Inside Ryan Murphy’s Bel Air Home Built By Richard Neutra | Architectural Digest

- Today, AD takes you inside Ryan Murphy’s beautiful Bel Air home. Designed in 1955 by Richard Neutra, the Brown House features what is believed to be the only double-wide living room designed by the legendary architect. Working with designer Trevor Cheney, the 'Feud' creator wanted the interiors to create a sense of conflict and act as a reimagining of classic midcentury design. Decorative pieces from the past 500 years of mid-centuries contrast a predominantly contemporary art collection. Murphy’s home might be breaking several traditional design rules, but it’s also full of whimsy and intrigue, opening up a world of creative possibilities. “I have discovered that the only thing that truly interests me is a space in which things are in conflict. It’s the same in storytelling. A real design conversation starts to unfold when things that aren’t supposed to go together, for whatever outdated reasons, begin to suggest unexpected affinities and surprising similarities.”
'Feud: Capote vs. The Swans' is streaming on FX now.

I’m getting “American Psycho” vibes. No?
Having A-list actresses narrate your house's history and video tour for AD is a FLEX
ridiculous! and so pretentious! GROSS
As an artist myself, I find this inspiring.
@@lavaughnforbes8008 as an artist myself, I find it gauche and try hard.
Seriously a flex, It's interesting how they're keeping the Hollywood aesthetic alive,
That Kardashian voice was so grating I almost turned it off, but the video was saved by Watts’ mesmerizing voice.
So we're just not gonna talk about that wall art, huh
Dude doesn’t eat babies or anything
I didn’t care much for the wall art, BUT art is subjective to the owner.
I thought this channel was about architecture, not art. I want to see the house, not the weird stuff that's in it.
... so he's selling the house.
He just bought it
the narration ate. lol I’m like wait I recognize that vocal fry
Wow. Those were the longest eleven and a half minutes of my life.
And I will never get them back.
ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz......
I loved this style of video!
its like they tried to muffle out kim k's vocal fry
this was very tranquil
I enjoyed that this was narrated by so many lovely people, interesting way to do an open door episode.
The pack-a-day vocal fry - wonder who that was . . . 😂
The comments are funny. I agree. This is a wierd one. HAL with a female voice.
You lost me at "entry ramp"
At least I have the same windchime.
Jeff Koons and 'Masterpiece' ... an oxymoron.
bespoke try-hardness
I had to double take, is Kim narrating?
She’s one of them.
I stopped and changed to the next by3:45…..oh please
ai? For script and narration?
Kim Kardashian is one of the narrators.
The opening credits tells you which actresses are narrating.
This felt like a group project thrown together last minute by actresses who can confidently pull of a shovel full of BS.
I don’t understand the hate. Can’t we all just bash Kim Kardashian wtf is she … No? Okay whatever.
This is overly dramatic to the point of absolute bathos: descending piano scales over the image of a desk "glow[ing] Ligurian"?
What’s the name of the song playing in the info of the video?! 😍
That’s why I came here too! Shazam wouldn’t tell me
Hate this place.
See Neutra click video
Are you kidding me- this was so meh.
great video annoying music
This video is boring and pretentious.
Seriously?
@MarianRousey-fe8pp ❤
Pretension, thy name is Ryan Murphy.
The narration made me lol 😂
pretentious!
mf couldn’t even show up to his own house
I agree. I love it!
literally after the first clip jump lol
@@MichaelLaCorteArtDepartment100%. It shows that no matter how much money and fame you have, you can still be vapid & insecure. 😂
Too many close-up shots. You don't see the impact of the architecture.
Kinda felt like a magazine or publication, yep.
@@that1thickpugg738what, AD feels like a magazine?
agreed
Agreed. It's a great film of collected objects and it captures the play of light and shadow... but what does the house look like?
This whole thing veers very close to an SNL parody. The narration was painful.
Ryan Murphy is full of himself. He is simply an auteur who made a ton of money and has no taste.
This whole video and house reek of insecurities, over compensation and boredom. I have never disliked an AD video or property... until this one.
I feel like I’m at the educational movie they play before you get to walk through the museum.
Is the narration supposed to be sarcastic or ironic? It’s so over the top, it can’t possibly be meant to be taken seriously. If it’s a parody, congrats it’s Documentary Now level hilarious.
