Build-n-Share Challenge #26 #26 The Novelist “Jade! How lovely to see you!” you exclaim. Going to the grocery store is always fun for you. You run into everyone at sometime or other it seems. In this case, it's literally. “Sorry for bumping your cart,” you apologize. “Its okay,” the woman smiles back at you with lips painted wine red. “However you have the wrong sister.” You step back, studying her. Emerald green eyes glitter in amusement at you, a deeper warmer look than Jade’s pale green business like stare. Instead of being pulled stylishly but efficiently back from her face, the sister’s raven hair curls romantically around her face and over her shoulders. Her dress, made of a rich burgundy velvet, is casually and elegantly Gothic in style. Otherwise, she’s identical to Jade Bloodclaw. “I’m sorry,” you say sheepishly. “Not at all. Being identical twins, it happens all the time.” She moves her cart to the side to let someone else get by. “My name is Fire Bloodclaw.” You shake hands with her, introducing yourself. Then a light bulb blinks on. “Fire Bloodclaw? The novelist? The one who wrote Empire of Jade?” She laughs a throaty laugh, “The same. You’ve read it?” “I haven’t. My assistant however raved about it. What brings you to town?” “Change of atmosphere.” She smiles, “I was actually hoping to run into you at some point. My sister is delighted with the work you’ve done for her; and, trust me, Jade is incredibly hard to please when it comes to work.” “Great to hear,” you smile, pleased at the compliment. You look around the store, realizing it was no place for a meeting. “Do you know Purr’s café?” you ask. “Who doesn’t?” Fire laughs. “Why don’t we meet there and talk about what you’re looking for?” you suggest. “Sounds great. Give me an hour to finish shopping?” An hour later, the two of you are settled into one of the booths at Purrsia’s place. Unsurprisingly, there is a tray of blissfully delicious tapas sitting between the two of you. Fire smiles, “I knew Purrsia when I was in college. She and her sister lived in the same house we did. She did all the cooking to help pay for her rent. It was lovely.” You grin, “I bet you ate better than the ramen noodle diet I lived on.” Fire laughs, “If you didn’t mind being an experiment for new recipes, yes…But the experiments didn’t always work out. Those were the nights when Tums were greatly in demand.” She smiles, “Now, on to why I was hoping to talk to you.” “Someplace to store your Tums?” you quip, making her chuckle again. “Not quite. I’m looking for a home of my own. I’ve been living with Jade, but her apartment really isn’t my style. She’s the penthouse apartment kind. I’m more the secluded dramatic type.” “So what kind of house are you looking for?” You pull out your ever present note book. “Something with a beautiful view. Private. When I lose myself in my work, I hate being distracted by petty things like time of day or last time I ate something. It needs to be soothing…and, I shamelessly admit, fairly luxurious in terms of comfort. I never know where I’ll end up writing. I need at least 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. And if you can squeeze it in, a new computer. State of the art please. My old one fried itself this morning, and I’m using Jade’s computer…something else that is not conducive to concentration. I'll need a decent entertainment center, and, of course, a library. I love stories in all forms.” “None of that is out of reach. Can you give me two weeks?” “Sure. I have a book tour coming up soon anyway. Oh, and I have 75,000 saved for this build.” “Excellent.” You reach for the check, only to have her lightly bat your hand away. “My treat,” Fire insists.

Build’n’Share Challenge #31 Fall Designer ShowdownYou are sitting your desk, idly looking out of the window at the fall leaves making their slow descent in the light autumnal breeze when your computer pings with a reminder.“Oh Shoot.” You think to yourself, “What have I forgotten now?”Glancing at your screen you see it is actually an email, you really must ask, Rose to change the notification sounds on your new PC. And to let you know what each one actually means.The title of the email reads “Calling all Builders, Architects and Designers.”“Hmm, well, I am certainly included in that group.” You think as you scan for the sender. You have learnt not to randomly open emails from just anyone after your last PC was infected with some sort of Trojan Bunny. You were just happy that Rose had thought to backup all your important documents to the cloud.“Ah, it’s from the Designer’s Guild,” you say out loud. Rose pokes her head through the door.“Is it that time already?”Wondering how she heard you with the door closed, you realise that your intercom had been left open after you asked her to bring your last client in. You say a word of thanks that you have been in relative silence and contemplation since.“Yep Rose, it’s a bit late actually. But there are still leaves falling so we get to have our Fall Designer Showdown.”Rose smiles, “You know these are my second favourite types of commission?”“Really?” You ask her, a little surprised.“What is your favourite?” “Well, that would be telling,” she says as she closes the door with a smirk.On the property itself, you will find these 4 items:You will choose ONE of these items to use as your inspiration to decorate and furnish your house. In the end, when the judges look at your media, they should know which item you chose just by looking at the way you decorated and furnished. Please also include the object you chose somewhere in your house and be sure to have it in a screenshot (unless you choose the bear gnome from Outdoor Retreat and don’t yet have the Game Pack). You can delete the objects on the lot that you didn't choose as your inspiration and the wall piece used to hold the painting. You also cannot duplicate the item (use it more than once on the lot) that you do use as your inspiration.This is the house!This image has been resized to fit in the page.

