- Welcome back to my channel!! Today's were taking a peek through Kim Kardashian's Vogue House Tour. Is this minimalism or solitary confinement?! I have a lot of thoughts about this one and I don't know if I can get behind some of the decisions made here. What do you think of Kim K's home? Would you want to live here?

All the money in the world and she chooses to live in an upscale penitentiary
Right? The perfect example of money can’t buy taste or style 😅
@@mrphoenixgreyyou sound very condescending! As an interior designer you make designs based on what your client wants, not on what you want!
Hilarious comment
@@0900McShizzleI happened to agree with every points he made. I’m sure her designer did it exactly to her likings. Since she put her life and private world on media for everyone to see, she’s inviting people’s ideas, comments and feedbacks on it. So, it’s cool.
@mrphoenixgrey as a palate cleanser, could you review Daveed Diggs and Emmy Raver-Lampman's house? Unlike this vacuous void, it's filled with so much personality and warmth
Her space gives the feeling of extravagant emptiness, sort of like her image. It’s very on brand for her persona, so I wouldn’t expect anything different tbh.
accurate❤ great comment
Amazing backhanded compliment hahahaha
Nothing is authentic, from her heart. If Japanese minimalism is revered and is the trend then she will do that, if Italian ostentatiousness is looked upon them she’ll make it her home. It’s not style, it’s an ego rampage
@@Geniere10 What are you basing that on?
Bland, cold & vacant
It’s absolutely mind blowing how much they must have spent on basically nothing 😅
Bodies included 😂
Yes
Yeah that designer really got a good deal. A whole lot of money for tossing a few cushions around. Looks like a Dr. Office. 😂😂
@@zulie9378 😂😂😂😂😂
her home looks like a psychiatric ward, zen garden, prison cell, church, and tomb simultaneously.
It feels like something in some dystopian nightmare, where you're isolated from any warmth and human connection. It looks like androids would live there. I disagree with D. Daddy in his one compliment that the rooms are calming. They are anything but calming, they are anxiety-inducing.
You’re absolutely spot on! Scary home!
The flatness actually does the opposite for me. It makes me a little anxious. I think because my mind by default will always be busier than the space and that is too much. Being able to focus on beautiful items and decor actually helps me to clear my mind. I am not saying I want to live in clutter, but this is too extreme.
Yeah, in another video he explains that your eye needs somewhere to focus in a room; in these there is nothing. You'd go crazy.
Yes. I agree. How can you even ground yourself when everything blends in with everything? To me, it makes me feel “yuck.” Not grammar perfect but the best I can describe it lol.
It makes me feel anxious too! I would not feel comfortable being a guest.
Well said
@@MySkinnydip Maybe that's the point: she doesn't want anyone to stay!
To me, decor - when people have time and resources to create it intentionally - reveals character. This says, "Been bored with life since age 12. And my children are low on my priority list."
I couldn’t agree more
Yep. It's really sad when you have kids, but your house shows absolutely no sign that they exist.
@@tamaramartin4015 what is their life like: constant "don't leave that toy there" or "no you cannot color with crayons, you might mess up the white everything" or heaven forbid "remember you always have to wear white in this house so you don't distract from my pretentious decor" ??? imho, messed up priorities.
@@sarahdee374 It doesn't exactly scream kid friendly, that's for sure.
@@tamaramartin4015 it doesn't even whisper kid tolerant, lol.
She never struck me as someone who has good and elegant taste in clothing. Her home decor is just as sad and boring to me. The enormous scale of this home made this design even worse - a massive space of cold and dark nothingness.
I too, like many of us, have a chaotic, busy life and would like to come home to a warmly lit place and envelope myself in a soft throw by the fire on a cozy, velvety sofa… I need signs of life and nature in my surroundings. Give me some fragrant, beautiful flowers, a big bowl of fresh fruits, great big and small luscious plants.
This place is too sterile and hospital like. No, thank you.
