There are no interior photos of Russell Brand and Katy Perry's house -- but that doesn't mean we can't have our illustrator take an educated guess.According to the Daily Mirror, Katy Perry and Russell Brand had decor skirmishes when they first moved in together. Brand's London home was "dark, gothic and quite sinister," Perry said. "My apartment was like Candyland, every room in a different pastel and very over the top. He didn't want to live in a cracked-out fairyland and I didn't want to live in a goth house, so it's a balancing act."
How did they merge their tastes? We took a guess.
We kind of want to move into Katy Perry's house now! Custom illustration by Michaela Hogarty, Flight of Design.
There are staged home photographs of Perry and Brand's 4,706-square-foot love nest in Los Angeles, but none since they moved in and decorated. So we took some creative liberties and imagined what their living room looks like. Noting Perry's love of color and Brand's wild side, ShelterPop's newest contributor Michaela Hogarty drew up a room with funky decor, an unexpected lighting choice, a lush rug and enough classic reminders of home to make any rock star happy. (And guess what, you can afford everything in this room!)
