Build-N-Share Challenge#(221-222) • A Tiny Slice of Utopia
“Hmmmm, well this is certainly different”, you say to yourself as you arrive at your next clients home. You don't normally make house calls, but you had to make an exception to your own rules when the request came in. As you walk around the sleek exterior and try to locate the front door. Without warning a plumbot appears at your side “Mr Smith is expecting you.” The speech seems too real to have been made mechanically and you find yourself wondering what else you might find in Oasis Landing.
He waves his hand at what looks to be a regular stucco'd wall and a door way appears as if from nowhere. You are guided into a large reception area which is sparse but the furnishings are incredible, so sleek and modern.
“Mr Smith I presume.” You say to the gentleman sat at one of the couches that looks to be floating in thin air.
“That is correct.” He replies. “I want to thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to meet with me here.”
“It really was an offer that I couldn't refuse.”
“Can I offer you any type of refreshments? I have a good store of nectar in the cellar.”
“Thank you, but no, I would like a glass of water though.” As if by magic the bot appears at your side once more with a glass of chiller water.
“So I understand you have relatives in Sunset Valley.” You state as you sit down on another “floating” couch.
“In a round about way, you could say so, yes. That is why I have commissioned this project, I wish to have a base in Sunset Valley from which I can look into my family's history and the such like.”
“I can understand that. Now tell me about the sort of building that you would like me to design and build for you.”
“I want a small home, as you can see I am used to top quality furnishings, but I understand that these sorts of things aren't readily available in Sunset Valley, but I do want a very modern, minimalistic feel to the whole thing. That is one of the reasons I have asked you to design something on a 10x10 plot. I will only need one bedroom and bathroom, and somewhere to set up my computer, I would prefer this to area to be separate from my sleeping quarters. The usual kitchen area, with somewhere to eat and relax. And that about covers it.”
“And your budget for this project.” You ask.
“I think that you should be able to come up with something respectable for 23.500 Simoloeons, I didn't get to where I am today by wasting money.”
“I am sure that we can come up with something suitable in the time frame Mr Smith.”
“I'll have my plumbot see you to your transport.” And you feel that you have been summarily dismissed.