Decor styles like Minimalism and Bohemian are too extreme. They’re neither artistic nor practical in my views.
Her bedroom @5:55 looks like a masoleum! Put a tombstone there and it will definitely complete the look!
now that you say it I can't unsee it. What saved it for me was the linens
Oh, too funny! Death and sex do not mix well!!#
Yes you said it BEST .its a dead looking place .
Just needs a Canova statue
Rituals performed.
She doesn't live there. That's her decoy house. I bet there's another house in the grounds that is just FILLED with stuff that is pink and fluffy and cute - as well as her kids! This is the home she walks everyone around to show off her 'brand'. It's not a home - it's a set.
I think you must be right. What strikes me about the bathroom for instance is that there's nowhere to hang a single towel. There's no way they actually use that space.
Exactly. She even dressed specifically to match the house - and over-dressed at that. She could have kept her outfit and makeup a bit more minimal.
You might be right but I can see Kanye designing this.
😂
YES I AGREE. This is her public persona museum... they have a real home for the kids that we don't see.
I actually think this would be the ideal home of ANY narcissist because the surrounding (although screaming wealth), is so boring that ALL attention, and I mean ALL attention would land on the homeowner or whoever is talking to you. It's actually kind of genius. Cuz no matter how boring the narcissist is...they'll be more interesting than the house, so you'll walk away going "Great conversation." 😏 A Narc dream come true!! 💛😄
Dude in American psycho his apt was hella simple !!! Your spot on !!! Hell yeah
Oh you hit the nail on the head 😂 when she was walking down the hallway, I wasn’t looking at the architecture… I was watching her walk 😂 …. Thinking about her strange plastic surgeries 😂
If you notice in that one shot.. it's a floor to ceiling mirror. She has to look at herself constantly. Sick as hell. Smith from the Matrix.... ME... ME... ME.... ME TOO!!!
OMG such a great point
😂😂
I can hear the echos in her home!!! Does she really live there? I am thinking that her mind is devoid of thought, and her home reflects that
Truly!
She starts out saying the world is so chaotic, dramatic, fake, and everybody is clamoring for her attention, she has to run home to escape. Listen to the irony in that alone.
absolutely i was gob smacked😂❤
Except here in Japan. I saw her with her kids around 2 months ago here in Tokyo and absolutely nobody knew her and her kids.
@@azabujuban-hito8085 THAT probably drove her crazy. See the Brits think that Americans are slightly interested in Megan Markle, but she cannot hold a candle to this POS.
@@azabujuban-hito8085 as it should be wish everyone would forget her.
😂😂yes!!!
I think her home reflects beautifully her inner world which is devoid of all character and personality.
Some people have more dollars than sense, as Grandma used to say.
Money can’t buy taste they say 💀
@@mrphoenixgrey OR "more money than brains", in her case, ....2 dollars, maybe.
For me her house makes me feel like I'm in a hospital! It's sad, cold and gloomy. If this reflects her personality, i honestly find it Creepy, it's like looking into a house of rich, manipulative psychopaths in a movie. Sorry
There’s no way Kim k has a bathroom without a mirror.
Also, my feet hurt just thinking about living in this house.
I wanted to see the cabinets that she locks her children in between scheduled parental intetaction photo opportunities.
They funny thing is when the house is sold. The next owner will rip everything out and totally renovated the entire house.
Or bring in textiles , art work and living plants , the air in that house is questionable ,Made feel like it was a hospital for the mentally disturbed
I actually love the general design of her house but think that if she did something as minimal as putting wood flooring throughout instead it would make a huge difference and add 100% more warmth and coziness. Even the wood in the bathroom makes a huge difference imo.
I could see that.
Mausoleum decor
I am willing to bet that they have a separate real living space that no one sees. It looks like a space she rents out for events.
