Setup: Define the room brief
[ROOM TYPE] [ROOM USE GOALS (TOP 3)] [OCCUPANTS & PETS] [STYLE REFERENCES LINKS OR KEYWORDS] [BUDGET RANGE NZD] [DEADLINE (DATE OR WEEKS)] [PAIN POINTS] [MUST-HAVES] [NICE-TO-HAVES] [LANDLORD/BUILDING LIMITS] [COLOUR/ALLERGY/MAINTENANCE NOTES] Act as a design brief facilitator and turn my inputs into a tight, decision-ready room brief. Work through it like this: 1) Clarify purpose: translate [ROOM USE GOALS] into activities and performance needs (e.g., seating count, work surface size, TV viewing distance). 2) Scope: define what changes are in/out given [LANDLORD/BUILDING LIMITS] and effort level (paint, removable fixtures, soft furnishings). 3) Aesthetic direction: distil [STYLE REFERENCES] into 3–5 style anchors (materials, colours, shapes) and 2–3 avoid notes. 4) Budget strategy: map [BUDGET RANGE NZD] to high/medium/low spend areas and what gets reused. 5) Priorities: rank [MUST-HAVES]/[NICE-TO-HAVES] using MoSCoW (Must/Should/Could/Won’t for now) and note any allergies/maintenance constraints. Give me the output as: - Room Brief (sections: Purpose & Activities; In/Out of Scope; Style Anchors & Avoid; Budget Strategy; Constraints; Priorities Table using MoSCoW; Risks & Assumptions). Include a 1-sentence Design North Star at the top. Name: Room Brief. Quality bar: Specific, measurable, and testable—no vague words without a metric (e.g., “seat 4 for dining”, not “more seating”). If any field is missing, mark it MISSING and ask one precise question per missing field to proceed.