I also was researching modern mid-century interior design aesthetic, decor, and color pallets. Everything seemed to be different shades of brown and white with wood and stone accents so I tried to stay to the theme, but I made the bedroom a little more colorful since I didn't want the entire house to be only brown and white. The landscaping is simple around the home, but since Hope is a loner I created a path for her to walk in nature when she wants fresh air and inspirationAnglin. Since she is maxed in the handiness skill, I figured she liked tinkering so I placed a wood crafting table for her to use as well as using the space in the hallway as a small art studio since she is creative as well.CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Yes.CREDIT FOR CC/RECOLORS: None.FORUM ID: Kilra0ORIGIN ID: Kilra0LEVEL: Established / ExpertLOT: Mid Century Caprica V1LOT COST: $2,000LOT NAME: Garden Essence (Foundry Cove)BUILD COST: $97,977TOTAL COST: $99,977LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: hereENTRY DETAILS: "The Caprica" (first house) I didn't manage the roof either but I loved the floor plan.

This seemed like a good size for a mean loner. I doubt she would be entertaining many people and clearly had, had enough of household maintenance, (“Let Hope fix it.” I am getting sick and tired...), so I gave her something simple and easy to manage with Gnomes to make life easier. For her creative side the house traits also include Home Studio and Natural Light. Given Hope's handiness, I did give her plenty to do a fishing pond, swimming pool, Bonsai tree, musical keyboard, guitar, chess, yoga mat, painting easel, and a computer of superior quality for writers. I tried to duplicate the exterior as faithfully as Sims 4 building would allow. The interior was created after a study of many interiors found in houses built in that style. What did seem clear to me is that wood paneling was all the rage in houses like the Dunland. Ceiling lighting is to one side because, true to the Dunland design the Kitchen and living area have vaulted ceilings. Sims 4 does not permit hanging lights from the second story and any attempt to do so leaves them hanging in mid air. The alternative was to leave a small partial ceiling and place a light on the opposite vaulted wall. The kitchen is laid out in a similar fashion to the floor plan in the article. I did include a kind of "pantry" and a sort of "linen closet". I would have loved a fireplace but that would put a chimney on the roof where there clearly was none in the pictures of the house. I have allowed for all possible creative pursuits because Ms. Potts expressed diverse interests. Clearly she would prefer to put her handiness to use for her own pleasure, now.CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Yes, AlwaysCREDIT FOR CC/RECOLORS: N/AFORUM ID: PallypooORIGIN ID: PallystyleLEVEL: EstablishedLOT: Darling DallasLOT COST: 6,000LOT NAME: Umbrage ManorBUILD COST:90,210TOTAL COST: 96,210 (When placed ingame it says it is 99,920.

I felt it had more space than the smaller one bedroom and I wanted to make the garage her art studio. I decorated in a colorful mid-century style and placed some art work I felt went with the style. I stuck to the floor plan as well as I could to get the same look. I did make one pantry a half bath as I felt it would be nice to have one close to her art studio. The 3 smaller bedrooms are sparsely furnished as I felt being a single sim, who was a loner, she would not have much use for them at the moment, and I wanted to spend most of her funds on the main parts of the house she would be living in. I did have the more expensive appliances but had to replace with cheaper ones but the color looks better in the home, so it worked out. I tried to keep in mind her loner trait so she only has a small dining table, but there are bar stools at the counter and a table outside if she ever feels like entertaining.

