Why did Katy Perry go to space?

The Blue Origin NS-31 mission — done by the first all-female space crew in over 60 years — is part of the organization's own mission to "enable future [space] exploration."

Katy Perry's entire space journey lasted around 11 minutes, which means she was only truly in space for a few minutes before returning to earth. It also means her journey was shorter than Taylor Swift's All Too Well: The Short Film.

How much does it cost to go to space on Blue Origin?

Blue Origin auctioned off a ticket for their first crewed trip to space for $28 million, The New York Times reports. But the Associated Press reports Virgin Galactic has tickets between $200,000 and $450,000. All in all, a trip to space isn't cheap.

Who was on the spaceship with Katy Perry?

In addition to Katy Perry, the latest Blue Origin flight crew included Gayle King, Amanda Nguyen (a bioastronautics research scientist and the first Vietnamese woman in space!), Aisha Bowe (who used to be a NASA rocket scientist), Lauren Sánchez (a journalist and Jeff Bezos' fiancée), and Kerianne Flynn (a film producer).

BEFORE SUNROOM

Originally a cramped two-bedroom with an awkward layout, the home included an unusual sunroom addition that felt more like a makeshift trailer.

BEFORE KITCHEN

Outdated wallpaper and years without a refresh left the home in need of a serious renovation. Also, those curtains!

BEFORE BATHROOM

You get the picture, the home was originally designed for another era.

AFTER

1. Earthy Color Palette

Fresh off a trip to Italy, the principals infused the design with Mediterranean warmth, pairing clean contemporary lines with soft textures, rich materials, and an earthy, neutral palette. They repurposed the underutilized sunroom, relocating the kitchen there and turning it into a sleek, inviting space.

“We wanted to create a serene escape from the city through a neutral yet warm palette,” says Jackie.

In true Italian spirit, the kitchen serves as the heart of the home — designed with limestone, European white oak, plaster finishes, and unlacquered brass, anchoring the home's quiet luxury aesthetic.

The interiors were styled in collaboration with Neustadt-Studio, whose vision aligned perfectly with Jackie and Martina’s.

2. Vintage Decor

"From there we added vintage pieces from our own private collection, including a curved mohair sofa for a pop of color, Willy Guhl planters and a Pirman armchair by Heinz Julien," says Martina. I love the European inspiration and classic furniture design.

Blending old and new is a signature of Galerie Design + Build. Vintage lighting was thoughtfully layered in to bring character and a sense of history to the space.

3. Textured Materials

The pair could give a master class in layered neutral design. “Bringing in textured materials like leathered and tumbled natural stone, mixing different wood finishes, patterns in tile layouts or fabrics, and blending in vintage lighting and furniture will add depth while maintaining a neutral palette.” says Jackie.

Limestone, European white oak, plaster finishes, and unlacquered brass continue throughout the home to add continuity.

Quiet luxury isn’t limited to neutrals — calming paint colors and vintage art can bring just as much serenity and sophistication.

4. Floral Accents

The floral bedspread has the charm of a classic Italian villa in summer — nostalgic in a beautiful way.

The result? A modern Italian-inspired sanctuary that balances simplicity and soul, right in the heart of Los Angeles.
