“I find that there’s so much chaos out in the world that once I come home, I want it to be really quiet and I want everything to feel calming,” she told Vogue during a February 2022 house tour. The “Kardashians” star noted that “everything in [her] house is really minimal” — and there’s a reason for it. I run around the house with towels,” the Skims founder told Architectural Digest in January 2018, when asked how she keeps her cream house so clean. Kardashian opted for a very simple design throughout the entire house — including its furnishings. She and ex-husband Kanye West made a slew of updates to the infamously minimalistic home, which they purchased together. STIR speaks to Kelly Weinersmith, one of the authors of the popular science book that uncovers the realities of inhabiting space and how far-fetched some space designs may be.

Kanye “Ye” West Gutted This Tadao Ando House. Now He Wants $53M for It - Hollywood Reporter

Kanye “Ye” West Gutted This Tadao Ando House. Now He Wants $53M for It.

The money seemed endless; he also shelled out $57 million, in cash, for an oceanfront Malibu house designed by famed Japanese architect Tadao Ando. And in the midst of his acrimonious divorce from Kim Kardashian, he bought a house directly across the street from her Hidden Hills residence, just because. In the cover story of Architectural Digest‘s March “Star Power” issue, the rapper-fashion designer and beauty mogul share how the $60 million mansion became their home after an extensive renovation that left them living with Kim’s mom, Kris Jenner, for nearly three years.

After West met him at the European Fine Arts Fair in Maastricht in 2013, he allegedly bought a luxury apartment in a Kanaal project (via VRT News). The pair did live in Paris for a time leading up to their wedding ceremony. They stayed in a 3,700-square-foot luxury penthouse in Paris that cost them $17,000 per night (via Wazee Supper Club). The building, known as Hotel de Pourtales, is located near a shopping district that boasts high-end couture houses in the city's 8th district. The two-story penthouse features a host of luxurious amenities, including designer furniture, natural materials, and contemporary artwork. It's not surprising that the likes of Madonna and Leonardo have stayed here in the past.

But here's the crazy part -- we're told he actually ended up punching the wrong dude -- because he's a freaking twin, and his brother was right there sitting with him as well. Here's what our sources tell us about how this went down, from their perspective ... A man accidentally bumped into Bianca in the hotel lobby, which they say was busy at the time. The guy Kanye West allegedly punched in the face was one half of a set of twins who are big shots in the restaurant scene here in L.A. Stormy Daniels' ex-husband Mike Moz told us he's collaborating on the project with Ye ...

Bianca Censori, the Australian designer and model, was “physically assaulted” earlier this week, according to a rep for her husband, Ye (formerly Kanye West), by a man who Ye then allegedly attacked. The artist formerly known as Kanye West is reportedly being investigated for allegedly punching the man who allegedly grabbed Bianca Censori. Embattled rapper Kanye West is reportedly facing more potential legal strife — this time in connection with an alleged battery incident in Los Angeles. Aispuro, who has been with the department for 19½ years, put out an emergency broadcast that included a description of the Camry, Luna said.

Almost immediately after he bought it, West set about tearing the place apart, ripping out all the windows, doors and interior finishes. The formerly four-bedroom, five-bath house is now a vacant and uninhabitable concrete shell, with its rooms open and exposed to the unforgivingly corrosive sea air. Four months ago, Kanye West put his infamously wrecked Malibu house on the market, asking a steep $53 million.

Made with 1,200 tons of concrete, 200 tons of steel reinforcement, and 12 pylons drilled more than 60 feet into the sand, the residence is a prime example of Ando’s iconic style. The home was completed in 2013 after a decade of work, and Sachs says he’s only letting it go because he spends too much time on the East Coast. Vaguely Brutalist in style, the three-story home features views of the Pacific Ocean from every level, and even doubled as an art gallery to exhibit Sach’s contemporary art collection. Its roughly 4,000 square feet of interior space contains three bedrooms on the lower level, a kitchen and living room on the middle level, and a master bedroom on the upper level. In addition, 1500 square feet of outdoor decks allow sunbathers a vantage point from which to view dolphins, seals, and whales. The house, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Tadao Ando, includes 4,000 square feet of interior space and approximately 1,500 square feet of outdoor living areas.

This week, the price tag was slashed all the way down to $39 million by the home’s listing agent, Selling Sunset star Jason Oppenheim. The controversial rapper originally purchased the property, which was designed by legendary Japanese architect Tadao Ando, in 2021 for $57 million, Architectural Digest reported at the time. With a price tag of $20,000 per month, The Sun says that Kanye's new home is packed with opulent amenities such as a 24-hour concierge, private cinema, and valet. And, if his penchant for neutrals and long-time collaboration with Axel Vervoordt give us any clues, it's safe to say the Yeezy designer is bringing those minimalist monastery vibes back. West had intended to redesign and update the 4,000-square-foot structure, but that was shortly before Adidas parted ways with the 46-year-old rapper due to his numerous antisemitic remarks, allegedly leaving his finances in disarray.

