Willis — who is the daughter ofDemi MooreandBruce Willis— worked with designer Roman Alonso ofCommune Designto bring her love-inspired design vision to life.
She says she immediately fell for the ceilings in her historic home's vaulted entryway, which is still adorned with the original colored plaster. Scout takes great pride in the 1920s Normandy-style cottage being a "designated historic landmark," as she's a major "nerd for L.A. history," she says.
"I wanted it to feel like an adult woman's home. And at the same time, like an absolute whimsical, sensual child's playground," she toldADof the vibe she and Alonso curated.
As a result, the ceiling in the living room is washed with a soft pink color, while the stairs are painted a rich purple-brown. A paler pink is featured in her dressing room, which she describes as her "surrealist Marie Antoinette 1930s department-store closet."
She also calls attention to her "fantasy shire fairy garden," which she worked with landscaping firmGeoponikato fill with an array of unconventional plants.

As for the rest of the outdoor space, she wanted to make sure it was an area fit for entertaining — and for potentially sparking a connection between her guests. Thus, she had multiple features installed where possible glances could be stolen, from the hot tub to the sunken "conversation pit."
"My friend calls it flirty architecture," Scout says of the layout.
While the newly-designed home reflects a whimsical, groovy feel, the musician notes that it also holds a connection to her own creative process.
"What I love so much about L.A. — and this house — is it's kind of like a palimpsest, where all these different eras are overlaid," she tells the outlet. "I use my music this way, I use all my work this way. It's like a spell."

Following the release of her single "It Ain't Nothing," Scout spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about her"fascination" behind love and relationships, and how that translated into her music.
"I'm so fascinated by human sexuality and relationships and the way people fit with themselves in these spaces," she told PEOPLE in November. "[What] feels really exciting for me about this music and this record is that it's almost these embedded mantras."
