Build-n-Share Challenge #165-166 • Two Modern Guys
As you settle into your seat for a day of meetings and site visits, you notice Rose smiling while carrying a weird metal orb with what looks like arms coming out of one side towards your office. She enters with a smug look on her face. "Rose what do you have?" you ask. With a condescending look that only Rose has, she gives you a quick remark "a special gift for you from your next appointment as inspiration for their request" she quips!
Your curiosity peaked by this strange gift, you tell Rose to usher them into your office. She leaves with a look of a woman on a mission.
You take a quick peak at the orb she has placed on your desk and notice that it is not arms but pieces of multi-colored stained glass that forms rays coming from one side of the orb. You also notice the orb is made up of different metallic textures that hold and bend the light. You wonder what this interesting piece of artistic inspiration holds for your meeting.
Rose beeps you on the intercom. "Mr. Lothario is here!" You wonder why Don Lothario is here. Has he finally settled down and needs a home?
Rose opens your door and ushers a young man into your office. This young man is definitely not Don Lothario. He is tall and muscular but not overly. He has light brown hair and deep sea green eyes. He holds out his hand, " I am Seine Lothario! It is very nice to meet you!"
You reply," Hello Mr. Lothario! How may I help you today?" He states" I am here today because I am moving here to Sunset Valley from Bridgeport with my roommate, Max Koffi. He could not be here today since he is having a showing at the Twinbrook Art Museum! We need something modern and industrial that will meet our artistic needs!"
"Modern and industrial! Is there anything more you would like in this home?" You ask. "Yes!" he adds quickly! "We want a lot of textures-brick, metals, concrete, cinderblocks-all the things that bring to mind a gritty, industrial look. But we also want clean lines preferrably with a lot of leather and chrome. We need two bedrooms both with full sized beds! At least one bath but if you can fit more than go for it. The main goal for this home is we need an art studio , well a combination art studio and sculpting studio. You see I love to sculpt and have a pretty lucrative career and Max is a promising painter and artist."
As you continue to talk, Seine fills you in on more of his and Max's requirements for their new home.
As he finishes you say, "Mr. Lothario, I think we can have what you and your roommate need in about two weeks." He looks quite shocked as he replies, " Thank you! I hope you can. I have heard great things about your firm from my uncle Don!" With that he heads out the door with the Lothario swagger you have come to know!

Budget: $61,000
Two Bedrooms both with double beds with at least one bathroom
plus the usual living/dining/kitchen areas
A one car garage
Modern and industrial exterior and interior-Lots of brick, concrete, cinderbloc, metals, leather
