A few paces in, the room narrows to a bright seam of a doorway that resembles the more unabashed works of Georgia O'Keeffe. "The entryway is a womb, and the door is a vagina," says Fonda in her startling vibrato. "I had it designed so that you're sort of delivered into the loft. Don't you love...

And that’s just the sheets: As a sophomore, Mann constructed a loft, ladder, and queen-sized bed frame from scratch to give him and his roommate more space. Eventually, the ladder thing got old. Today, his room in Claverly features the same wooden bed frame—now sawed in half so that it sits on the floor.