I mean, “Famously yodeled.” Really?
Why is AD doing a commercial for Ryan’s Murphy’s house? This video gives me the creeps.
The house itself gives me the creeps.
Are we even surprised that media people are bunch of pervs
i came to the comments to see if anyone was feeling this way lol. the narrating is so weird too.
Same
@@beautyallaroundme724 it’s a piece of art. Useless ornaments give me the creeps.
wtf did I just watch
that's hilarious!
😅😅😅😅
The Tiffany lamp wasn't chic or ironic. It was out of place as was a great deal of objects. Furthermore, this house is undeniably mid-century, we can all agree... the very random objects didn't make the house eclectic, just random. There wasn't a flow, it wasn't ironic. It just looked like a wealthy person on a shopping spree who lacks a vision.
I have never commented on TH-cam, but this was absurd for me. RM did not want to be relatable as all the other famous, highly notable individuals, & just take us through his house himself like a down to earth person? Instead he has it scripted, narrated by actresses he’s worked with, and shoots it in a way like every idea is the first time anyone has ever thought to do it. Go elsewhere sir. Part of why so many love the video format AD has been doing is it allows people to feel they have gotten to know the person a bit more. This did the opposite for me personally & I see some others agree. I’m see some still enjoyed it, but wouldn’t everyone have liked to get “to know” a bit more of Ryan through him, vs. all these famous actresses?
It's art sweetheart! Lighten up, also, you should probably never comment on a TH-cam again!
it's pretentious and not in the sincere style that was AD!
YES THIS. I literally for a second thought he had died, and paused the video at 5 seconds to check....what other possible reason could warrant such a stupid dramatic video?
I dunno, he's a filmmaker? who likes to tell stories and not make it about himself but instead the artists and designers? @@arnoldpalma95
It's stupidity

@@lisathompson5048 Oh, why not.🤷♂
@@lisathompson5048 Why NOT!!
I wish i could see more of the house, like the usual videos of the channel
Channel - two "n"s sweety.
@@zeecee5881 my bad
The narration was just too much… in a bad way. I couldn’t watch this one all the way through.❤
When I hear “reimagine Neutra” I shut down. Let’s reimagine the Parthenon next.
Thanks for ruining the video with all the absurd closeups.
this place was cool but the presentation was so overwhelmingly pretentious.
I mean the house IS beautiful, but how pretentious is this video?
This isn’t new, it’s just a wealth flex.
Going to stop shilling for people who make mediocre film media or show some real design innovation?
I remember seeing a modern bookcase/storage boxy thing plopped into a baroque manse in an advert in your magazine in the 90’s, when it was paper only. The contrast of neoclassical pieces, contemporary art and mid century modern shows that mid modern stripped down functions as a backdrop. Not as pretty as the Frick, mind you, but not dissimilar.
These types of videos should have financial stakeholders listed like they're sponsor logos on sports jerseys
without even googling I can tell you Murphy is looking to sell this lmao
@@corhydron111 could be, but he only bought it in 2022 so that'd be strange
Seriously-UNSUBSCRIBING
Lovely bones, but the decor does nothing for it. Just screams trying too hard to be different.
Someone should do a study on the Semiotics of the word ´European´ in AD videos
You lost me at Kim k
I was upset Sarah and Angela involved themselves in such pretentious foolishness by Ms KK was the nail. I wanted to see the house though so I'm back watching it with captions in silence 😂😂😂
i normally love these tours. i mean really love them. this one came off very pretentious. having no humans in the frame made it very cold. i get the taste level is off the charts. the reverential voice overs didnt help. although mind boggling in execution and money, sorry to say....soulless.
that's a hard NO on the taste level.
I was referring to being hit over the head with the provenance and stories of each significant piece in this overly curated event space.
My husband and I felt the same way. It was a "flex" as someone said above, but to me, the words that came to mind were "pretentious," and almost reeks of "insecurity." I felt almost like this fella was going so hard to show all those 8th-grade bullies how important he is now!@@justinbrovenick3023
That "Gwyneth" painting is NOT on an aubergine coloured wall, THAT is _very clearly_ burnt umber! 😂😂😂😂
😂
@@jackiec859 It was thee _most_ pretentious F'ing thing that I have EVER typed! 🤣🤣
@@Digitalhunny Impressive!😅
It is highly unlikely that the monitor you saw this video on accurately represents color. Making judgements of that nature based on a TH-cam video are akin to evaluating a Beethoven symphony by listening to a 64 mbps MP3 file.
