I find that ad really annoying. They obviously think 'creative people' (and I bet they have very specific ideas about what a 'creative person' is) are special. When they really aren't, necessarily. They're just people.
I suspect "creative" in this context means "will supply own drugs". Also, the phrase "two friendly girls" is clearly calculated to bypass any and all rational impulse on the part of potential responders. Shit, I'm tempted to reply and I live in a different country.
I'd worry about the "creative" impulse in a house-mate, unless they were very tidy. Imagine the mess made by an avid felter, basket-weaver, or knitter of matinee jackets.

I couldn't imagine that sort of ad being anywhere other than Rough Trade.

I think they're looking for a pet gayer.

I create washing up. Does that count?
(Um. How much is the flat? Whereabouts? Are the fit? etc.)

Well they're "friendly" rather than "creative" so maybe they're trying to leech some of the creativity.
Needing somewhere to live myself right now I'd give them a call like a shot ... can't end up any worse off than now I suppose -
