Photos: Take a tour of will.i.am’s Los Feliz studio

Over the past three years, Black Eyed Peas singer and video artist will.i.am has transformed the lower level of his three-story 1920s Spanish residence in Los Feliz. What was once a warren of guest and game rooms is now a lavish recording studio with decidedly luxurious appointments. "It's an old soul's laboratory," he says of the mix of high-tech equipment and Old World decor. "It has a special energy and unique vibes. I think it might be haunted." Join him and his designer, Liana Reid, for a tour of the rooms where Fergie recorded her solo LP and will.i.am put together "Yes We Can," the viral video that set the words of Obama's famed campaign speech to music.
