For a quote, contact RoboRik on Discord.<ref>Ubo™#8945</ref> Delivery times vary with size and complexity, but usually range between two days and a week. Finished designs are always provided as a schematic file (or litematic, per client preference); Robo's does not offer a construction service.
==Selected projects on CivClassic (2021)==
===Urban renewal in Southshire (June - December 2021)===
Robo's was founded on June 1st, when the leader of [[Southshire]], [[StrPlatinum]], commissioned RoboRik to design a new capital. The city would soon be christened [[Southshire#Samcester|Samcester]]. Inspired by the British inflection of the name, RoboRik looked to England for inspiration. His finished design reflects the archetypical [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorian_architecture Victorian architecture] of the 19th century, particularly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_Revival_architecture Gothic Revival]. Like the winding alleyways of England, not one street or plot is perfectly straight. The three buildings on King Peter's Square represent the succession of powers that ruled Southshire: first the [[the Commonwealth|Commonwealth]], then [[Yoahtl]], and finally the independent Triumvirate. Samcester remains RoboRik's largest ever project on Civ.

===''Chāntli'' (August 2021)===
''Chāntli'' ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nahuatl Nahuatl] for 'house' or 'dwelling') is a large [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Empire_style#Architecture Second Empire] villa.town Unusuallyhouse, thecommissioned by [[WackyAki]] as his [[Icenia#Internal Districts of Icenia|Icenian]] residence. The design blends influences from both the American and the French variants of the style. TheSurrounding villathe mansion is surrounded by a small, landscaped park, with a duck pond and hand-sculpted trees.
 
The interior of ''Chāntli'' is more utilitarian than usual, but still reflects a commitment to realism. The vaulted souterrain is the domain of the servant staff, with a kitchen, storage areas, and a spartan dormitory. The ground floor is largely minor rooms for the private use of the family - with the exception of the monumental, domed vestibule. Its grand staircase leads to the first floor, or ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_nobile piano nobile]'', where lavish guest rooms flaunt the family wealth.
 
[[WackyAki]], the reigning [[Yoahtl#Alcuahtl|Alcuahtl]] of Yoahtl, commissioned ''Chāntli'' to serve as his residence in [[Icenia#Internal Districts of Icenia|Icenia City]].
=== ''Mebiusu no ie'' (September 2021) ===
''Mebiusu no ie'', commissioned by [[smallfry834618]], is a small, rustic rustic villa on the outskirts of [[Okashima#Okato|Okato]]. Like the rest of the city, it borrows heavily from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_architecture#Edo_period architecture] of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edo_period Tokugawa-era Japan]. The name is Japanese for 'House of Möbius', playing off smallfry's Discord-tag.
