Inside Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's Hidden Los Angeles Home | Open Door | Architectural Digest

Hello, I'm Glidecaster Waldow. Welcome to my house. Happens when I saw this house for the first time. This room was full of photos, obviously, we took them down, painted it, uh, and we also added this lamp that I love. This is the main venue I've been working on in Los Angeles for 15 or 20 years and now seemed like a good time to find a place when I found this place. You know, obviously, I wasn't sure my wife would like it. but I fell in love with it so I thought I'd give it a try and then hopefully she'll agree.

She is a great friend who is also good friends with my wife Lonnie Castle and her friend Brigitte, her interior designer, they said. Why don't we help you? We're going to go get some furniture and then it'll be ready when Gaga comes over and they did an amazing job and I'm still married so it turned out well. It should be simple, comfortable and take advantage of all the windows and all the greenery and have that be the main attraction, by the way, this is a Brienne of Tarth from Game of Thrones, it was made by a fan, so I'm supposed to give her this to Gwendolyn Christie anyway this chair is very comfortable it looks a little weird but it's amazing by the way this is kind of fun.

I was making a documentary all over Greenland. My wife is from Greenland. She made this documentary and at the same time. At that time I was in a town called Tesla which is on the east coast of Greenland and the hunters there, as a second source of income, make crafts and this guy made this piece that I bought and I really liked it. The fireplace from before had this one. built, it was different colors, so they put this really simple black and painted it all white and this is a funny story, uh, Victor Tilfine, the artist from Lima made these that are the correct signs, so I thought this is fantastic.

Get three. I'll get the signs from my wife and I and then our kids. Our children have the same sign. I thought they had this sign. I made a mistake. I don't even know my kids' zodiac signs, but you know you can. I don't know everything, but I understood the other two well, my wife's and mine, I'm a Leo and I think they are beautiful. I talked about this guy I met in Lima in Peru, Victor del Fin and I saw this. what it did for me was like a bird of creativity, you know, it's basically a brain exploding with paintbrushes, but I like it by the way, this is a very nice table, a desk, I usually have my computer and stuff here, but I guess it looks better when it's clean so it's beautiful this of course is one of my favorite photos this is my wife uh singing this is some piquet and lonnie it's a metal balloon it's one of those things that my wife and I said it's probably not like this to survive after the

architectural

brief has existed, you have to ask them about this, by the way, I know it's art, but no, I don't understand it, so this is the master bedroom and it's a pretty simple room nice space good energy this bed is made by key it is very comfortable in fact we have these lamps in Denmark and they are also very good this is my family I am from Greenland my wife and I sailed my mother and my safina philippa and nuga in greenland ie , nugaga, filipina and safina, we spend quite a bit of time here on the small balcony, it's very nice in the morning and then the view, of course, we have this fantastic view of La, of course, we have a fern, now you need a fern on your room.

Ferns are known to create a lot of sexual energy in the room and it is true that this part of the house is the place for children, so we have Safina here and Philip there and and their rooms are very basic, they have a bed and then now You can start adding whatever you need and this is your bathroom, the very exquisite bathtub was everything was here, everything was here, but there was like very colorful wallpaper everywhere. the bathroom and also in the hallway, but we thought there was too much, there are too many things happening and also what we like about this house is that we have windows everywhere and we have the green outside, so that is quite green, this is the kitchen, of course, and we did quite a bit here, it was brown, it had very brown tiles, there were these big cabinets here, they tore them down, got rid of all the tiles, painted the cabinets and at

home

it's more like an

open

kitchen.

Plan something where you would have the dining room and kitchen in one. It's not like a big trip to get from here to the dining room. I can show you that it's like, let's count it, yeah, it's four steps. steps and then we can handle that, so this room, when I first saw it, was just a living room. I wanted this to be ours, you know, a dining room, office space and this is really where we spend most of our time. The table was actually designed by a beginner and was cast by a local carpenter here in Los Angeles.

This is actually great. I was in Peru and this is the cut of the plant. What is that plant called when you want to continue? a trip and expand your mind, yes, ayahuasca, what I like most is this person that I, uh, no, Gaga gave me for my birthday, which is a photograph, a print by a Danish photographer named Henrik Saxbron, it's from Greenland, it's this huge iceberg, there's something about it and then you look at both sides and you have this, the green lushness of California and it's a nice contrast, so I guess our aesthetic tastes are kind of what I would say, it's like If we would like it to be simple, we come. from greenland scandinavian and we wanted to bring that here but also of course you know we're in california and i only had like half a thing, i mean there has to be a pool, i have a place in california with no pool, that's ridiculous. and since I have a lot of friends here who are from here I go why don't you never you're going to spend time in that pool well, they're wrong, let's go out to the pool so this is uh I mean This is, I have a very exotic pool for a Scandinavian.

These chairs were left by the previous owner and they are very comfortable, so thank you, Mr. previous owner, except for the chairs, all the furniture is from Denmark, it is a brand. It's called skyrack and every morning we have berries, it's not because you're filming here that we just have these bowls of berries here or if you're not okay, then this, this is the middle of the garden, this was the only thing that My daughters told me that We had to get a sun lounger so they could sunbathe, I guess, and it's also very, very pretty.

Another thing that's very different from my house in Denmark is, of course, that it's green here all year round, which is crazy for us and really cool, is this, I don't know, is it a lime or is it some kind of tree? of citrus, come on, okay, so here we are at the top of the garden, which is the place I call the top of the garden, but I love it because you know you can, you can actually look out over Los Angeles and You know that on a clear day you can see the ocean in the distance.

I mean, I love this place and then you know they come. here at night and you have this little campfire and there's a fire going and then you can sit in your hammock and then this beautiful bench, I'm sure they look the same all over the world, but it reminds me of Denmark, it's For me, a very very Danish bench, I guess every place in the world has a word for a good feeling, that feels good, a nice atmosphere, but the hook is something we like and this is really good, that's all, thanks for come by, greetings. to lonnie to start everyone who made the house possible and have a good time hello guys, how are you?

Hello, we are the downies, I'm ricky martin, welcome to my house. I'll take you on a little tour, please come inside. They both walked in and felt like this is what we found, would you like it? A better framework, thanks. Another favorite part of the apartment is the terrace overlooking the park. I could jump in there, but I don't feel like being cold. You will never be cold in my pool. Does he look like this all the time? Yes, there is usually no one messy here. Oh wait, I thought it's a different room, nevermind.
