The funniest part of this is Kendall claiming that she cooks in that kitchen. Girl, we have seen you use a knife.
That said, her house is the only one I would ever actually live in.
I can’t believe I forgot about this and didn’t make a comment 🫠🫠
lol right!!? 😹
I believe her exact words were as she butchered a CUMBER!: “ i’M NOT A GOOD CUTTER!” Just like as a presenter of an awards show where she said “I’M NOT A GOOD READER” . . . 🙄🤔🧐🙄😳 But just like her mom & big sisters (Kimbully & KoKo🤡) taught her, she is a pathological liar!😂😂😂
Hey, at least she uses a knife 😂 something her other family members don’t know how to use.
Her house is like 3 interior designers couldn't agree on a design, so they all decided to do their own thing.😂😂
Yeah, her, her mother and an actual designer.
😂 True
Exactly!
Oh honey….that stone sink in the powder room is straight out of the Flintstones!! 😂😂
Be careful of your silks and knits around that thing.
Omg, YES! 😂
Loved that part 😍
Sidenote: We don't put art over the bed in California due to earthquakes. It's a good way to get hurt or die in the middle of the night. I agree, I was a bit surprised by the decor of her house. It doesn't seem to fit her vibe. I narrowly escaped disaster during the Northridge quake. For some reason, I was restless and slept on the sofa that night and it hit very early morning. My bed had the art above it on the bed, the tv on the opposite wall, a lamp and the shattered shards of glass from the bulbs in my vanity all on the bed. I would have been hurt for sure had I been in there. It was my first big quake since I'd arrived in CA so I learned after that how to protect myself. lol So, I'd guess that's why there's no art above the bed.
I don't live in CA, but was thinking the same thing. Years ago I'd heard or read about it being a safety issue in case of an earthquake. Makes sense.
You are so wise to be cautious! After an entire lifetime in California we recently moved out of state. The earthquake mentality is ingrained. Even though they don’t happen here I still push things back on the shelves and feel sketchy about hanging glass or heavy pictures over the bed. It’s definitely a thing.
I have a large unframed canvas painting over my bed so no earthquake worries. Pinned to the wall and looks great.
California born and raised and we do art above the bed but you earthquake proof your furniture and decor. I’ve survived MANY major earthquakes!
You are right, I live in Mexico and I would never put a painting nor a mirror over my bed.
When I first started as a hairstylist, just out of beauty school, my first boss told me if you give the customer what they NEED you'll be successful but if you give the customer what they WANT, you'll be a millionaire. I feel like you can't impose too much of your own taste onto a client. They know what they want and you just have to make it work for them.
Her bedroom could be any hotel room. It isn’t giving me zen vibes or understated luxury. It’s giving me “room on the other side of the wall looks the same” and check out is at 10:00.
Hahaha! You’re not wrong 🤣
“Room on the other side of this wall looks the same”. Sarah that just killed me 😂😂😂
My reaction to the stone sink in the powder room - that will be rough and snag your $5000 silk top!
I wonder who “ makes dinner” in that kitchen, she couldn’t even cut a cucumber in the how lol
😅😅😅
Look like her designer was taking NyQuil and DayQuil at the same time 😂
😂😂😂 ... 👍👍👍
You're a savage😂🤣🤣
Looks like her designer has multiple personalities 😅
Her home is so much better than Kim's beige mausoleum :D I actually hate matchy matchy everything, so I love all the different chairs around the dining table. Cant stand marble, so would never have that in my home.
Agree, I love going to an eclectics house; so many wonderful stories behind many pieces. Eclectics are never boring.
So true! I'd live in this home any day over Kim's creepy empty house!!
You need a spurty fountain in a courtyard. The water cools the air. You open the rooms onto the courtyard. Grew up with that architecture, miss it, would love it.
Yes, I suspect it probably wasn't working. There is usually a small jet or bubbler in the center, then it spills over the sides so you have some vertical element and calming sound.
The downstairs clothing area was for samples and packing. She gets a lot of samples that come on racks from her stylist and she picks from them what she wants to wear or take on a trip. She gets compensated for wearing certain designers because every time she wears something, it sells a ton for the designer. So that's what that other area was. She doesn't actually own those clothes per se, what she doesn't want to wear just goes back.
