Demi Lovato’s Studio City modern farmhouse is a vibrant 8,500-square-foot retreat, blending eclectic design with personal touches. Featuring six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, the home includes unique spaces like a glam room, a “Shroom Room,” a custom recording studio, and a lavender dining room. Designed in collaboration with Argyle Design, the house showcases playful decor such as mushroom stools and whimsical salt and pepper shakers. The backyard boasts a pool, hot tub, fire pit, and outdoor kitchen, providing a perfect space for relaxation and entertainment.
This modern farmhouse provided the perfect blank canvas. Lovato conceptualized her eighth album, “Holy Fvck,” in this home, marking a return to her rock and pop-punk roots. The design process mirrored her personal journey, with every inch of the space embodying her personality and fluid identity.
Lovato’s head of security connected her with Argyle Design founders Kat Bell and James Drew. The trio’s collaboration resulted in a house full of great energy and unique vibes. Lovato wanted her home to have good hosting energy, with immersive experiences and provocative Easter eggs like mushroom-shaped stools, butt vases, and salt and pepper shakers shaped like boobs.
Eva Seta from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles curated the artwork, featuring pieces by emerging artists from underrepresented communities such as Monica Kim Garza, Lilian Martinez, Hannah Epstein, Yasmine Nasser Diaz, and Lola Rose Thompson. Lovato aimed to create a very queer environment with a strong emphasis on female empowerment.
The glam room features eye-catching embellishments like pieces of Pierre Paulin and Michael Ducaroy furniture, a Murano chandelier, a custom Gustaf Westman mirror, and a neon sign that reads “You’re Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile.” The interior also includes a fully functioning shampoo bowl from a hair salon. The “Shroom Room” allows guests to spread out on a rainbow custom-made modular sectional set, with Pierre Paulin Tongue chairs and an interactive cloud lamp by Rania Peet hanging from a mural ceiling by Jen Stark.
The lavender-hued dining room adopts an aquatic tone, with fixtures like Uchiwa wall sconces and a chandelier from Entler Studio reminiscent of tentacles. The kitchen is grounded with wood finishes, brass details, and Gucci’s Lilies wallpaper. The bold living room features a Desede DS-600 Nonstop sofa wrapped around a bonsai tree coffee table and zebra onyx crystal lamps.
Transforming the pool house into a recording studio was a major project. The result is a creative environment with soft textures and a vintage 1960s Italy Vistosi chandelier with iridescent Murano glass discs. This spiritual energy extends to Lovato’s primary bedroom, which combines whimsy with rock and roll.
The backyard offers another universe with a pool, hot tub, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and a secluded patio. There’s a designated area for Lovato’s dogs, Batman and Cinderella, secured with netting to protect them from hawks and coyotes. Lovato even installed miniature tables with a feeding station for neighborhood squirrels.
Lovato’s modern farmhouse is a testament to her creative vision and personal growth, blending comfort, style, and functionality. “Home to me is where I can rest easy and stay—even if there’s a quarantine or lockdown—and feel completely fulfilled,” Lovato concludes. “I have no reason to leave; this is everything I’ve wanted in a house.”