Two guest bedrooms should any guest be invited to spend more time or they can be used for an expanding family.

It's not perfect, but it's what I got!I decided to add a pool area and added some hedges to provide some privacy. Hope can also enjoy eating or lounging outside on the back patio. For the interior I tried to go for a more crisp Scandinavian style. I have kept fairly true to the plan for the interior, including the laundry room. I did however make one of the bedrooms into a study, as I felt Hope as a loner would benefit more from that than having 3 bedrooms. As for the garage I tried to create it as a crafts room, but still have it look like a garage that can still be used (if she cleans up that is). The small cabinet on the wall by the door is meant to be an electrical cabinet (that's often in garages right?). The garage has all of Hope's painting equipment, but also a work bench for her to be doing repairs and such.CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Yes pleaseCREDIT FOR CC/RECOLORS: None, CC freeFORUM ID: SyddyB206ORIGIN ID: SyddyB206LEVEL: EstablishedLOT: Mid Century Loner https://tinyurl.com/y868lb2fLOT COST: 2,500LOT NAME: Potter SplayBUILD COST: 82,162TOTAL COST: 84,662LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOWhttps://flickr.com/photos/151014722@N05/albums/72157689256249791ENTRY DETAILS: Lovey lot with lush landscaping!

For Hope I molded it around the few things we already knew about her.In my story, Hope lost her mother at a young age. She was never able to accept the loss, and carrying the resentment gave her a mean streak, and she started keeping to herself becoming a loner. In her solitude she often finds peace in her creative outlets, such as writing and painting.Because of what happened to her mother, Hope always wanted to build a home to honor her and all the good times she remembers growing up. She even started preferring to dress in 50's style clothing, feeling it bringing her closer to her mother's memories.

Build-n-Share Challenge #1 - Building Firm and Representative

This Week’s Challenge Specifics:
This first week’s challenge actually consists of two projects - creating a sim and home office or community office lot. You must create a sim that will be your designer throughout the challenges as well as an office for your Sim to work out of.

The Sim:
Create a representative for your building firm. This may be a “simself” or a pretty face for the public. Your sim may be uploaded with the lot or separately (from the sim bin).

The Lot:
Create your building firm. It can be a community lot or “home business.” It can be as big or small as you want on whichever size lot works best for you. You may also choose the style of your building (ie. ultra-modern, country, etc). Also create a name for your firm. This is the name we will associate with you and all of your builds in the Build-n-Share challenges. You should include this name in the description of your lot when you upload it to The Exchange.

Design Brief:
-Create a sim or simself to be the face of your Sims 4 interior design company.
-Create a community lot office or home office for your sim to work from.
-Show pictures of your sim in the office setting.
-There is no budget for this challenge - let's see how creative you can get and make the most of the new build tools and buy options :D

Build-n-Share Challenge #2

Curtis. Douglas Curtis… The Third.

It was the sound of unending barking that drew you back to the surface, away from the depths of the design you were working on for an architectural magazine. As the creative fog lifts from your brain, you realize you recognize the sound of that bark. Its Rose’s little dog. Weird. Usually the dog is very quiet and never barks at people. With a sigh you get up to go see why the barking hasn't been stopped yet.

Stepping to the doorway, you see a tableau that makes you pause.

Rose is sitting at her desk, looking like she’s struggling to maintain her “meet the client” friendly composure. Leaning against her desk, flashing a charming smile, is a man you vaguely recognize from a magazine cover. Rose’s little dog has deserted her usual post to back into a corner where she can see everything and bark at this new human male. “Rose?” You inquire uncertainly, concerned.

The look on Rose’s face as she looks over at you is one of blissful relief. You however, only hear the honking of a horn and the screech of tires that comes with being thrown under the bus. “Wonderful timing! Mr. Curtis here was just telling me what kind of house he wants!”

‘Curtis…Curtis…Oh no…’ You think, realizing who he is.

Douglas Curtis the Third, famous adventurer, explorer and vaguely associated with Archaeology. His tall, khaki wearing and very broad shouldered presence graced more than a few of the magazines you've seen. Many a young lady has sighed over his chiselled good looks, thick sun bleached blonde hair and deeply tanned skin. His charming and schmoozy personality has enjoyed a lot of TV coverage and there seemed to be no end to the self propagandizing articles about his exploits.

