LIVING ROOM We call our place “mayhem-chic�. Kids go wild for the toys. We don’t care what they do. It’s a free-for-all. BEDROOM The deer stamp prints are by our friends P.A.M. The blanket is by Beci Orpin. We love graphics and pop art.
CRAZY COOL
GUEST ROOM The prints are by Misha Hollenbach, from Perks and Mini (P.A.M.). The pillows are by prolific New York-based street and pop artist KAWS. We bought them at his OriginalFake store in Tokyo.

TOYS We always bring back toys from Japan. Some of these are collectables now. SKULL LAMP Madonna also owns this Misha for Undercover lamp. We have one in black, too.
I CANâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T LIVE WITHOUTâ&#x20AC;Ś
TOY Little Friend was a collaboration by P.A.M. and the late Mike Kelley. It talks when you squeeze its belly, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s started saying things Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never heard before.
LIGHT This Tom Dixon pendant hangs above the kitchen table where Nat works.
INCENSE CHAMBER This is by Neighborhood. The incense bellows from the crowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evil mouth and eyes.
