Inside Robert Downey Jr.’s Windmill Home in the Hamptons | Open Door | Architectural Digest

- In this episode of Open Door, Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man, Avengers) and wife Susan Downey turned a converted windmill into a stylish and charming Hamptons home. In this funny, full-access house tour, the Downeys show off their favorite art, let you into their closets and explain why their cats have full run of the place.
"We wanted something we haven’t seen a million times,” the Iron Man star says, describing the property itself as well as the decorative ministrations of AD100 designer Joe Nahem and the team at New York City-based Fox-Nahem Associates.
The Downeys originally met Nahem two summers ago, when they rented the heavenly Amagansett country house the designer shares with his partner, Jeffrey Fields.
The Downeys said goodbye to Nahem and Fields that summer with a request that the designers alert them to any particularly enticing properties coming onto the market in the Hamptons. Several months later, Nahem found a place that more than fit the bill: a late-19th century windmill folly, originally constructed as a playhouse, that had been transformed into a full-fledged residence by way of structural additions grafted onto the building in the decades following its construction. Among the many attributes of the estate were proximity to the town of East Hampton coupled with the privacy of a secluded location, enchanting gardens conjured by landscape designer Joseph Tyree for the home’s previous owners, and those sublime trees that dot the lawns like masterpieces of sculpture.
Nahem didn’t have much time to revel in the triumph of his matchmaking. As soon as his clients acquired the property, they gave their designer a mere six weeks to transform the home into a Downey-rific sanctuary keyed to the couple’s adventurous aesthetic tastes and the comfort of their children, five-year-old son Exton and three-year-old daughter Avri. (The actor has another son, 24-year-old Indio, with his ex-wife, Deborah Falconer.)
Happily, once the holiday season was over, Nahem and his team were able to return to the home and begin the renovation in earnest. One of the biggest changes was the reconfiguration of the living room that lies just beyond the octagonal entry foyer at the base of the windmill. To give the transitional area a greater sense of place, the designer sunk the living room several feet and anchored it with a massive wraparound fireplace wall by ceramic artist Peter Lane.
Another major component of the renovation involved rethinking the pool area to suit the Downeys’ vision of easy, breezy outdoor leisure. Rather than making the guesthouse do double duty as a swimming cabana, as it had in the previous scheme, Nahem designed a freestanding poolside pavilion, in collaboration with Alveary Architecture, replete with a dining setup centered on a mosaic-topped table by Kelly Behun Studio, an outdoor living room and bar, and a television almost as large as the screens at the local multiplex.
As for the interiors of the house itself, the mix represents an amiable consensus among the Downeys and their designer: pedigreed pieces and unpretentious off-the-rack staples, poppy colors and soothing neutrals, eccentric accents and discreet luxuries. It’s an idiosyncratic assemblage that speaks equally to the actor’s puckish spirit, his wife’s concerns for efficiency and ease, and Nahem’s finesse in crafting eminently livable homes with a touch of otherworldly magic.

After this I’m convinced he has never seen a single script from Marvel, not one. The man just gets on set and does his thing.
Aren't you happy that this man has made it to a happy and trouble free life ? Man its so nice to see this man jolly and happy.
Yes!👍🏽

its so inspiring really !
Yes, all thanks to Mel Gibson
It’s not even over the top luxurious. He knows what is essential. THE DAMN CATS
Not over the top? House is like 20 metres and another level away from being a mansion
Dudes living in a giant windmill..
He lives in a windmill. Not over the top. XD but the cats are important
Well, we haven't seen his Malibu house.

The first celebrity house on AD that looks messy yet cosy & beautiful 😍. Such a humbled couple.
This was the most chaotic AD home tour and I’m here for it!😂👏🏼
Tony Stark is showing is his luxurious house, while acting as RDJ
HAHAHA AGREE
Yes, but maybe more isolated.
So you could say that he's a dude…playing a dude?
Zeo , but the real question is....
Is he a dude playing a dude... disguised as another dude?
Haven’t heard this one before. Clever joke mate!
My man gets paid for being himself 😂 I love 3000!
true🤣❤
Hahahaahaha....I wish I can have a job like that
Hitlers cat
PERIODT
We did it mr stark
His house is him ..
A lot of character, fun and unique.
Hello greetings how are you doing is me keanu reeves can I share something with you...
Finally a house where you actually see that people are really living in, and doesn't feel like a museum. :)
This dude was born to play tony stark
Watermelon Head Tony Stark was created to be played by Robert
Robert is literally Tony , Tony is literally Robert
You took the words from my mouth
He's not a dude, you're a dude .
This is a man, a handsome muscular man 😂