Forcing a smile on your face, and responding to the demands of friendship, you hold out your hand. “Mr Curtis. Its nice to meet you. Why don't we go back into my office and talk about what you’re looking for?”

With a wink and a charming smile, he tilts his head in Rose’s direction. “Think I already have.” Fortunately his eyes are on you so he misses the roll of eyes that Rose gives. “Anyway, what I've got in mind is actually a number of challenges for the right architect. Starting off with a new home. I'm moving to Willow Creek and I want a home worthy of being my home base. I've been all over the world so I don't have any real style preferences, just something that will showcase my artefacts, finds and trophies. Money inst really a problem. But something…penthouse like. Perhaps 2 bedrooms, including the master suite. I throw a lot of parties so the place has to be impressive…Great kitchen, formal dining, office, living room…if there's a balcony it needs to be set up for entertaining…”

“Sounds rather detailed Mr. Curtis. Does it need to be an apartment?” You ask, jotting notes down on the pad of paper Rose handed you.

“I hadn't really decided but you know what? The more I think about it the more I like the idea. Yes. I’d like it to be a penthouse.”

“Okay. What about budget?”

“Would 150K be too modest?” He tosses a wink at Rose.

“I think we can put something together in a couple weeks for you.” You say, trying to draw his attention back to you.

He straightens up and shakes your hand, “Great. I'm headed to Al Simhara tomorrow anyway. Cant wait to see it when its done.” He hands a card to Rose, “But if you want to get that drink I’ll put off my trip for you…” Gives another blindingly white smile, before he lets you show him out.

Returning to Rose’s desk, you pick up the card and study it. Then turn and offer it to the approaching dog. The little animal sniffs it, lets out a short growl, then snatches it and runs out the door. You both go to the window and watch as the little dog digs a hole and buries it, leaving you both helpless with laughter.

Requirements:
Penthouse
2 Bedrooms
Full Master Suite
Balcony
Formal Kitchen and Dining
Ready to entertain
150k budget

Note: This build just has to be built in the style of a penthouse, so an entrance lobby etc...

Requirements:
Penthouse
2 Bedrooms
Full Master Suite
Balcony
Formal Kitchen and Dining
Ready to entertain

Optional Challenges:
Sim: Douglas' aspiration is, unsurprisingly, to be a mansion baron, and one of his traits is romantic, the rest, as they say, is up to you!

Room: Create the ultimate balcony (outdoor area) for Douglas to be able to entertain his guests. The budget for this part of the challenge is 25K

He was so well described that I felt like I 'knew' him and had a blast poking (gentle) fun at him. Some of my picture captions began venturing into 'story territory' so lol, feel free to disregard my goofy commentary and thanks for letting me play with your character.

Build-n-Share Challenge #3

The Olsen's

It was with much stifled, exasperated laughter that you accepted the profuse thanks of Douglas Curtis. The ever faithful (and merciless) Rose spent most of that interview pretending to be completely oblivious towards the hints and suggestions for dinners or drinks. Finally, after managing to cut the schmoozing and posturing short, you shut the door behind him and lean back against it. You lock eyes with Rose and both of you let out a deep, relieved sigh.

“Close up early?” You ask.

“Drinks?” Rose responds with. You smile and turn to lock the door.

Barely have your fingers touched the deadbolt lock than you see a man and a woman coming up the walk. “Drinks are on pause Rose. Clients.” You grin, hearing Rose’s muffled profanity, then open the door graciously for the couple.

They look startled, then smile back. The woman strikes you as a very warm and friendly person, with sunny blonde hair and bright blue eyes. “Oh! How nice!” She says in a playful voice. Her husband smiles, “Great welcome.” Already balding and possessed of a close cropped bead, his eyes are just a blue and project a calm steadiness that make you feel like you’re reunited with an old friend.

“Thank you. Please come in.” You shut the door, then introduce yourself.

“I'm Don and this is my wife Judy. We’re here for a house.” He says.

“Great! Lets go back to my office.” You say, leading them back.

After many compliments on the interior decorating and the layout, Judy settles into her chair, folds her hands in her lap and then gets right to the heart of it. “Don and I are wanting a custom house. We've decided that since we’re going to spend the rest of our lives here in Willow Creek, we want something exactly right.”

“Define ‘exactly right’.” You request, taking notes.