Thank you Design Daddy for not being afraid to say exactly what needed to be said. For those who did not know Kanye had that house designed. This home is a home a home is warm inviting cozy life. When I see this house not home but house it’s almost feels like your in a mental state hospital. Children need colors brightness imagine if a child is running around and fall the floors are marble that could be very dangerous for not just children but again if your not running your pretty much safe there’s nothing to trip over. North West has said to Kim that her house is ugly and who lives like this look that up when Kim says how north hurt her when talking about her house. Picture this you as child leaving your house to go to a play date with your friends and there house is a home. Kim’s house says to me no connection, unless there’s more to this house, that hasn’t been viewed.
I am devoted to the idea of Minimalism as a philosophy. I think of a Buddhist monk whose possessions consist of a bowl, a robe, a cap, and shoes. but remember the monk’s robe may be vermilion or saffron, his bowl carved from a beautiful piece of wood or bamboo, his sandals a deep satisfying brown or black or patchwork. Texture? For sure;think of the robe’s folds. But interior design Minimalism seems to have devolved into a quest for ways to eliminate function, personality, creativity, and comfort. I admire the quality of the craftsmanship and the beauty of the materials in KK’s home, but, ultimately, I wouldn’t want to live there, or even visit for very long.
yes love your understanding of true minimalism
Good grief! You wandered off point. Kim K is about the farthest thing from a monk as you can get! Not spiritual.
I'm glad you did a review on her house.
That house looks too cold for me especially in the winter ❄️.
Does LA have a winter?
@@maryjanedodono. 😂
Totally coolllddd😣😣😣😣
You nailed it but it's not just tasteless, it's sad. She grew up learning everything that matters is on the outside. Our homes are an extension of our real selves and it seems she never got to develop hers. She's only skin and $$$ deep. So sad.
😂😂😂😂😂yeah😂😂😂
I must admit, i kind of like it. Couldnt live like that because im a low key hoarder, but it feels really relaxing just being there for a while to clear my mind 😅
The major issue is, there is nothing to throw at the killer 😂😂😂😂😂..on the plus side clean up will be easy.. perch in the middle and feel like an otter..this video in particular was gold..so agree with everything you pointed out
Perfect review of an imperfect living space. I could only decribe this style decor as institutional. There is no personality and if your home reflects the owners, this is alarming.
It’s not alarming, it’s an accurate representation of the Kardashian’s personality - soulless, lacking depth or any character, completely superficial and totally pointless
@@keithwolfe-hughes9289 Nailed it!
@@keithwolfe-hughes9289It's for those very reasons that it's alarming
Can you imagine an interior designer describing your 60-million dollar home as:
• Empty, null and void of even any source of life
• Stale, flat, soulless, sterile
• Devoid, lacking everything a home needs
He describes the marital bedroom as "cold and distraught." LOL
And describing the entire home as "lacking everything-especially taste."
This is hilarious! And so true.
Side note: I think the above also described Kim and Kanye's marriage.
I think she’s achieved what she intended with that home, peace and quiet. I didn’t think much of that design at first, but one day I went to a coffee shop that had that same color palette/design and I felt IMMEDIATELY calm and relaxed. For someone chronically anxious and stressed that felt incredible.
Finally someone understood
I have anxiety and CPTSD. This house made me feel extremely uneasy. Maybe because it looks sterile like a big operating room. The twins from Dead Ringers could live there. 😅
I actually think this space is sooo beautiful but i would definitely warm it up with some textiles and antique wood
I feel peaceful just looking at her place. I love it. Little by little I have been getting rid of unnecessary things in my home.
I had a coworker (on the spectrum) do this. She moved into another person's home, rented out a room. Well, they didn't get along due to Covid habits. So, she rented a one bedroom- with truly nothing. She became temporarily ill, and needed help. Our coworkers went over to her place, and she had a mattress on the floor, with her clothes also in a big on the floor. It wasn't noticeable in another person's filled single family home. She got rid of clothing hangers, dishes, a table & chairs to sit / eat on- everything! Yikes! Minimalism can be artful, it doesn't have to mean totally empty- She should have just rented out a furnished (or partially) furnished place to at least function-
@@katherinechase3674get rid of?? Wouldn't she just not have these things from the outset?