He picked the perfect partner, they have great chemistry and look good together, great house, lots of Aries energy.
They are not just husband and wife, they are pals.
@0:10, he says, "that would be security breach" instead of "that would be a security breach". I see every Aries making grammatical mistakes and being lousy in general. RDJ's non-marvel movies aren't that great. I am an Aries too. Please don't have Aries children.
This was a nice comment until you ruined it with the horoscope BS at the end...
This has to be so nicely therapeutic being away from the grandiose and unbelievable life Robert lives. Less is more. Wow, nice place to call home. Robert keeping it real. I'm liking him even more as if that was even possible.
So he wasn’t even acting in the MCU, he really just is Tony Stark in real life.
The fact that RDJ is a cat person has just cemented him on my list of favourite people.
Tony gets paid to play Robert Downey Jr
Yes! That is why, as a 45 year Marvel Comic collector, I was so excited when they cast him. Nailed it!
He is just using his normal behaviour in the Movies
I knew it all long!
*I believe he has a secret basement filled with iron man suits*
conspiracy 101
Go search in his Malibu mansion...
@@VALAR_Morgulis. y'mean the building that got blown up years ago.... yea... sure
@@person43 I think stark rebuilt that for sure by now
Just for keeping iron man suits...😅😅
No silly, it's the bodies.
This is the best episode of AD because they showed a glimpse of an actually lived in room that hadn’t been professionally cleaned & decorated before the cameras arrived.
So homely. Robert has a great sense of humour with good looks. Hard to believe the Iron man living a simple life.
I can't tell if he's being himself, or he's stuck as Tony Stark
Its him before auditions
Kenneth Bowers Tony Stark is RDJ
bro he is literally tony stark now
I don’t really think there is a difference anymore 😂
I mean that in a good way.
he adapted himself into tony stark, idiots
RDJ is iron man even when he is not in character 😂
We love you 3000
We do love you 3000, Sir
Bagas Prakoso no iron man will ever be better than RDJ!
Im crying
*sniff* ok that was unnecessary
We love you 3000 indeed!😍😍😍😍
And yeah, he's just so in his character.. Or he's just this way in real...😃😃😍😍😍
As a cat owner, I have no idea how he’s managed to keep such nice furniture with two cats roaming around.
And I don't think I would put the cat box in a closet where my clothes are hanging....
@@sandraleigh4023 dude must have the cleanest cats on earth
😅😅😅😅 I have 2 cats got another new couch 1 week in they ripped 3 cushions open al ripped holes everywhere else I give up 😅
@@user-xn8pd2re3n I feel your pain
Dont let the cats out!
Love how they’re not shy about their house being lived in. Super Stars with nice things but it gets used things.
That moment when u realize that he didn't act Tony Stark...that's just how he is.
lool
Which is why he was just perfect for the role
YES.
Tony Stark is an ENTP NETI and ROBERT is an ENTP NEFE quite some difference in my opinion.... ( I'm not joking LMFAO)
Was going to say the same thing!
When people say “I wish I had a cool dad” they mean they want Robert Downey Jr.
Hell yeah!
but if you don’t go to sleep he’ll sell all of your toys
Did you mean tony stark?
Or jackie chan
Olivia Martin me
Robert whispering "dear boys" at 4:18 to his cats is everything

You guys are so laid back, your home is lovely, thanks for the tour

This man basically launched the whole marvel franchise with one hit movie
KMR_136 and got a super sweet contract deal from it
Yup. The Godfather of the mcu
thanks to kevin feige and jov fraveu too they improvise most of the script in such limited time which is amazing
And yet,not a mansion,just a quaint little windmill house,messy rooms, cats and all,down to earth and still acts exactly like Tony stark lol you can't not love him.
are you serious? wtf? go do a search. you seriously think he only owns one house? a quick search in the first page of google tells you he at least own 9 because that is how many results google will show you in one page.
Truly, Mr. Downey is a national treasure. I totally love this guy. And his lovely spouse seems to be a sweet person as well. Love it!
Love the confident energy of this couple, giving people unfiltered, unstaged, the most authentic house tour ever
so he got paid for being himself in the avengers
and iron man films lol
You just found out?
and the sherlock holmes films
Yes.
Same thought hhahaha
He hasn't shown us the basement yet, it has to be where all of the suits are.
What suit?
Can you shut up? Iron Man suits. What kind of suits were you thinking?
😁👍🏻😂😂😂
Or maybe swimming suit
Can you shut up? This is RDJ we’re talking about. When you put his name and the word suit in the same sentence it leads to Iron Man. I think.
Four years later, i am still saying to my mind that i thank you susan for changing rdj’s life, EVER!!
My God. This man really has turned his life around. It's impressive and touching.
I think Robert purposely made almost every piece of furniture comfortable so he can sleep anywhere
A true futurist is you ask me
I don’t know how someone so rich and above me can feel so relatable
Lol I think that is true 😂
They also have kids. You can't have furniture that isn't able to be sat on or is uncomfortable. They'll just bother you more.

RDJ is literally one of the richest movie stars in the world and this is his house.... Simple and homely...
I love it...❤️
i will just pretend iron man retired and living like this.
adit same man. I’ll pretend he lives here and still lives at that wooden house by the lake.
yes man, why not hulk do the snaps on thanos earlier on his left hand.

That is what he did.

So Ironman lives in a windmill now and left Pepper for a cat lady. Strange..,but I will take this new timeline Cap created.

And acting. It's usually 12+ hour days so you learn to sleep wherever and whenever you can. Especially night shoots where it's sundown to sunrise.
They work hard. High energy needs a good night's sleep.
