This Week’s Challenge Specifics:
Creatures of the Night
Dark outside. Already. Winter is coming soon, and just looking at the shadowed, leafless trees makes you want to pull your sweater a little tight around you as you wait for your final client of the day.
Finally, a knock.
Kind of weird. And a little unnerving, actually. They usually just open the door and come in. But when you look, it seems to be your client.
Going to the door, you notice he looks...a little pale. There is a lot going around this time of year, you think to yourself.
He’s polite when you greet him, though. He introduces himself, nodding his head in recognition rather than taking your offered hand.
Then it’s a little awkward. He seems to be awaiting an invitation to come inside. You take a look at his pale skin again and think you can’t really afford to be sick, but there’s something so convincing about his gaze. You decide to invite him in.
Bill tells you that he and his friend, Eric, are new in town and looking for a large modern home in which to lay down some roots. They have quite a lot to spend, $275K altogether, but the budget matches the build.
Bill explains they want a 3-story, 5BR, 4BA modern home on a medium lot. On the ground floor, they want an indoor pool and party area with a kitchen area off to the side, “mostly to accommodate our guests,” he says.
Elsewhere in the home, they want a “drawing room” (kind of an antiquated term, you think to yourself) with at least an easel, chess, several book cases, and a fire place. This room seems to be the one most suited to Bill’s tastes. Eric also has a special request for a media room with a bar and a private office off of this area.
Before leaving, Bill reiterates he would like a modern home. His request is primarily black and white decor, but the two could not decide on a third color to complement the scheme, so they will leave it up to your “professional judgment,” he says. Outside, they’d like the landscaping fairly minimal. Neither cares much for flowers, and they’re really more “nighttime, indoor-types,” he explains. They both like luxurious surroundings, and they’d like all of the bedrooms to feature double beds, with the two largest ones also including a fire place.
Bill smiles the biggest smile he can without baring his teeth and nods again before walking out.
The room grows instantly warmer.
NOTES:
Medium lot=30x30 or less, for our purposes
Feel free to use Late Night objects, etc. I have made the brief neutral for those who only have the Base Game or won't be able to purchase LN for awhile.
If you buy Late Night, it looks like the vamps have a special type of bed. You can use that in the 2 main bedrooms instead of doubles.
