Momager Kris Jenner Gives AD a Tour of Her Never-Before-Seen Hidden Hills Home (1229 hits)
Although Kris Jenner has built an empire living in the spotlight, her personal refuge was designed specifically for peaceful repose, not television drama

Don’t believe everything you see on television. Like the time Kris Jenner hilariously referred to Le Corbusier as Le Courvoisier on an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the Zeitgeist-defining television show she has produced since 2007. It turns out that the queen of momagers (a term Jenner herself trademarked) knows perfectly well who Corbu is. A chair he designed—in partnership with Pierre Jeanneret, for the High Court in Chandigarh, India—sits front and center in her plush, sprawling closet, the perfect perch for selecting the right handbag and shoes from the kaleidoscopic assortment on display.
The iconic chair isn’t the only surprise Jenner’s millions of fans and followers will discover in her chic new home in the Los Angeles suburb of Hidden Hills. A collaboration between AD100 designer Waldo Fernandez and the mother-and-son team of Kathleen and Tommy Clements, the serene, understated house is awash in classic pieces by titans of 20th-century decorative arts on the order of Charlotte Perriand, Jean Prouvé, Jean Royère, Pierre Guariche, Aldo Tura, Paolo Buffa, and Oscar Niemeyer. It’s a dramatic departure from the dynamo’s previous home, which she still uses to tape KUWTK.