“Well, we both like colonial architecture, so that's what we would like for the exterior and the landscaping. But inside, we love modern interiors. My favorite color is blue and his is brown.”

“Minimum of 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and one half bath…but if you can put more bedrooms in that would be great.” Don interjects. “With a soaking tub. My hobby is woodworking so if you could put together a nice workshop for me that would lovely.”

“None of that sounds like an issue.” You say confidently.

Judy smiles, “Well, there is one more thing….”

“Okay.”

“Our parents are going to be coming out in a month. His mother and father and my mother. All three are retired, and they don't always get along. So rather than build on a wing or two for them, we've decided on separate houses. But we’ll get into that later. Lets just say we need a nice large lot and our new house to be positioned with that in mind.”

“Can do. What's my budget for this build?”

“Well, we were thinking about $100,000.” suggests Don. “That enough?”

“Sure. Will 2 weeks be soon enough?”

“Sure.” He stands up, holds out his hand. “Cant wait to see what you make.”

“Me too!” Judy chimes in, also shaking your hand before being escorted out by Rose.

You jot down a few more notes before Rose comes back, chirping “Doors locked!”

“Then lets go!” You say, grabbing your jacket.

Requirements:
•Large lot 50x50 (use the Oakenstead plot in the Sage Estates area)
•2 Beds
•2.5 Baths (with at least one actual bathtub)
•Colonial Architecture
•Modern Interior
•Colonial Landscaping
•Woodworking Shop
•100k budget

Optional Challenges:
Sims: Make Don and Judy, Don's Aspiration is perfectionist and Judy is active, the rest as they say, is up to you.
Room: Make Don's woodworking shop, the budget for this one room challenge is 15k.

Build-n-Share Challenge #4

#4 A Ghostly Design

You sit staring out the window of your office, “Could that possibly just have happened?” you ask yourself. As you look down at your notebook, you find that the notes you took during your last meeting haven’t disappeared into thin air, so you suppose it must have.

“A small home, like this can’t be that difficult to build surely?” You think as you ponder your client, the most unusual client you have come across in your time as an architect and designer. “So, he’s a ghost?! That doesn't change the outline of the brief does it!?” Shaking your head you get up from your desk and stretch your legs, you hear Rose typing away in the reception area and pop your head around the door. “Any chance of a coffee?” You ask her, thinking surely some caffeine will help you get your head around the situation. As you turn back to your desk, you hear a small noise from the seating area.

There sat your client, again appearing as if from nowhere! You make a small girlish gasp, and immediately feel incredibly stupid. “Mr Green!” You exclaim.

“Ah yes, hello again, I rather feel we finished our little meeting a little quickly, I forgot to let you know that budget won’t be an issue for this build. Go ahead and spend as much, or as little as you like.”

Rose comes through the door and looks startled to see your client, she drops the coffee and apologises profusely, rushes back to the reception area to get some cleaning supplies.

“I’ll let you get back to your brief, thank you again for agreeing to take this project on.”

“It’s not a problem Mr Green, the build should be ready for you in two weeks, is that an appropriate time scale?”

“Perfect, just in time for my party, to which, you are of course invited and bring that beguiling assistant of yours.”

Rose enters apologising profusely, much to your amusement to the client, who has already vanished once more. As she looks to the seating area, her mouth opens in a perfect ‘O’.

“Hence my need of caffeine.” You say and you both dissolve into laughter.

The Brief:
❖ A 20x30 lot
❖ 2 Bedrooms, both with en-suites
❖ A further full bathroom
❖ A Victorian style floor plan (so no open plan homes)
❖ Victorian style landscaping
❖ An old world feel to the interiors
❖ Kitchen, Dining Room and Drawing Room/Music Room must be included
❖ Keep in mind that your client is a ghost with all your design choices
❖ You have an unlimited budget

Optional Challenges
Sim: Create Mr William Green, a ghost who died from laughing too much, so his after life is quite serious. His Aspiration while he was alive (back in the 1800’s) was to become a famous comedian, and he was always a bit of a goofball.
Room: Create the Dining Room of the home, a room no larger than 8*6 with a Victorian theme, you have an unlimited budget.

