In this house the larger than life gilded porcelain sculpture by Jeff Koon's would be the centre piece in one of the minimalist dining rooms.

The work would stimulate controversial conversations as guests would stare the detailed porcelain portrait of Michael, heated debates would flare up about whether or not we should listen to his music anymore, whilst Liberian girl would play softly in the background. 

By the end of dinner the thick white PVC table cloth would be covered by burns caused by the dripping wax, guests would pin the tablecloth onto the kitchen wall and it would become a beloved piece of art sitting behind the sculpture.

All the house guests would forget what they were talking about in favour of partaking in a moonwalking competition.
