Lachlan bagged an invite to OMA's Christmas Party with his friend Anton at Rotterdam's Kunsthal. It was the party to be at and generously, plus ones were allowed. In the midst of a very long and glamorous evening, Lachlan overheard someone who he thought was Canadian and struck up a conversation with her. Right in the midst of her conversation with Peter. Unbeknownst to either at first, they had already locked eyes across a bar some weeks before meeting. The rest is history as they say... Lachlan didn't even find out Peter's name that evening at the party, but he asked around at OMA, and a mutual friend, Gili told him. After that they met first for drinks at a local watering hole, and then eventually for dinner. While at first, the interest was professional espionage, as Peter and Lachlan worked for competing practices, things quickly got personal.
