I rather doubt that they did it themselves. They probably hired a designer to do it.
We had a friend in Melbourne who inherited a bunch of money. They had their house built with a pool that had a train going around it. They hired a designer to buy all the furnishings, paint, the whole works - even importing 100 beer mugs t o line the shelves in the den.
Before taking occupancy, they sold everything they had back in CT and ordered two Cadillacs to be delivered to them when they arrived at the airport, bringing only a file box.
Then they purchased clothing and toothbrushes.
Six years later they went bankrupt.
