BNS: 184: New Beginnings, Again
After over ten years, your architectural firm is bursting at the seams. Many employees have come and gone, and you miss every one of them. But with spring came a new idea—a new building! Things have been hectic, so you are only now getting to your own project as the leaves are turning and beginning to fall off the trees outside your window. Your fresh start will be a chilly one now, but a refreshing change all the same!
A reception area and waiting room is a must. Aside from your own large office, you will need at least six smaller offices for your assistants. Two large meeting rooms and a general office area with at least another four work spaces are needed, plus a break room and bathrooms. If the building is more than one floor, bathrooms should be included on every floor. A parking lot, landscaping, and an outdoor break area should be included. And, for those crazy workdays and nights, a small apartment to crash in when working overtime.
You also need some new employees. Choose your new assistant from the following candidates! Whichever sim assistant is used most will become the new assistant for all the ongoing projects!
Sim Assistant Candidate 1:
Rochelle Brockwell
Mature Adult
Loves books and bridal magazines, has an eye for decorating

Sim Assistant Candidate 2:
Wilbur Karamazov
Young Adult

Just put finishing touches on my build (and it's 5am here), hopefully I can make the submission in time if Imgur doesn't act up :) I might be a little bit late if it does though.
My computer just went kaput 😱😭 This build has just been cursed for me from the start. I think I know what the issue is and should be able to get a replacement part tomorrow, but that's too late :(
For the record, I had chosen Wilbur Karamazov as the assistant.
Maybe I'll post the build in the discord or somewhere for fun once I recover my computer.
