It was a space where he created his art and worked on projects, but it looks like a new beginning for Kanye West as removal men were seen packing up his Calabasas studio.

Design boards and project plans were seen being cleared out of the space on Thursday as workers got to work on emptying the hip hop icon's belongings.

Kanye was recently released from UCLA Medical Center after he was admitted for sleep deprivation and dehydration for 10 days.

Now it looks like Kanye is ready to start a new chapter as items of his clothing projects were hauled out of the studio space.

It's been reported by TMZ that Kanye is currently working on new music and has “been more relaxed and focused” at his Bel-Air mansion that he shares with wife Kim Kardashian.

It comes as Kim's BFF Jonathan Cheban has revealed she and her husband Kanye are excited for 2017.

The reality TV star's pal - who recently dismissed speculation the couple are getting divorced - has said that after a difficult end to the year, they are looking forward to a fresh beginning.

"Kim and Kanye are looking forward to the new year, new changes," he told Us Weekly at the Jingle Ball concert in New York City. "They're going to be great."

Jonathan added that Kanye is also recovering well after recently being hospitalised following a breakdown brought on by exhaustion.

He added: "[He is] doing much better. We're all looking forward to the new year."

It comes after a US magazine claimed Kim had wanted to split from Kanye West for a while, and was allegedly trying to “build a case for full custody of the kids North and Saint”.

The magazine alleged the reality star knows for sure she “doesn’t want to stay married to him”, despite over two and a half years together as husband and wife.

However, when asked about the claims on Wednesday evening, Jonathan said: "I just FaceTimed with Kim and Kanye and everyone's talking about some divorce rumours and I was laughing because I didn't hear that all day and I guess everybody else apparently here did and it's so funny to me because it's so not true."

He added to E! News: "They're in good spirits. I don't want to talk much about them because it's not my business but I do have to say that the divorcing is kind of hysterical, that I will mention, because I just spoke to both of them on FaceTime literally before I was coming here and when I heard that I literally burst out laughing."
