Celebrity Real Estate - Michael Bay Edition

Michael Bay bought a home in 2009 for $10.9 million, which he promptly knocked down and rebuilt to his liking. After almost five years, the project is finished, and is featured in Architectural Digest. See the pictures at Curbed or at Architectural Digest.

    That is definitely a Michael Bey production. Takes a long time, is rather flashy and unoriginal, and pretends to be cool.

    I'm in love with Rebel and Bonecrusher. Mastiffs are gorgeous.

    Not a fan of this ultra modern space age shit.

    Sterile and cold. Do people really live in these homes? They have no sense of comfort or homeyness about them. Forget the fact that there aren't dog kibbles on the floor (or drool spots from those mastiffs), it doesn't look like the kind of place that you could kick your shoes off, curl up in a chair and eat a bowl of Spaghetti-Os.

    When the garage is cleaner than one's kitchen it is depressing.

      Good thing LA got that smog problem under control or that view wouldn't be quite so spectacular.

      @Tina Exactly. Those glass houses always give me the creeps.

    The houses of the bigwigs certainly explain why we have the current crop of celebs who are selfie obsessed. All style, no substance and about as comforting as the business side of a mortuary. Yuck.

    That house is absolutely horrible! It looks like a business bldg or something. I don't know what was there before (that he tore down) but good lord the sequel is a FLOP!!! Money doesn't buy you good taste does it?

    Now that me and Mr. Min Pin are trying to run a multi generational household (and one with handicapped people) I look at houses SO differently than I ever did before. With that kind of money I'd build a house geared more towards a communal eating space but more separate living spaces. Separate but together (and no damn stairs!).