Build-n-Share Challenge #5

#5 The Olsens Part Two

Morning. Who said morning had to come so early? ‘Whoever it was, they deserve a good punch in the mouth’, you decide as you grumpily sit down at your desk. And a Monday morning was even worse. A few scant hours of sleep after spending far too much time at a charity fundraiser the night before somehow only served to make you feel more tired. Desperately gulping down the caffeine-laden pumpkin spiced latte you picked up on the way in, you hope it will cure your exhausted grouchiness before your first appointment.

An email from Judy@theolsens.com catches your eye as you wade through the Monday morning inbox.

“Hi! I'm so sorry, but Don and I are going to have to miss our appointment with you this Monday. We've had a family emergency. I wanted to tell you though, that we love our new home and look forward to spending the rest of our lives there.

However, we wanted to tell you about part 2 of our project. We are both very close to our parents, being only children. My Mom, and both of his parents. We’d like you to build 2 more houses on the property, one for each of our parents. Our parents are…tolerant of each other, so individual houses are best. Each house should be Colonial in design and tie in with the main house that you built for us. Of course, appropriate landscaping is a must.

His parents, Leroy and Charlotte, prefer an Arts and Crafts style of decorating and interior. Their house should be 1 bedroom, 1.5 baths at least. His mother uses a walker, so nothing cluttered so she can get around. She needs a sewing room for her hobbies and he needs a den for when he watches hockey. My mother in law hates hockey.

My mother, Vivian, prefers a Coastal/Eclectic style of décor. She loves to read and write, so good lighting and lots of bookshelves are a must. Her house should be 1 bedroom and 1.5 baths as well. She also likes to garden, so a small greenhouse out back for her to putter in would be a great addition.

I hope you’re interested in taking on this challenge. We will be back in about 2 weeks, since both parents will be arriving then. If you have any problems, let me know!

Thanks, Judy.”

You lean back in your chair, thinking over the request. ‘Shouldn't be too hard…’

Requirements:
☆ 2 small homes, with colonial architecture and landscaping
☆ Each home must have 1 bedroom, 1.5 baths
☆ Total budget of $125k

Leroy and Charlotte’s home:
☆ Arts and Crafts interior
☆ Sewing room
☆ Den
☆ Garage
☆ Walker friendly

Vivian’s home:
☆ Coastal/Eclectic interior
☆ Greenhouse
☆ Good lighting
☆ Lots of bookshelves

Sim Challenge:
Make Leroy, Charlotte and Vivian and show one photo of each of them doing what they love!
Leroy is active and gloomy,
Charlotte is creative and good,
Vivian loves the outdoors and and is a bookworm.
The rest of the traits, as always, are up to you!

Room Challenge:
Make Vivian's greenhouse! It must not be more than 5*5 and your budget is $10k

Note, if you did not take part in the first part of this challenge, then you can of course still enter part two. You should just build the two homes on a lot no larger than 30x20…

Deadline: Wednesday 12th November, Midnight CMT

Build-n-Share Challenge #6

#6 Net Worth

You're hunched over your sketchpad at the drafting table when Rose bursts into your office, practically slamming the door shut behind her. Your usually calm and collected assistant is clearly rattled, given the lack of color in her cheeks and her sky-high eyebrows.

“Rose, what's wrong?” you ask, noting the faint tremor in her hands.

“I think...” Rose whispers, “I think your next clients may be some kind of criminals! My favorite china tea cup and the antique fountain pen from my mother have mysteriously vanished since they walked in the door. Not to mention they just seem...intimidating. Should I tell them you're booked?” Not one to shy away from a challenge or curiosity, you shake your head.

“No, go ahead and send them in. I will at least meet with them before I make a decision. Maybe hide anything else valuable that isn't nailed down.” Rose nods and then opens the door, waving the new clients into your office and then scurrying back to her desk.

Two large men in boots and cargo pants enter the room, both muscular and imposing, their faces impossible to read behind dark sunglasses. Wordlessly, they stand on either side of your office door, arms folded, as a diminutive woman with ink-black hair in leather saunters through the door. The defiant tilt of her chin belies her small stature.

“I'm Mara Sloane. My associates and I are in need of your services. We can more than compensate you for your efforts.” Sitting at your desk, you glance nonchalantly at the items on its surface, making a mental list.

“Of course,” you say. “Why don't you have a seat and tell me what it is that you need.” Ms. Sloane remains standing.

