Inside Prince's massive US$10 million mansion, which has become a memorial after his death

Prince Rogers Nelson died April 21 at Paisley Park Studios, his estate and studio in Chanhassen, Minnesota, outside Minneapolis.

Named after the Prince song "Paisley Park" and the now defunct record label, the production complex features recording studios, a nightclub, rehearsal space, offices, and private space for the award-winning musician.

Prince spent the majority of his time at the US$10 million, 65,000-square-foot space, but he didn't always live there.

Known far and wide in the state, the space has also become a memorial following Prince's death. It is likely to be turned into a museum honouring the artist, whose estate has made clear it plans to preserve it and not sell it off.

Though Prince was notoriously secretive about the mansion, these photos offer a glimpse into Prince's creative hub: 

Paisley Park was designed by Los Angeles architect Bret Theony and was completed in 1987.

The front lobby features second-floor balconies and clouds painted on the walls, as well as pyramidal skylights. Prince's Love Symbol Number 2 glyph is featured prominently on the floor.