I noticed that someone was at pains to stack books all over the place.. Kendall clearly wants to give the impression that she is a big reader, and I'm not saying she is lying, but.... I would expect her to become more articulate, if she really is reading all those books...
I feel like the stone sink in the bathroom would snag materials very easily. Leaning against it would be a nightmare.
This is the first of these celebrity AD tours where I could see myself living in the house. I hate certain parts (that sink is a nightmare and I’m not huge into farmhouse), but the house feels like a house instead of a photo spread.
I will give it that, it was the first AD tour that was very homey and lived in
Exactly….. It looks like a home to be lived in not a mausoleum or showpiece . You can right in and just sit down …..
Love your content and commentary but the clips of the home were too quick! Can you make them longer and consider leaving up a photo as you discuss? I kept having to rewind because I was missing the clips.
I JUST left a comment basically saying that I clicked on this video because I wanted to see Ms. Jenner's home. Not the narrator. Too much of him and not enough of the home.

Dining room looks like snack bar for gardeners
The powder room sink looks like one of those foam coolers painted tan.
Hahaha! You’re not wrong! Someone else commented the flinstones and it killed me 🤣🤣
I love the house. 1920's Spanish Revival is my favorite style of architecture. I like the curved archways, use of wood, metals and stone, all the built in details, a courtyard always and the integration of the outside space with the inside... Nice house.
I think her home is very well put together and creative , I’m also an interior designer and antiques dealer I’ve been into antiques since I was like 8 I’m 43 now so as far as you thinking it’s “ strange” for her to like old things but wear new expensive clothes Is hilarious to me I mean should she be wearing an old Muu muu like Mrs Ropper on threes company 😆? I believe your home whether your a millionaire or a regular person should reflect what YOU love and brings you joy , ohhh and I thought her closet was cool, very colorful and spacious and I’m sure not her only one, all in all I’d give her an 8 outta 10, but here’s my little critique what’s up with that enormous teal zebra 🦓 stripped chair you sat in ? Did you mention value village?? 😳😳😳🤣🤣🤣 Fun channel BTW 👏😉
agreed! And you're right that chair is hideous
@@JesseSaintJesseIt's an eye opener for sure...and the chair's patterning clashes with the extensive tattooing.
I don’t see why you don’t have more followers, great explanation to details.. you had me at Value Village 😂
Maybe because of the criticism some people don’t like people like him
I think it's because he doesn't give the videos time to breathe for lack of a better explanation. It's almost like motion sicknessfrom all the stop starts. I really wanted to like him him but can't
My favourite interior design channel on youtube💓You express yourself so well design daddy!
That means so much! Thank you so so much 🤍🤍
I'm always laughing with your naturally acting, it is what it is for you and that is the best thing of your strong personality. I love your channel and thank you for share with us. Best vibes from Miami.
That just made my day 🥰
You had me at her Outfit. So Fast And So Funny. Love from Ottawa
Thank you 🙏🏼 it contrasts the whole style of this house 🤣
I don’t know that it does. It’s a very vintage inspired look…like you would see this in the 60s/70s which is Gucci’s MO.
I don't like the farmhouse style per se, but at least it looks homely., I guess? I like the hallway, here in Chile traditional country houses (inherited from Spain of course) - have those, with windows on both sides and they're so nice and cool during the summer. But the gold hot tub is HORRIBLE, lol
You hit the nail on the head so many times! Great analysis!! You have awesome taste!
You always make me smile 😊 Thank you 💓
Awe thanks so much for watching 🤍🤍
The sink looks like the troughs my grandparents have in their rural farm in Belgium for the horses and cattle to drink water from. They have an old fashion well that they pump the water into a similar-looking one, but much bigger. Some designer must have sold her on ideas of what is "cool" to have and she said OK to everything. Now the house is just a mishmash of different things that may be expensive, but just somehow do not give you a cohesive look or feel. I think she can use your help to get it together.
Design Daddy to the rescue! Well make a show like Nanny 911 🤣
“I love how the gone looks homey and lived in” 😐 me knowing damn well nobody is using those 2 lonely bar stools and that powder room.
We all remember her "cutting" a cucumber.......