“We are looking for a utilitarian space, like a warehouse, in which we can both live and conduct business. We each need our own bedrooms, at least two bathrooms, a functional kitchen, a living room or common space and a computer lab. The building needs to be nondescript, like it's always been there. We don't want something that will attract a lot of attention. It also needs ample storage for our shipments. We need a new location quickly, so it must be completed in two weeks. Are you willing to take the job?”

As you clear your throat to answer, the words “THE ANSWER IS YES” flash across your computer screen so fast that you're not convinced you saw them. None of them appears to have moved a muscle. How...?

Then Ms. Sloane snaps her fingers at the men, and one of them hands her a small duffel bag. She drops it on your desk and yanks the zipper open.

“$225,000 Simoleons. That should cover your costs.” You nod, at a complete loss for words. “Good. We'll be in touch.”

“Wait!” you say, as they turn to leave. “What line of work did you say you were in?” Without pausing, Ms. Sloane calls out over her shoulder.

“I didn't.”

And with that, they're gone. Rose darts into your office, eyes wide, and you both stare in shock at her tea cup and fountain pen sitting smack dab on the center of your desk.

The Brief:

☆ 40x30 lot in the world of your choosing
☆ Nondescript, industrial building
☆ 3 bedrooms
☆ 2+ bathrooms
☆ Functional kitchen
☆ Common room
☆ Computer lab
☆ Storage for “shipments”
☆ Budget is $225,000

Sim Challenge:
Create Mara Sloane and her associates, Malik Yateem and Kurai Tsukino, and show them using the space you create. Mara is Evil and her aspiration is to become Public Enemy Number 1. Malik is neat and his aspiration is to become a Nerd Brain. Kurai is a genius who hopes to one day become Chief of Mischief . You choose the other 2 traits for each.

You need to show the three going about their day to day lives in their new environment, a day in the life sort of thing.

Room Challenge:
Create the computer lab, it needs to have workstations for each Sim and be of industrial design to fit with the overall theme. Your budget for this room is $25,000. It also needs to be showcased separately.

Build-n-Share Challenge #7

#7 The Game is Afoot

It was the rumble of an engine that drew your attention from the folio of house designs you were perusing while enjoying the beautiful fall weather on the porch. Pulling up to your curb with the grace of a large cat, is a fire engine red GTO with black racing stripes. Sunlight gleamed off the muscle car like it had just come off of a show room floor.

As you admire the curves and lines of the car, another sight to admire steps out. A deep red long coat snaps in the playful fall wind as he walks towards the steps. With the wind tugging at his dark hair, this mysterious stranger looks as if he stepped out of the pages of a graphic novel.

Up close you note an interesting blend of Spanish and Chinese heritage in a handsome face. Surprisingly intense amber colored eyes study you, making it seem as if all your secrets are available for him to read. Noting the folio in your hand, he smiles, a roguishly charming smile. “Are you the architect?”

“Um, yes.” You give yourself a shake and stand up to shake his hand. “Yes I am. You have a beautiful car.”

“Thank you. My adopted father and I restored it together. My name is Jesus Wu.”

“It's nice to meet you Mr Wu. Did we have an appointment?”

“No. I was hoping to make one or just talk to you in person. I need a house.”

You smile, “Everyone needs a house Mr Wu.”

“You could put that on a T-shirt.”

Now you grin, “I should do that. Do you want to sit out here and talk about your house? Or do you want to go inside?”

“Out here is fine. Its beautiful out.” He sits down. After fetching a pen and paper, he starts in. “I would like a house on a nice lot, with a great view and a little isolated. I’d like a master bedroom with en suite bathroom and I work from home so I’d like an office.”

“What kind of work do you do Mr Wu?” you inquire, taking rapid notes.

“I’m a private detective. I travel a lot, so I will need a good security system. My friends Mike and Reggie like to visit, so I need a guest bedroom. I also need a full bath. I’d like open concept. I have enemies and I want to have clear line of sight in case someone follows me home. I obviously need to keep fit, so a home gym is a must as well as I need some place to work out and train.”

“All of those are very doable. Any preferences in style or design features?”

“Not really. I have kind of an eclectic style. Comfortable.”

“Sounds good. When do you need your new home?”

“When can you have it? I’m staying at a hotel right now.”

“2 weeks?”

He looks impressed. “2 weeks it is. Thanks.” He stands up to go.

“Oh! Mr Wu!

“Yes?”

“What is your budget?”

“75k.”

