You’re at your home. It’s 1996. You’re enjoying life. Or maybe you’re not, I can’t tell. But you better make it look like it! For your client can be described in just one word: Dandy. He is a gentleman among gentlemans, a class act among class acts. His calm and reassuring voice makes you hope for the future. His suit and cloak make you wish you were half as stylish as he. His beard gives a refined aura. His pipe is from a locally sourced wood, hornbeam to be exact. “Why I was hoping for a new car. Care for you to help?” he asked. You were all to happy to accept. “Why thank you. It is of upmost concern that my new car meets these specifications.” You nod intently as he lists his preferred specifications.
“First, it must exude style and class. I don’t mean like a new Ferrari or Lamborghini. One must look upon its refined exterior and think to oneself. “That is one dandy car.”
Next, it must be comfortable. I must sit in the driver’s seat, and be absorbed into the car. I should be brought back to my own fine seating chair in my fire-lit library, reading Keats. I won’t accept anything less than the best.
Also, it must be able to traverse unimproved roads with ease. You see, I like to do conservation work and must travel to the woods often.
These are my only specifications. I know you won’t disappoint.”
He leaves with the graces of hundereds of years, along with his beautiful wife. You sure don’t want to disappoint them!
You’re left excited for designing this new car!
