Build-n-Share Challenge # 14
#14 Operation Homefront
This Week’s Challenge Specifics:
You sit in the waiting room, still feeling a bit flustered at the sheer amount of personal information you had to disclose at the gate just set foot on the military base. The building is bustling with people, a dizzying sea of camouflage and dress blues. The man behind the reception desk puts the phone back in the cradle and says, “The Squadron Leader will see you now. Right this way, please.”
You follow him through a set of gleaming mahogany doors into the Squadron Leader's office. A burly man in a crisp uniform is pouring over plans tacked to a large bulletin board, his back plum straight. His blond hair is cropped close, and his skin is deeply tanned after hours under a hot sun. He turns and extends his hand to you. “Good morning. Ryan Kavanagh, Squadron Leader.” Your hand has disappeared in his enormous grasp.
“Good morning, sir. How may I help you?”
“We are in the process of rezoning a portion of this post and have appropriations to add housing for military families. I would like for you to design a modest family home for this purpose.”
“Certainly,” you reply. “What are the specifications required?”
Motioning at the bulletin board, which you now see is covered in winding streets and small, almost identical plots of land, Kavanagh responds, “The homes need to be modest 2- or 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom structures with the basic necessities: living, kitchen and dining. They must be a single story and built on slab foundations; basements are not in the budget.” His speech is clipped and concise.
“Is there a particular style of home you would prefer?” you ask, already mentally laying out possible floor plans.
“Something with clean lines, not a lot of bric-a-brac. Perhaps a craftsman bungalow or mid-century modern ranch. The landscaping should be tasteful but not overdone. The lots are small, only 20x20, so the yard space will be limited. The build must come in under $40,000 Simoleons.”
“I will begin immediately. We can have the first unit built in two weeks. Do you have any additional requirements, sir?”
“If time allows, I would like to see a mock-up of 4 different exterior choices on the home, in complementary color schemes. Nothing loud or garish. The structures will be uniform, but I would like a few options in terms of color.”
“Absolutely. I will be in touch. It was a pleasure to meet you.” Kavanagh shakes your hand again, the faintest curl of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
“Likewise. I look forward to our next meeting. Private Sanders will see you out.”
THE BRIEF:
20x20 lot in the town of your choice
2 or 3 bedrooms
1 bathroom
Living room
Kitchen
Dining room
1 story, on a slab foundation
Craftsman bungalow or mid-century modern ranch
Modest, clean landscaping
$40,000 budget
SIM CHALLENGE:
Make Ryan Kavanagh and show yourself giving him a tour of the prototype build.
ROOM CHALLENGE:
Not exactly a room challenge this time, but recolor the exterior and landscaping of the build in four different ways so the Squadron Leader has options. Each option will need to be uploaded to the gallery to qualify for entry.
Above all, have fun!
The challenge deadline is Wednesday 18th March Midnight CMT.