@@avsystem3142 NO! I _need_ to know that I've posted ONE accurately pompous comment on this website _just_ ONCE dang it! *"IT'S BURNT UMBER!"* 🤣🤣🤣
the structure itself is beautiful, but there really is no cohesion to the interior design. i understand the "conflict ethos" that he is going for, but i think there needs to be some sort of rhythm and flow to the space. otherwise it just looks like a showroom of random, super-expensive art and furniture scattered about with no rhyme or reason.
This isn’t the art piece they thought it was…
The design of the landscaping is beautiful
This is camp. Thank you, Ryan.
Remove the art pieces and you’ve got a middle school building with a $50k monthly landscaping bill.
😂😂😂I can't unsee that!!
Yeah but this was built in 1955, which is crazy futuristic
I love the butthurt comments 😂
Kitten has claws.
💯
A beautiful office building with no personality except some small porcelain meat figurines? Would have been better if Tom Hollander narrated this film in his Truman Capote voice.😂😂😂
Pretentious is not why I watch this channel, I watch it for down to earth homes where the owners talk about their space and what they love about it... I think this was in bad taste. I just wanted to say FU to the whole thing, get me out of here.
This looks like a politicians office 😂
A lesson on how to make a pretentious but fun series even more pretentious and bland.
I got the giggles when Kim K started narrating… this is CAMP!
The narration is unexpected but kind of fun.
pretentious and gross!
I really like the narration. Soothing ASMR vibes.
Except for Kardashian’s vocal creak 🤣
I guess AD is running out of houses to show😢
Pretentious , but beautiful.
This is really immature
Too masculine, harsh, cold. It's preservation but nothing else. Also - I thought the world had finally tired of prison gray?
No, too dark and depressing. Mid century should be full of light, uplifting and optimistic
The comment section mirrors the sentiment of conflict which is the basis of his homes perspective. The house and the viewers are entangled in this poetic thing called life.
😂
So, basically the interior design is what all high end interior designers do.. they mix time periods with the furniture, lighting and objects.. and add contemporary art. lol
❤🙌❤️
Literally looks like a California law firm
Tell me you’re pretentious af without telling me you’re pretentious af….
The Best thing Ryan Murphy ever done next to running w/ scissors, better than all his FX shows! Great taste, campy narration lol, everything was chef kiss! 😄
I thought of lisping queens doing the narration, not movie stars. Maybe the cast of Drag Race would’ve made it truly postmodern and not so LA.
Plus.. it’s a torso, not a bust, duh.
The throaty. actresses sound like they have a hangover who are recording the narration you don't get a feel of the house what a waste of video with all the close-ups
I could listen to Chloë Savigny read the phone book 🤤💕💕💕
What was the point of having all the different people talking about it, did they think we would be impressed?
I was just transported. Thank you. Great video
The brown suede Tobia Scarpa couch set at 6:36 and the 1974 Nakashima desk at 9:19 were monumental!! Amazing vintage pieces
Though the opening credits were a surprise to me I wasn’t expecting the narration.
Kim Kardashian's vocal fry is awful.
Chic and elegant in a very upper crust California way, kind of updated Billy Haines? I get it, but it's not me. I agree that "discord" can be useful. but it's just not me. To each his own. Fun to look at and analyse.🙂🙂
Ryan Murphy has some serious money. All in i think that's about $100 million. 🤒
This is pretentious af there I said it
This is very contrived and dumb
As idiotic, empty and pretentious as a Jeff Koons piece. il en faut pour tous les goûts, I suppose.
Interesting imagery. Hideous and overwrought narration.
I see a lot of people don't like change. This was soothing and the house is beautifully done.
Excuse me while I google "who is Ryan Murphy"
Why the actress VO. So creepy. “Do it or you get fired” vibe.
Happy to see that this masterpiece of a house is being conserved and loved, rather than getting demolished. On top of that it is being filled with story telling pieces rather than bland flatbox furniture. Remember it is always easier to criticise than to create. ❤
I think this place is spectacular! But I don’t think I could live there…
Not my neo-contemporary style.
Would have Loved to see the Tom Ford Version!
This reeks of I have way too much money than I know what to do with
