Layered, textural, patterned, heritage interiors are our bread and butter at Homes & Gardens, but that doesn't mean we think simplicity is boring. In fact, it's sometimes only by stripping away the color and texture from a room that the bones really shine. Kim Kardashian's 'minimalist monastery' home in the Hollywood Hills wonderfully demonstrates this principle.
In 2020, the Skims mogul and her then-husband, Kanye West, worked with the Belgian designer and tastemaker Axel Vervoordt to transform their suburban Los Angeles home into an otherworldly, minimalist masterpiece. Every wall and ceiling is finished with a matte bone plaster, creating a shift in perspective as you walk through the door, as if the design goes on forever.
