cheri and i were walking down a residential block in west hollywood recently when through a driveway and between a jungle of trees we saw a huge open wood-paneled room with incredible light pouring in so we decided to sneak around. what we “discovered” an incredible home “designed and built by a well known artist and film director” that can be yours for $2.6 million. anyone know who the artist in question is?
