Human: Produce a detailed written description of a dreary scene inside a building workshop with pigments, a table, and tesserae. Assistant: 
Building supplies are scattered about the room. A table is covered with tiles and tesserae of many shapes and colors. Massive beams of oak and thanot clutter the floor. Burlap bags of plaster mix are set beneath a table holding a variety of pigments. The smell of plaster dust is stifling.
