- Social Butterfly – Apartment must provide plenty of space for Cindy to entertain guests. Smaller bedroom is probably appropriate, as she does not seem spend much time in the bedroom except when she is sleeping. Natural light throughout the space should be maximized

- Painter/Teacher – Must have enough space for watercolor class sessions to happen. Also must have adequate wall space to display her personal work as well as her students work. Overall design and layout of the apartment should inspire her and her student’s art.

- Book Club Host – Plenty of comfortable seating should be provided. Seating arrangement should make it easy for a large group of people to interact and converse. (line of sight) Proximity of the seating area to the kitchen should be close so the snacks and refreshments for the guests can get to them easily. Foot traffic circulation should be fluid so guests feel comfortable.
