Kanye West's Unfinished Malibu Beach House
Kanye West purchased this Malibu beach house in 2021 and began gutting the property for renovation, but is now parting ways with the unfinished project. Built in 2013 and designed by Tadao Ando, the four-story structure features the architect's signature "smooth-as-silk" concrete, using nearly 1,200 tons of the material. It also features 200 tons of steel reinforcement and 12 pylons driven 60 feet into the sand. Views of the Pacific are available in every room of the 4,000-square-foot home, while exterior decks and terraces add 1,500 square feet of outdoor living space. Unfortunately, all the interior finishes were removed during the restoration process, including windows and doors, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC units, and will need to be replaced.
