Inside David Harbour & Lily Allen's Brooklyn Townhouse | Open Door | Architectural Digest
Video Overview & Insights
Today Architectural Digest is welcomed to Brooklyn, New York by David Harbour and Lily Allen for a tour of their exuberant family townhouse. Working hand in hand with AD100 designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff of MADE, Lily and David have created an exciting and singular home within their stately late-19th-century brownstone in Carroll Gardens. “Lily is someone who lives with color in a deeper way than most. Her taste is bold, silly, fun, eccentric—it’s exciting,” says the _Stranger Things_ actor and star of the recent blood-splattered Christmas spectacular _Violent Night._ “I’ve always been interested in interiors, and I’ve always done my own homes. But this was a big undertaking, and I needed help.” says Allen. “Together, Billy and I tried to reach for something weird and wonderful.”

David Harbour sure likes to joke about seeing other women. Wonder how that went?

Narcissist. I've met many enough to recognize the body language (and paid the price... they destroy you) He is performing constantly and controlling the situation. The way you can see how he loves to listen to himself talk and seeing him center himself as the main character.

He’s so creepy. No idea what she saw in that guy.
@gkhumphriesAged well
@LowrosI like how lily's rooms designs are form and function, David's look like a poor rendition of my grandma's 1975 bungalow.
@KORII-LKYou know what’s even more embarrassing David to have an entire album written about you like Taylor Swift
@shakespeare1982Are you a couple or not ? Cause your body language says no!
@morbenezra274Interesting.
@tawermeister99He's EXHAUSTING.
@joannemcnamara4272Perfect house to house more illegals
@aurorerichOther than the kitchen every other spot in the house looks like the set of “the shining”
@freakmeoutwilluThe extreme wealth of having hand painted wallpaper and the decadence of each room. I do love the green sofa, it’s luxurious. The swan taps are lovely. I do love this, even though it’s no more.
@MagicSchoolbus1@8:10 = contempt. Record videos with people close to you and watch carefully to reveal beneath the mask
@Meltyfairybilly cotton really got sorted
@electrahexxOh wow, he's awful.
@carolionroarHe reads as "I've never had stability in my childhood/early adulthood, and, now that I have some fame and money, I'm going to be as obnoxious and egotistical as possible."
@QueenSchatzActually she didn‘t like him because they were too different and he IS actually a very insecure guy
@tinyproject6388What's with Harbour's reaction to the cameraman? Awkward. Did he sleep with her/him too? Lily seems embarrassed, shy, even uncomfortable. Well, easy to say now that we know what we know, but there was definitely a strange energy between those two in that interview.
@kierah2961Watching this video is like returning to the scene of a crime
@williamthames52This didn’t age well…. 😮😮
@rae9334This aged incredibly well.
@SmartVandelayI was expecting someone to mention the way he barely remembered her name toward the beginning 😭
@ellamayoelloelleoh he hatedd her
@NightshadeMiaOh David... You ARE a CHUMP
@LadyGenerationX“Designed for three women in my life” sent me into orbit
@laurajacqueline437Kitty castle kitty castle
@rebeccaday2107truly the lest of his crimes but carpeting the bathroom is VILE
