Kanye West has always had a certain flair for fashion, jewelry, accent pieces, and all things beautiful, so it comes as no surprise that he wants his mansion to receive the royal treatment. In an effort to transform his already stunning $57 million Malibu mansion, he enlisted one of the world's most out-of-the-box architectural geniuses - James Goldstein.

For those who may be unfamiliar with the enormity of James' talents, he just so happens to be known for his very unique approach to producing some of the most elaborately designed properties. He's very much considered a guru of all things design and has come up with some of the most jaw-dropping architectural design concepts that anyone has ever seen. He makes dreams into a reality by executing designs that most people would perceive to be impossible. Goldstein throws himself into curating designs that embody the most risk-taking, adventurous architectural designs that certainly require the most highly skilled construction specialists to execute.

 

Sources reveal that Kanye West reached out to James and requested that they get together to discuss his vision. Upon meeting up, the pair went on a full tour of the multi-million dollar mansion, while Kanye pointed out his creative ideas, and James weighed in with some unique, off-the-wall concepts of his own.

During the visit, it is said that West even showed James a few diagrams and sketches which revealed what he had in mind, and James has been entrusted to build on that and expand on the elements that will soon be brought into fruition.

It's hard to imagine what a $57 million mansion may require in the way of aesthetic upgrades, but when James Goldstein takes on a renovation, he definitely takes it to a whole other level.

Fans are excited to see what he comes up with, and of course, all eyes are on this project to hopefully soon establish just how much money Kanye plans on investing into this massive mansion overhaul.