I feel like I could have thrown a joke in there about this and completely forgot 🤫
Totally agree with you especially the kitchen, bedroom and of course her outfit LOL
Great entertainment, Phoenix! Thanks for sharing. The main take-away? I am glad I'm not the only name-challenged person.
Haha I was like, which one is it?! I’m also not a “pop culture” followers so I’m not in the know for most celebrities
That dining room made me tear up so clumsy you’re right on that outfit and same designer worked on her mom s house hence the older look. Great honest review
Thank you! I know it wasn’t the most ‘positive’ review. Overall the house and its architecture is gorgeous in all its glory, but a major disconnect,
This video is great….😂your statement about her Gucci had me howling
you look so good in this video 🤩the tattoos against that beautiful blue shirt
You are so kind. Thank you so much 🥰🥰
I agree with you on the Courtyard but I loved the mis-match chairs in the dining room. It's a conversation starter.
I love the hanging rack with the copper pans, I keep my copper pans shinning beautifully with the help of Bar keepers cleanser, you dont sweat trying to clean that copper.
I love how you change your mind!!😂
Our little secret 😉
😂your commentary was funny. I kept watching for this reason lol
That means a lot! Thank you. Gotta have some fun with it! More reviews to come 🤍
hey daddy! where is your armchair from? love it
Agreed on a house with a courtyard DD. . . in a perfect world I'd be wealthy instead of good looking and would have a house with an interior courtyard. Instead since I have beer dreams on a tapwater budget I'll have to make do with my veranda. But on a different topic . . . your set! I love how the camera kept pulling back to show the magic! and that chair! looks like something I'd have to fight the cat for to sit in. ;)
Awe thank you so much! We’re trying out some new angles in the studio and I just got the chair so I had to show it off 😉
At least her house looks like someone lives there (i mean, she has lights, unlike Kim's white nightmare), but I agree it looks like it's a bunch styles mixed together that don't look that great individually and as an ensemble.
I love it !! It’s elegant, classic, eclectic, and cozy I think it matches her ❤ I also think out of many AD homes this is one of my faves ❤
thank you for explaining that the design didn’t match the personality just a designer who paid to show their own ideas.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one thinking this!
Man, life goals to have a James Turrell installation in my home! If nothing else, at least she has great taste in regards to an installation artist. I’ve been obsessed with his Three Gems installation at the De Young Museum in SF for decades, and am planning to visit some of his various other landscape installations during my upcoming travels. Of all the various easy/decor art that could be used in a space like this, I do really respect tapping such a special and accomplished artist in her home.
Shout out to some of the designers, cause this house is all their designs and thoughts. I enjoyed Design Daddy’s takes 😊
I love these videos!!!!!!
OMG the chair you are sitting in. I am sorry but I don’t see you having this. It’s awful, Alice in Wonderland.
Love you, but hate the chair. This home is so much more normal than Kim's, but that gold tub is ugly and ridiculous.
Haha! We’re trying out some different layouts for the studio, planning on collecting some different chairs to swap out to have some fun :)
Living room is just too cluttered and furniture pieces look cheap. I like the powder room. There are some nice details and some bad ones. Biggest issue is the overall inconsistency of the design throughout the house.
Agreed!
I love how you effortlessly combine colors and textures to create a visually captivating and inviting space. Very inspiring content, kudos to your team for their awesome work
That means a lot thank you! I have such a great team behind me supporting me 🥰 I’ll let them know
My favorite part of this house was the hallway flanked by French doors letting in natural light. It reminded me of Meryl Streep and Alec Balwin changing a light bulb in the film It's Complicated. Right?
Im so happy someone doesnt like mismatched chairs like me. Thank you for that!
She got that idea from friends with Monica's kitchen let's be honest.
It bothers me to no end 😅😅
I inherited my dining set, handed down from my great grandmother (who passed before I was born). I am familially contractually required (says Mom) to keep it as long as I'm in the US. Thank goodness great grandma had good taste. For some reason I've seen designers stating that the chairs and tables should not match, which I think is weird. Non-matching is for my tableware and art (oil painting and Chinese painted scrolls).
