. These are the three ideas behind every project.
Creativity
Original ideas and real images, not templates and stock photos. Your business should look like itself and not like everyone else.
Collaboration
You are involved at every step. We share previews early, listen to your feedback and explain our choices in plain language.
Results
We agree what success looks like at the start, then track it: enquiries, bookings, search visibility and how you appear in AI answers.
Why we do what we do
Many good Perth businesses are let down by how they look and appear online. When the website, the photos and the search results are right, customers find them, trust them and get in touch. Helping a business get found and chosen is the part of the job we enjoy most.