“Alright. Thank you.”

“Later.” He says, casually tossing a wave over his shoulder as he heads back to his car. You watch him climb in and start the car. As he pulls away from the curb, you note a dark car with tinted windows pull away and follow…

The Brief:
❖ Using Potters Splay in Willow Creek
❖ Master bedroom with en suite bath
❖ Guest bedroom
❖ 1 full bath in addition to en suite.
❖ Open concept
❖ Eclectic style
❖ Gym

Sim Challenge:
Create Jesus Wu, and show his new life in town. His aspiration is to to become a body builder and he is a Bro, the rest is as always up to you.

Show Jesus settling into his new home and maybe investigating some of his new neighbours.

Room Challenge:

#8 - A Very Merry Christmas

This Week’s Challenge Specifics:

You sit at your desk looking at your holiday to do list, when Rose pokes her head in the door. Perplexed she says, "Your four o'clock is here." "Send them on in", you reply. She hands you a packet that smells faintly of vanilla and spices. Rose states,"This was dropped off about an hour ago with a note saying it was your four o'clock appointment!"
You open the packet with some apprehension to find a letter written on beautiful stationary and another piece of paper. You read that letter without uttering a single word. Rose jumps up to read the letter over your shoulder. This is what you both see and read.

You quickly grab the other piece of paper and quickly scan over the requirements. The job was very feasible and it would be nice to do something so meaningful this time of year. Rose asks with a sniff,"Are we doing this job?" You reply, "Yes, we definitely are!" Rose sniffs even harder as she heads for the door and states," I will start the paperwork!"

#9 A Very Merry Christmas Part II

This Week’s Challenge Specifics:

Sitting at home, curled up in front of your fire, you feel very pleased with yourself. You have made someone's Holiday so very special this year. As you find yourself nodding off to sleep you imagine that you can hear sleigh bells in the distance. You figure you must be dreaming as they sound like they are getting closer. They stop and as someone knocks on your front door you are wide awake. "Who on earth could be calling at this time on Boxing Day?" You ask yourself. You slowly unfurl yourself from your cosy chair and reticently leave the warmth of the fire, heading to the front door. You open it to be faced with someone who looks a lot like Santa Claus!

"Ah wonderful, I just wanted to come and thank you for completing The Lines' home so spectacularly."

You blink, figuring that you must actually still be asleep.

You nod mutely at the jolly gentleman dressed in red.

"I have another favour to ask of you though..." He says, almost shyly.

Again, unable to find your voice, you nod.

"Well, I'll ask Mrs C to email you all the details. Wishing you a Happy New Year!!"

Feeling a little absurd you nod once more.

And just like that he steps of of your font porch and into the sleigh waiting at the end of your driveway. Sleigh bells start up as you find yourself staring at a dozen reindeer all hooked up to the front of it. Closing the door, you head to your office and unlock your tablet and there waiting for you is an email from mrandmrsc@thenorthpole.com. Shaking your head, you open it.

My Dear,

Thank you once more for the wonderful job you did for The Lines family. It has come to my attention that we were rather remiss in our appraisal of the homeless situation here in Oasis Springs. There are a number of families that were without shelter over Mr C and mine's favourite day of the year. In our haste, I'm afraid we decided that the Shelter would not be needed and as so, we removed it (Fairy dust is such a powerful thing!!)

We were therefore hoping that you could build a new place for us to help those less fortunate than ourselves.

Here are a list of our requests.
☆ It needs to be on a rather large lot, I would guess the plot known as Arid Ridge is situated should more than meet our needs
☆ Three to four self contained apartment style spaces (which would be suitable for a family of up to 5 including the possibility of a baby)
☆ A large recreation area with entertainment present for all ages (this should also be able to be converted into an emergency shelter)
☆ A play area outside for little ones
☆ A vegetable plot to help the families receive a balanced diet for little outlay

Room Challenge:
We would like to see your recreation room in both schemes, as a space for entertainment and it converted into an emergency shelter.
You have an unlimited budget for this area.

Sim Challenge:
We would like to see how the less fortunate of Oasis Springs take to their new shelter.

Oh yes, Mr C and I are going to fund this build, so spend as much as you feel you have to!!

Happy New Year to you!

Mrs C

Finally you find your voice. "Rose is never going to believe me!" You say out loud as you shake your head.
