Chapter 426: 422: Designer Linda
Two days after the advertisement was finished, Roy Lewis received a clipped video and all the carefully selected photos taken during the shoot from the advertising company.
Roy Lewis, who usually had no time to watch dramas, watched the video at a normal speed.
After that, he sent the advertising company’s boss a sum of money far exceeding the advertising fee.
As for the male model who was replaced by Roy Lewis, he was recommended to a famous designer’s solo show and became famous because of his high professional quality.
The next day, during an interview, the male model specifically thanked Master Lewis for his cultivation and grace!
Of course, Roy Lewis didn’t care about these irrelevant gossip.
What he cared about, as always, were matters concerning Dr. Dunn and their three little kids.
Meanwhile, Richelle, like him, managed to squeeze in half a day after filming the advertisement and had a driver take her back to the Lewis’ Village in the afternoon.
This time, she didn’t bring the children, just let the bodyguard follow her with a camera, and took many photos and videos as she wandered around the village all afternoon. When she got back home, apart from having dinner and putting the kids to bed, she immersed herself in her private studio for days on end without rest.
Later that day, after finishing lunch, Roy Lewis was in the study handling some matters.
Richelle pushed open the door without knocking, excitedly holding a laptop, and ran in.
“Roy Lewis, my draft is done, do you want to see it?”
Upon hearing this, Roy Lewis quickly closed the file, got up and went over, sitting down on the carpet with her and watching as she displayed her work frame by frame on the projector.
Roy Lewis knew nothing about architecture, but even so, it didn’t affect the strong sense of awe he felt when he saw the sketches Richelle had designed.
By now, he could understand why Richelle’s senior felt heartbroken and saddened by her change of profession.
If he were her advisor, he thought, he would take up a big knife and go fight Sonia Seaton for her.
Though Richelle hadn’t been involved in architectural design for several years, her sketches still managed to incorporate the traditional style of the entire Lewis’ Village. Furthermore, she integrated many of her own impressions and imaginings of the Lewis family, Roy Lewis, and the three children into every detail.
The overall design was bold without losing its individuality, complementing the entirety of the Lewis’ Village yet maintaining a distinctive personal style. From the shapes to the smallest details, they were all full of ingenious ideas and profound metaphors.
“How is it? If there’s anything you find lacking or unsatisfactory, just let me know. Don’t worry about hurting my feelings; I won’t get upset!”
Perhaps seeing that Roy Lewis hadn’t said a word, Richelle thought he had an opinion but didn’t dare to mention it.
However, Roy Lewis was simply too overcome with awe to speak.
Hearing Richelle’s teasing, he turned and cupped her face, giving her a long and gentle kiss.
After the kiss, he pressed her against his pounding chest.
“Richelle, you are the most precious treasure bestowed upon me by Heaven!”
Richelle gasped for breath, poking her head out of his embrace, and with her lips glistening and moist from his kiss, she complained.
“Roy Lewis, I asked you to look at the draft, why are you getting so emotional?”
Roy Lewis kissed her hard again, “The drafts are excellent!”
“No, they’re not just drafts, they’re masterpieces – the most exquisite architecture I’ve ever seen!”
Richelle lightly hammered her fist against his chest, “Tsk, your filter as a lover is too strong.”
Struggling to free herself from his embrace, she pointed to a few spots on the screen with a laser pen.
“For example, the bricklaying method of this corner, I was considering whether to use the traditional stacking style of the Lewis’ Village or my own new stacking method.”
“Go with the new one, I like it. It’s full of vitality, and as young people, it’s more suited to us.”
“But will it look too lively?”
Roy Lewis understood her concern, “Our Lewis family, as a century-old family, should not be stick to old conventions if we want to continue prospering. Instead, we should be vibrant and lively, so your designs are an excellent fusion of the two styles!”
Having been out of touch with architecture for so long, Richelle was afraid she might have lost her touch and gotten the feel wrong.
“Really! The two styles don’t conflict or look out of place. In fact, it can be said that they’re like a father and son, like a heritage and development, all embodied in your designs.”
Roy Lewis also found it strange that he wasn’t knowledgeable about architecture, but when he saw Richelle’s sketches, he could sense the metaphors and messages they conveyed.
As expected, there are no barriers to appreciating good art.
Anyone with an eye and heart for beauty can feel its power and splendor from it.
Also, the upward spirit and energy that the designer wanted to convey!
Richelle’s eyes welled up with tears, “Roy Lewis, can you really feel these things?”
Roy Lewis looked at her strangely, “If I don’t feel them myself, do you have any indicated metaphors? Or is what I feel wrong or biased?”
Richelle sniffled, tears in her eyes but shook her head.
“No! What I wanted to express is exactly what you said.”
“Roy Lewis, thank you!”
Thank you for understanding them at a glance!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to touch my passion and beauty once
more!