OMG. Most of the furniture looks like it came from a thrift store or from yard sales. And maybe most of the art did too. The neon sign probably didn't cost that much. Probably the first thing we saw did cost a little bit of money, but... it's very possible that most of it really wasn't that expensive. Even the outfit could have been a used ebay find or something. And the bed and patio furniture - were probably just custom made, and that entailed sewing together a big bean bag out of upholstery material and then buying some cheap foam mattresses to stuff them with. I would imagine the house was expensive, and I guess some things were, like the faucet in the kitchen sink, and probably the tub, even though it is a garish color, so it could have been on sale... but, I bet after they bought the house they didn't have enough money for furniture. I hope that's the case and a "designer" didn't actually rob her blind.
Couldn’t agree more
You are a Love! Your chair is sublime perfection. Australia
Awe thanks so much for watching 🥰🥰
What is important is that she is happy with her house ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Great review, I totally agree with you. It looks kind of unfinished, not as unfinished as her sister's white space, but still unfinished 🤔
Agreed!
Who else went here right after reading the captions? 🤭✨
😉
I agree with everything you said. However I love the clothe.
I love all of Your opinions !🙂
"From one artist to another" .....you just called Kandle's finger painting art 😂
Everything is gorgeous one off my favorites. They honored the Spanish house with bit eclectic 👌
She can have anything she wants, and she grew up in very luxurious homes. She's showing us that she wants opposite of that, a more lived in look, but at anytime she could change everything and do the whole decorator showhouse thing. Makes me like her more.
“We talked about this…”. That line led directly to the “Subscribe” button 😂
I didn’t want this to end and hung on to every word. I loved, loved loved this yet I love all your vids. Thanks for the laughs and your time, you nailed my thoughts exactly on the off beat decor of this home. This house could be stunning, I feel bad for the house 😂. Take good care, Design Daddy. ☮️💜
That means so much. Thank you, thank you for always watching 🥰🥰
@@mrphoenixgrey Always 🙌
I agree with you, my dream home has an interior courtyard! Actually, I have an almost interior courtyard in my current home.
The dream!!
Totally agree the sink in the powder room is a cleaning nightmare.
While you're talking about kendalls 🛋, ima talk about your 💺; I FREAKING LOVE ❤IT!!!!! I DON'T KNOW IF ITS A CREAM OR GOLDISH YELLOW, BUT BLUE & YELLOW ARE MY FAVORITE COLORS 💛 ✨️ 😉
The bedroom "neon sign" is a Tracey Emin
Me too..I have played the Sims since 2000 😂 I've always had a courtyard 😂 Someday, I will have one !!
First time on your channel. I would have preferred to see more of the split screen so that we can see what you’re commenting not have to stop and rewind to see the example.
I absolutely loved The Sims reference....🥰🥰🥰
I actually love how Kendall's house actually feels homey unlike most of her family's homes. I also think it reflects her vibe really well if you've ever really watched the show - Kendall is very much a homebody and has a lot of anxiety, so the cozier, less modern aesthetic fits her IMO.
I will give her that. It’s one of the first and only celebrity homes that I’ve seen that actually looks and FEELS lived in 🥰
It would be interesting to see a house that he likes! 13:46
Your point is valid, but he is making comments from the design point of view, and I think all his comments are very accurate. Even though I like the gold tub. Lol
I have also always wanted a courtyard
I kept thinking…. Don’t stop it yet…. Let me look a sec 😩
Completely concur
I don’t think it’s Kendall building a home next to her mother, I’m pretty sure it’s Khloe. I mean I guess Kendall could build one on the other side of her mother’s home but I think she likes a bit more space between her and her momager or whatever Kris calls herself.
Never would have imagined that as her home. This I’m sure is one of her many homes.
Who are we kidding, no one uses those pots.
I love her outfit!
I love layering rugs, but 1. It doesn't work in her dining room, either the rugs together or in the space at all. It's too casual. 2. The "warmth" she claims it brings could have instead been created by bringing in a set of matching upholstered chairs.
You were criticizing her first closet, but you were not paying attention. That first closet is where she tries on different looks for her jobs. It’s not her official closet. You couldn’t even get her name right. I like the fact that she designed her house in a way that it appealed to her without being pretentious.
