This Week’s Challenge Specifics:
It's a boy!
You recognize your client as soon as she waddles in. Wait. Waddles?! Is she...
Yes, she is.
And she wants you to build a new home for her, her husband, and their baby boy on the way!
"We'd love a 3 BR, 2.5 BA home," she tells you. "We're still having a hard time deciding on a nursery theme, so we're hoping you'll make the decision for us! We're debating between a robot nursery with silvery-blue walls and some punches of accent colors in maybe red or orange OR a retro nursery decorated with the toys from when we were younger and painted in primary colors. We're a little worried about too bright of a yellow on the walls, though. I've read some things about it making it hard for the kid to sleep..."
You jot down the two color schemes as she continues.
"We'd also like the rest of the home to be kid-friendly with little spots for convenience for the baby to sleep, eat and play. I like a little bit of a retro feel, and my husband likes modern. But we don't want too much glass because of safety concerns with the baby. And we want it to look homey, so not too modern, I guess. The third bedroom should be a music room for my husband, and I'll need a little office area and bookcase in the master bedroom for school work. Our current kitchen is tiny, so we'd like an area that is open to the dining room, at least. My favorite room in my current house is a screened in porch, so if you could include that, it would be wonderful. Finally, we'd like a fenced in yard for the puppies...and eventually, for baby!"
You can tell she has given this some thought. It is hard to keep up!
"Our budget isn't huge. We were hoping you could create the home for about 65K. I thought about trying to do some of the design myself, but I've been a little lost in pregnancy books, cloth diapering websites, and sewing machine manuals. So much to do and just so little time!"
You laugh. "We'll get it taken care of. At least you can check ONE thing off the list!"
She gives you a big hug before slowly making her way back to the parking lot.