West, who also announced recently that he will run for the United States presidential elections in 2020 against Donald Trump, has always been interested in the role of design and architecture in the making of the world. Around 10 years ago, West had cited a lamp design by the famous modernist architect Le Corbusier that had been an inspiration for his hit single All of the Lights. In his intrigue to understand and be a part of architecture and design discourse, West visited the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) and Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc) in 2013 to explore the academic depths architecture has to offer. “I’ve been a Kanye fan in the past,” she previously told The Post, “but I’m definitely not a fan of maybe some of the decisions he’s made throughout his career.

He can also be seen in a video posted by TMZ attacking a celebrity photographer in the middle of an intersection in an incident from 2023; he did not face charges in that incident, either. Simple assault is a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and fines of up to $1,000 fine, according to the California Penal Code. The Los Angeles Police were reportedly planning to speak with Ye and Censori regarding the incident, according to TMZ, which broke the story. The couple had been photographed at Disneyland hours earlier on Tuesday and later appeared unfazed as both drove and rode around Los Angeles separately on Wednesday.

American rapper Kanye West, known for his music, entrepreneurship and fashion label, enjoys a secret passion for architecture. In 2018, he announced an initiative called Yeezy Home, an architecture arm to his design empire Yeezy, which would emerge as a low-income housing endeavour composed of prefabricated concrete modules. Recently, West shared on his Twitter account a new image of the prototype of his dome-shaped affordable housing for the homeless that is now under construction. Currently being developed on 300 acres of land in California, USA that West purchased a few years ago, the project has faced several hurdles. In 2019, some prototypes were demolished after the protest from the locals complaining West failed to secure permit for them.

News broke that West had purchased the Malibu mansion in late September 2021, eight months after his now ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, filed for divorce. He debuted on the Forbes billionaires list in 2020 with an estimated net worth of $1 billion, largely thanks to his lucrative Yeezy partnership with Adidas, and was worth an estimated $1.8 billion in 2021 and $2 billion by 2022. In November of 2022, West and Kardashian's divorce was finalized and Kanye was ordered to pay his ex $200,000 per month in child support, in addition to half of the educational and security costs for their four children. It was shortly before the divorce was finalized, in October of 2022, that West’s bizarre racist and antisemitic behavior began to tarnish his public image (and erode his net worth). That month, West wore a "White Lives Matter" shirt to a fashion show in Paris and Vice released previously unaired clips of an interview by Fox News' Tucker Carlson in which the rapper made bigoted statements about Jewish people and spread outlandish conspiracy theories. West was then briefly suspended from Twitter for threatening to go “death con 3 on Jewish people,” told Chris Cuomo that Black people signing to "Jewish record labels" was a form of "modern day slavery," and reports emerged about his pro-Hitler and pro-Nazi remarks.

Soon after he legally rescinded his right to live in the Hollywood Hills mansion with Kim, Kanye took residence in another popular part of California — Malibu. TMZ reports that Kanye splashed out a fortune of $57.3 million to purchase one of the exclusive homes in the United States designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando. As an architectural connoisseur and an art enthusiast, West seems to be a fitting owner of the space. There's no denying that West has managed to achieve an impressive amount of success during his long professional career, including many hits, cutting-edge music, and fashion lines. A significant part of West's fortune is his expansive real estate portfolio across the entire United States, including the sleek New York City apartment, luxurious Los Angeles mansion, and Kanye's Wyoming ranch. Here is a closer look at all of his homes and the story behind each property.

(Don't worry Kim, we'll be happy to stay at any of your properties. Have your people call our people!) If it's been a minute since you caught up on the Kardashian-Jenner's real-estate empire, we have you covered. After 16 years living her life in front of the camera—and, sure, millions of fans and followers—Kim Kardashian never shies away from offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse into her headline-making milestones. But on the most recent episode of The Kardashians, the SKIMS founder shared some unexpected tea about her co-parenting life with rapper Kanye West. Remember that Ye also owns acres of land in Calabasas, his childhood home in Chicago, a house in Belgium, and plenty of other real estate, too, so he could easily move somewhere else if he got tired of dwelling in a luxurious motel. Ye's enormous Malibu home boasted a brutalist façade typical of Ye's tastes, giant windows overlooking the sea, and approximately 4,000 square feet, which is a pretty big footprint for Malibu.