@@katherinechase3674Why do you care? Is she safe and does she have what she needs to live? That’s all.
A home undoubtedly reflects the soul of the owner...from your description of some of the spaces it definitely adds up here as cold, hard & soulless...with no line visible in the plaster. Take it away Daddy...;)
no line visible in the plaster -- no line visible in her skin-tight dress ;o)
No lines in Kims plastered face , the houses strukturoitu disappears into emptiness .
You hit the Nail on the head😅
I want to run through this house with a big splashy glass of cherry Kool Aid.
Magic markers and paint of all colors splashed on the walls- by the kids- with their handprints!
😂😂😂😂
I’d be worried taking a shower and the gardener walks by 😂
Don't worry; he'll be put to death for looking upon the goddess.
Every video is like a master's class in interior design, but this one especially knocked it out of the park.
You are so kind! Thank you 🙏🏼
"cold, flat, empty". Yup. Describing her house as well as her owner.
Y’all remember that one episode in Smallville where that girl can go through everything except the colour red and her parents have her room painted completely in red in order to contain her?
I think Kim’s daughter has a specific superpower…
Apparently she wasn't told that minimal doesn't have to mean empty. Her home is utilitarian but not a home, especially with her having kids.
This look is very Axel Vervoodt. A polished wabi - simplicity in design minus the imperfection. The lines of the architectural detail also has the stamp of its designers Oana Stanescu and Dong Ping Wong, a very curvy beige version of the duos all gray linear design of the brand's Off White Singapore show room. Very Kanye I would think. Kardashian though also seems to be leaning towards the less Hollywood LA look that most American mansions seem to prefer as she hired Tadao Ando and Kengo Kuma -for her new home. Two brilliant Japanese designers whose aesthetics tend to lean towards natural materials, organic shapes, and the Japanese minimalistic look.
Bahahaha
Per AD, it's 90% Vervoordt, with Claudio Silvestrin + Vincent Van Duysen + Peter Wirtz + Dong-Ping Wong and Oana Stanescu involved as well.
This house has American Psycho vibes 😬🫨😵
my favourite house is Kendall's because it's so full of life and colour
Great review of KK's home. It is not a home I would chose to live in. Just because a person has money does not mean they have good taste. And as we old folks say , "If they like it, I love it."
It's not "Melania's Christmas Trees" level horrid, but... yes. Not quite a museum. More a mausoleum.
Hahaha! I have yet to see something that matches that level of horrid 🤣
@@mrphoenixgreymaybe your comment?
Holy hell, did you see Jill Biden’s dumpster fire Christmas decor?
No, you didn’t because it was so bad it was hidden.😳🤣
@@SuperSikntiredJesus Christ! Give it a rest.🙄
Melania is the most beautiful, classy and intelligent First Lady ever to grace the White House!!
Next level projection! Thank you for that spot on video 🙏!
I think big potted plants and trees would make all the difference.
I saw somewhere that they have another part of the house where they actually live. Such as a second kitchen and such...
I heard that as well, but wasn’t able to find any source of it online, would make sense though!
Kim did a tour of her whole house in separate videos. Like she did her kids playroom because everyone keep saying where does the kids play. She also got a playhouse outside
My first visit to your channel. And I greatly respect and agree with you !!
Absolutely no personality involved in that design or it’s saying that she is as bland as her home. For me, it’s almost sad.
I’m glad I’m not the only one
As empty of spirit as her house.
Can't imagine how chaotic her life would have to be in order for her to choose a design this vapid and devoid of personality
Just found out about you today, and I love your insight! My fiancé and I are building a house now. I hope it gets Design Daddy approved!
I love the light. In some of the spaces, especially the hallway, it's very serene and dream-like. Some creatives really need calm in order to restore and continue to be productive, imo. Interesting perspective, thanks!
