oh my god architectural digest
it's been a long time
i've missed you
you want to come in
[Music]
all right welcome this is the foyer area
uh in new york city apartments i assume
you've seen new york city apartments i
don't know if you live in manhattan but
i live in manhattan
and in general our apartments are very
very small compared to the rest of the
world my foyer is about uh two feet by
two feet this is a little uh
thing that you put on the wall where you
have like a bunch of pens i think i've
used this once in the year and a half
i've been living here
um and you write things on it you know
what i mean you're supposed to write
things on it like inspirational things
or like little love notes to
yourself positive quotes things like i
don't do that
[Music]
so this is a bookcase this is sort of
the ps de resistance or one of them in
the very small apartment here oh this is
embarrassing look the stranger things
book is like front and center that's so
embarrassing but also so is two copies
of don quixote neither of which i've
read i like this bookcase a lot it's got
these uh
little things i think my designer kyle
we'll be talking about kyla bunch this
tour kyle uh calls these i think they're
called god lights or something which i
don't
maybe it's because it makes the bookcase
look angelic or something like that this
is a nice little uh ladder thing which
slides along the wall which i think is
super cool i only use it to get to my
mtv movie award that i won for stranger
things which by the way is the worst
made award in the history of awards as
you can see it's completely falling
apart
and it did that on day three of my
having it
[Music]
all right i'll tell you a little bit
about the story of this apartment so i
came in here with this amazing designer
architect
guy and we sort of re-envisioned the
whole thing so we put in this wall i
love these like pocket door things or
whatever seeing this little like
fancy handle thing it just kind of
disappears into the wallpaper it's so
awesome i love this wallpaper too it's
got some like leopards and tigers and
stuff now these animals would really
coexist
this close proximity in the wild but you
know it's wallpaper it's not real life
so this is basically like the room where
you live in there's no like
den or study or things like that it's
basically one room so this is the
kitchen table i really love this table
it's like an old kind of like farm house
table we found and then we redesigned
the whole kitchen as well it was funny
like when you redesigned something like
i found this stove
even though i'm not much of a cook i
like the color of this stove a lot and i
just thought it was a really cool stove
and then i was like wow that stove is a
very specific green and now i have to
design like an entire kitchen color
scheme around this particular weird
green of the stove as you can see
there's like a rail up there too which
is where that ladder that was on the
bookcases it can come up here too and
you can get into those shelves up there
when you live in
in loft apartments like this there is a
majestic quality to the height of the
ceilings which i really like and so i
wanted to build something where there
was kind of a cordoned off office
section
but also that kind of showcased the fact
that this was high and i like
a lot of plants because my old place i
could never maintain plants so this
place has like light and
it fits bigger and so i can put a lot of
plants in it which is great it just
makes the space feel
more alive this is one of my most prized
possessions it was a gift
masters of the universe which was a film
that was made late 80s early 90s or
something but it has frank langella in a
ton of prosthetics as a skeletor which i
heard him interviewed as he considers
one of his greatest roles of all time
and i just like the fact that
a really great actor that i admire could
do a film and
full prosthetics that wasn't received
very well
[Music]
this is the living area and um we have
this design for the space i love this
color it's made of this nice soft
material couches are hard couches are
hard to find a good cow so you enjoy
sitting on it's always been the bane of
my existence i've had some very bad
couches in my
my time on this earth so there's no tv
what i don't watch tv of course i watch
tv what do you want to watch
want to watch some netflix come on let's
do this
there's a projector
up there but this is great you know
can uh
watch whatever you want we could watch
the great british baking show if you you
guys probably don't have time
i think this is pretty cool
so
um there's a public theater in new york
city which is uh shakespeare in the park
and so they did a revival reading of
romeo and juliet with uh meryl streep as
uh juliet and kevin kline as romeo
and chris walken as mercutio and there's
yours truly and i had uh like two lines
i think i played like a page but i'm
happy to play page in that company
this is exciting you'll see that in may
so the bedroom again it's like fairly
simple it's just a place to like sleep
and maybe read a book and
maybe do some pilates there's three
closets over here which are really cool
again they have these things where it's
like you open the door and the light
comes on new york living can be kind of
hard because there's always light around
like the city never gets dark but
this these windows i had these like
blackout things put in and i'll show you
[Music]
we'll just pause and watch the windows
go down sometimes i'll do this all day
just up and down watch the windows go
down
oh wait oh my god this candle
tragedy averted
you do have to be careful about that
so the last part is the bathroom you
know some of these manhattan apartments
to sell them for more you call it a two
bathroom and so this was two bathrooms
and they were just two bathrooms like
right on top of each other
with
you know two toilets and like one of
them had a shower and it was ridiculous
so we came in we tore all that down we
built these closets then we built this
bathroom which i really love this is a
steam shower we found this tile which i
really like i mean one of the ideas i
guess behind the bathroom was that it
doesn't have a window in it we were like
if it's not going to have a window
why not embrace that and make it kind of
like this you know
spa type feel like you're almost sort of
in this
spa this is where the toilet is a little
room with the toilet this wallpaper i
think is really cool it's got a lot of
like new york scenes to it and then i
think this is really cool there's like
this uh vaulted ceiling that kyle
designed so it feels like
some odd cathedral i also like a really
big bathtub and i've never had one
because i've lived in tiny tiny new york
apartments and i'm a big guy
so it's kind of funny to have me
squished into a
small bathtub which i have for most of
my life and it has four taps everybody
always comes in here is always like four
taps why four taps he's like why not
four taps i don't understand why
everyone gets so
but you can you know turn them all on
and it fills up very quickly i love this
bathroom i think it's great and i don't
want to throw kyle under the bus
my architect designer who's fantastic
and you designed this thing i love him
we knew you guys were coming today was
a lie when i pretended like i didn't
know that you were coming so we knew
you're coming and so we art directed a
little bit of the apartment one of which
is
kyle
likes these candelabras and we put these
uh big candle lumpers i don't want you
to think that i'm a big candelabra
bathtub type guy
