Alicia Keys's contemporary home exterior celebrates the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces

Alicia Keys.

When Alicia Keys bought the iconic La Jolla 'Razor House' in 2022, we were blown away by the architectural wonder. The sleek 10,653-square-foot mansion, designed by Wallace E. Cunningham, features in commercials for Visa and Calvin Klein and is thought to be the inspiration behind Tony Stark's lair in Iron Man. Despite its futuristic design, one of the most impressive aspects of the home is the way it embraces nature.

The 'Razor House' is known as one of the world's best homes, and for good reason. The walls are made almost completely of glass, creating an instant connection between the indoors and the vibrant blue of the California coast outside. A gorgeous infinity pool off the edge of the home drops seamlessly to the surrounding mountains. The shape of the home allows a visitor to pass from different areas of the house by going out of doors.