“Creatives”? Really? What is she creating? Her mother controls the entire empire, Kim just shows up and plays her part. There are literally no signs of intelligent life in this home/TV set. Imho, the only thing this soulless space could possibly inspire is a mental breakdown.
I didnt realise it before, but holy crap, youre so right, wheres the lighting and doors?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Also, this reminds me of that troll someone did of an empty apartment tour and said it was "minimalism" 😂
I actually like the house, its classy and unique
@@skyegroome223 Paid minority?
I absolutely LOVE this house
Sterile! That's the word that comes to mind when I see houses like this. Not my cup of tea. Also, can you imagine cleaning the corners of that square tub? What a nightmare! Of course, we all know Kim isn't cleaning anything, so why would she care about that? 😆
9:47 Yes!! That's what I was thinking all along when you showed the house. Creepy house really 😣
Oh, she's so wise and spiritual. UCK Is this before or after she destroyed the "Marilyn" dress?
D.D. I think it would be great for you to alter the pics adding in the types of details/texture/color that would warm it up.
Great idea!
This is why we love you D Daddy.
🤍🤍
I couldn’t get beyond the faux plant, in that tiny pot, squished against that wall behind you Daddyo
To me it looks like she lives like this to avoid any emotion possible. We fill our places with memories and things we love. I would never want to trade places with the Kard no matter how much money they have.
Once you pointed it out- where is the lighting? There was none. Even billionaires need some task lighting, right?
Exactly! It’s gunna be dark at night in there 🤣
@@mrphoenixgrey Also: nowhere in the bathroom to put towels
I LOVE IT!
God forbid her children leave a toy in there. I think Kanye was thinking about starting a church. I think minimalism represents humility and ease of life. Kim referred to this home as a minimalist monastery. I think they were trying to project an image in line with what they were planning.
For the most part I love her home maybe add a few things but other than that it’s ❤
Can she put a photo or painting on the wall?!!!
I love your laugh and personality
I dont know but i think people are hating it because it kim, because i love this style
It’s really giving a method to calm a family member fighting multiple mental health issues.
That house is not calming or relaxing. Makes me nervous and very cold.
I adore this guy, he's on point!
Imma nurse. Lemme at those sinks to scrub my hands EVERYWHERE in that bathroom 😂
I would get a panic attack from entering this place. Feels like a home Dexter would build?
side note : I knew of a lady who had the emptiest bathroom ever - she was storing away everything, soap and towels included, after using it. It felt strange at first, but it was her neat freak zone where she wanted nothing to break her peace, and I got used to the process. But : all other areas were "normal", and the bathroom was small.
I love color drench when the right color is used. Especially through tout the house but it has to be off white, cream, taupe to work
Design daddy teach me with your brilliant mind
I completely agree with everything you said about her home! It is horrible & so opposite from her first home when she was single that I saw on the series so many years ago. I haven't watched the series in years. I don't admire her so why bother.
You are right👍👍👍💯💯
You made me crack up so much specially about the scary jokes I’m the bathroom 😂😂😂. Love it, thanks 🥰
You hit the nail on the head about the minimalism being all a public front and putting all of the displays of excessive consumption in hidden parts of this humongous mansion. The kitchen is so clean because it is huge, there is I believe an expansive pantry behind the main show kitchen, and a complete commercial-style kitchen in another part of the house where the actual cooking takes place! Additionally, there are multiple closet rooms in her bedroom suite that are in total larger than an average American home, and playrooms/bedrooms where all the kid's toys are hidden. I actually really like the minimal gallery quality, but would fill it with more texture and color through art and furniture. The whitewash plaster finishes and light wood/stone tones throughout are such a nice minimal blank slate that really could showcase more interesting pieces that show some life and personality.
Maybe….since it was during Covid, she was going for a “sterile, germ free” look? Hahaha…nailed it.
Poor kids, what does homey and warm mean to them now?
It’s a very specific taste that not everybody will get. I personally find her home serene and the Museum feel kinda unique. It’s all down to personal taste and if you like your home and it feels like home then you got it right. Doesn’t matter what other’s think.