The dining room looks like a Fred Flintstone attempt to update out of the Stone Age. Lol
Living in California, there is one thing that most do not do, and that is too hang something on the wall behind your bed & that's because of earthquakes. Of course you can make sure and double bolt & secure it to make sure it wont fall, but just for my peace of mind, I myself don't have anything hanging behind my bed. Too each his own, but I absolutely LOVE everything about this house.
Hi, just a thought.... I am trying to look at the house and listen to what you are saying, but the video keeps cutting out and showing you while you are talking, but I don't need to see you as you are talking, I need to see the house
Couches are from Abell estate sales
Yep you’re correct. I hate those pans. I always look at something on “how do we keep this clean” that’s why I hate vanities that are open underneath. Same with those cloud couches. I never buy a couch without pillows being attached. They get sloppy and old looking fast. And please that bathtub, gross. Chairs if you are going to mix them at least have the same texture whats with that outdoor woven chair being there?
Phoenix! Anyone from Los Angeles will NEVER put artwork over our beds. My friends and I realized we just don’t do it cuz we are all PTSDed by past EARTHQUAKES. If there is a big one, that could happen at any time..that artwork is on our heads 😂.
You know what, I never took that into consideration, and you are absolutely right! I will redact that statement
as a Chilean (we have way more earthquakes than you guys, lol) it depends on how you hang them! I've never had issues with artwork falling, even after the big 2010 earthquake, which was 8.0 on the Richter scale. I do have a frame over my bed very securely hanged, but I don't have anything hanging over my daughter's crib. What you for sure don't want to do is have shelves with books or other stuff near and/or over your bed, and of course keeping the glasswear and fancy plates in the bottom shelves of the kitchen.
@@mrphoenixgrey btw totally love your vids😊
@@franug totally agree about the book shelves and the plates and yes😂 you do have even stronger earthquakes then us. U have a LOT more courage then me having something framed over your head 😂. Glad no frames for your baby girl 🥰.
I don’t like having art work above my bed. I would like the bedroom as blend in terms of art display as possible. However, subtle pattern wall covering, luxurious bedding, table lamps will do for my bedroom. 😊
Love your videos but I’m a bit disappointed/stressed out by the seams on your Mama Chair. Is it a licensed version from B&B Italia? It’s gorgeous otherwise
That stone sink. Eww. Germs from the toilet. I cannot. That gold tub, eww get it away from me. Those lights are not design daddy approved lol. I HATE chairs that don't match. And that teal kitchen makes me want to whip out some paint from her painting room and repaint LOL
I’m glad I’m not the only one that fells this way 🤣🤍
Let us see the house!!!
LOL...I just said the same thing in my comment. I'll go search and find a video that actually focuses on the home and not the host.
11:50 It's hilarious that her sign says "your" when it should say "you're."
It's not like I'm a fan of Kardashians lol))) But In one of the interviews she was saying I'm dreaming about moving to some farm and cuddling with animals, so no wonder she chose that farm style... And also she's the quietest and closed among the sisters, so I think it really matches her personality, not staged imho
I’m so over farmhouse 😩
Say it louder for the people in the back 🙏🏼🙏🏼
To each his own; trend setters often appear vapid. Better to use items you love .
I feel like that gold bathtub is perfectly representative of the whole family, so in a way... fitting? 😂
As someone who also has an aversion to banality, this was everything thankyou thankyou thankyou
Wow thank you for sharing your thoughts.i live in Australia 🇦🇺 my home is more classy and tasteful than that home.you can’t buy class and taste no matter how much money you have.
Hmmm…this is a look. The chair with your shirt gives King Tut vibes. 😂
Trying out a new way of filming 😅 gunna have to coordinate my outfit better haha
Her home is lovely. Not my style, but lovely. Being single is a gift so kudos to her for enjoying her young years
Great architecture! Beautiful light. Those couches look like someone tucked fabric (leather?) loosely around an old couch...that goes all the way to the floor...? Odd. That rock sink looks like you have to LEAN way over it to wash your hands and make sure not to catch your silk - or nylon! - fabric on the sink or else you'll come away with pulls in the fabric! Wtf with the neon sign. On the other hand, to me, that seems more her, than farmhouse - as you say. Agree that the bedroom is dreary. It does seem like it's a mish-mash of styles - which probably makes sense for someone in their 20's who's still trying to figure out who she is.
Agreed!