Right but this is not her taste, Kanye designed this. She just accepted it as probably cool because in her head his style has to be cool. She maybe had a say here and there but if it was up to her to design it, it would 100% not look even close to this. Maybe it became her taste later, however I still don't see how this space is liveable with her "busy lifestyle", heavy makeup looks on a daily basis and 4 or 5 small children. Unless all the products people use often - like soap - are all stashed somewhere until the filming crew gets out. It doesn't look like a style but rather something heavily staged and forcibly unattainable. Because no one in their right mind would be able to actually live in the house that 99% of the time looks like this.
you summed it up...souless!!
This is more 'warm minimalism and it blends beautifully throughout her home. I love it! If it's not your vibe fine but don't cut other people down for
theirs ---
🤍
Her house looks easy to clean.
I'm not even sure "lacking taste" is quite the right phrase for it. If this space was the headquarters of a company, or a museum, or a spa, the concept wouldn't be quite as bizarre. But as a home, it just feels cold and uninviting and somehow unnerving. Not to mention how impractical it must be, especially for someone who has young children as she does.
love her home
Hahah I absolutely loved this video. I laughed until my tummy hurt 😅😅😅
I like a lot of this home and would live in it in a heart beat….but, yes, I think it needs a little bit more personality, for me. If she love it…good on her.
Help! My eyes are disturbed! Why does it feel like the walls are staring at me?
They for sure are. I’m sure it feels like a haunted house at night 😅
She has the Jean Royere Polar Bear couch and chairs!!!!!!! WOW
People should not comment on having nothing. For some people, lightness and emptiness is absolutely calming. Also, clean feeling. For some people busy is just too much
I’m more interested in wondering how Kim got her face so seamlessly plastered .. she had to have just had fresh filler with just the right amount of swelling when this video was made
She added just enough plaster to take off any bone structure she had left. The new face is just a balloon now.
This house lacks a soul😮😮 takes minimalism to a whole nother level.
'Cold' and 'souless', a reflection
I really love the house.
Obviously she’s achieved the aesthetic someone either told her she wanted or she actually wanted. But my problem is you just KNOW she’s not going to keep any of these things or style when she moves on from this space. Just not sustainable in any sense of the word.
Love your personal style AESTHETIC. (I assume commenters only get one.) 😅 I enjoyed your review of the downsides, especially the primary bed. Big fan of Kim’s home, but it was actually all Kanye. AD did do a story on it, which is worth a read. I view it as a museum of design, or an art installation, but a busy (rich) family can live in it. That is an original idea! Kanye did a collab with some heavy hitters. The kids have a playroom, with toys of their choosing, and all out on display, a la Andy Warhol and pop America. There is another room filled with a commissioned, cream colored soft sculpture by Isabel Rower, for kid lounging. The only change I would make if I lived there would be the pieces of art would be very muted, light colors, possibly indistinct or blurred subject matter, such as faces or nature, but that’s just me. Or perhaps revolving art. Heck, ya got a blank canvas to experiment on.
I’ve never been more disappointed lol.. the title makes you think you’re going to see Kim Kardashian‘s house I would think a review would be the person talking as in being a narrator over the scenes of a house instead, this guy just has the camera on him the whole time and shows you a little snippets of the house, so you really can’t get a good view of things and what he saying just seems like he wants to camera on him
I feel many times you were trying to find the word TEXTURE!!!!!! ❤ not enough of many things but texture is really what is missing!
Whether one hates or loves it, is there any point that she or anyone else will go back to letting it be known that she bought it but Kanye gutted and designed it. It was his style
Exactly. At least some of us remember the truth.
As a non american I always wonder why americans are so OBSESSED with having a kitchen in their living room? Are they really love seeing kitchen sinks and stove when they're relaxing?
in a tiny apartments, kitchen in living room is understandable....but in a huge house ?
The space where happiness goes to die.
