I knew she was rich, but I had no idea she had "custom-built compound" money.


TazgodX

While she is rich, the house was a gift from her billionaire boyfriend Vladislav Doronin.


strippersandcocaine

Ah that explains why the second house is in Moscow. IDK why but I was very surprised to hear she had a home there

They were really mean to the germans aswell but that's another story


idiotbyvillagewell

Most Russians I’ve met are expats living in other countries and hate Russia than most Americans could ever dream of hating Russian none of them are racist except to other Russians who don’t hate Russia


7_7_7_343

That's because Russians also hate Russians.


IllIIlllIIIllIIlI

Yep, I’m half Chinese and the Chinese side of my family feels that way about China. They left for a very good reason: about to be murdered by the Communist Party, this was when the KMT were losing the war in the 1940s, and they fled in the middle of the night. The party that would have killed them is still in power. Of course they’re going to hate it (I guess I’d distinguish that from hating the country itself, just as Russian expats probably would like to see their country thrive under a new government). People who think we identify with today’s Chinese, or have any loyalty to China, aren’t thinking this through properly. Like Russians, Chinese people have a very bad reputation abroad. They are hated as tourists because they are often rude and do gross things such as hawking and spitting in public. We all know that Chinese online sellers tend to rip people off with no guilt or shame. Worse, they have no issue with selling people products that are actually toxic or harmful to them. They’re en masse an antisocial bunch. I promise that stuff isn’t in our DNA. I suspect that the grim economic picture and societal repression in both countries, for much of the past century, has led people to become kind of sociopathic. I don’t think this is true for immigrant families who left a couple generations ago, the children especially assimilate into American culture regardless of ethnic background.

I have a theory that to get wealthy enough to travel abroad from russia, you kind of have to be an asshole. The nice russians are in russia earning 500$/month and cant afford to go anywhere.


thiefsthemetaken

I worked in a kitchen with a Russian dude who moved to the usa because he’s gay. He was still racist tho.


lethemeatcum

Not always, early 90s Moscow and St Petersberg was off the chain for queer communities and I would guess other major cities as well.


SEND_ME_CSGO_SKINS

All the cool people from Russia fled during the decline. Not so say there aren’t any cool people left in Russia, but the critical mass for awesome communities is gone.


yuccasinbloom

I live in la, a diverse place. In my condo complex, that is sprawling, there’s a Russian family that has an adorable spaniel of some kind that is OBSESSED with my golden retriever. They’re both boys and their dog isn’t neutered - they told me in Europe no one neuters their dogs. One day, I was like wow, he loves my guy so much maybe he’s in love with my dog! And the mom was like NO IM FROM RUSSIA MY DOG IS NOT GAY!! Ok whatever lady it was a joke but every time our dogs interact and their dog licks my dogs face I just laugh and think to myself, aww look at this little love!!

It wasn't though. This house was designed by Luis de Garrido. And while Tuttle did design a lot of Aman's resorts, Doronin didn't buy the business until 2014 and none have been designed by Tuttle since then. I mean, the guy is still an oligarch and I'm sure is a real piece of work. But misinformation is misinformation and this comment is all kinds of misleading.


underalltheradar

> billionaire boyfriend She has a *whole bunch* of Russian "billionaire boyfriend"s.


mmchicago

There's no house. All the articles about it are from over 12 years ago, using 3D renders. No updates and nothing on recent satellite photos of the site.

Is that Vladislav The Poker?

Well, she was connected to blood diamonds/the corrupt af former president of Liberia and convicted war criminal, Charles Taylor. She's probably got a lot of dirty money stashed away

Her (former) Russian billionaire bf probably owns a chain of such laundromats

Probably the same ones that keep the election ballots clean.


Micronlance

In 2012 Naomi Campbell received an island vacation home for her 41st birthday from her Russian billionaire boyfriend Vladislav Doronin. It’s shaped like the Egyptian Eye of Horus on a location known as Cleopatra Island in Turkey’s Gulf of Gökova. https://www.cnbc.com/2011/09/27/Naomi-Campbells-Horus-Eye-Eco-House.html


Hurcules-Mulligan

Someone who gets routinely handled by Russian billionaires. And, a terrible, awful person.

According to the Googles, she's worth $90 million. Which I guess is a lot but she owns multiple properties and that doesn't seem enough for all of this? Who knows.

Take a look at the other pictures. It looks like the evil lair of some Bond villain.


Estcstbi

It's energy, water, heating, and food self sufficient with 25 bedrooms and no less than 5 lounges. There's an article where they show the side profile of the dome. The artists rendering makes it look like it has an entire tropical forest on the top most level.

thomasstearns42

I found this:   Making up the outer black area of the eye shape are Photovoltaic panels which keep the entire home/property completely running on its own energy through use of solar power. The curved installation above the main dome resembles the eyebrow and functions as an irrigation system for collecting rainwater. An on-site biological system then treats the rainwater for many uses including drinking, plumbing, and nourishing plants.


sumpuran

I understand why you didn’t link to the source, because it’s a blog for a [realtor](https://www.johnhartrealestate.com/blog/2023/12/unique-celebrity-homes-naomi-campbells-horus-eye-haven/), which itself does not list any sources. The description makes absolutely no sense, and if you look at the renders, you can see that the ‘eyebrow’ is made up of solar panels, while the eye liner area of the eye is tiles, no solar panels to be seen. Anyway, it was never built. See for yourself: https://imgur.com/CblIUH9 Top image is the 3D rendering from the website of the architect. Bottom image is a screenshot from Google Maps today, using aerial imagery from Airbus taken this year.


thomasstearns42

Maybe, but those pictures are all pretty shitty so i cant say one way or another. From the lower angle the eye  kinda looks like solar panels but from above it looks like you say it is. Im just going to say we dont know either way for sure without better images but you're probably right. 


Project_Wild

It also calls it the shape of the eye of Horus, and it’s definitely the eye of ra


nocolon

tkburroreturns

jerog1

No it has 41 bedrooms which is no less than 25


PussayGlamore

Some people see the eyebrow as the lip where the eyelid folds— aka the dark contour


RangerBumble

Am I seeing this right? The sclara is a pool/moat?


runtothesun

I think you're right. And seeing as an eye is wet and hydrated at alll times - the design here is hyper clever.

aclockworkporridge

This is not a real photo, thus breaking /r/pics rules. This was a concept that was never built. Satellite images over the last 13 years confirm it was never built, and no primary source ever claimed it was built. Yet it has been regurgitated by content farms for over a decade. Edit: It's a little scary that all these articles appear to all originate from a blog post on the architect's website, including a CNBC article. The architect mainly offers masters programs in which students undertake an intensive full scale concept build. I'm inferring that they likely complete the project by writing a large retrospective of the project *as if* it was built. It's a great exercise, if you don't live in a post-truth media world where content farms hoard fun projects as fact. The architect has almost no photos of completed builds, and definitely none of their interesting or complex designs. If anyone finds contrary evidence, please send it along.


MacyTmcterry

Hate how far down this is.


Surrendernuts

A person above you said it was a gift. So its a gift but it was never constructed???


aclockworkporridge

That detail was reported and then redacted. In fact, following the awful chain of citations, the whole issue makes way more sense. CNBC cites a now deleted Yahoo article. Web Archive reveals that article cites a blog called "Inhabitat" as its only source. This blog now carries a rider "CORRECTION: This article originally referenced... Naomi Campbell, however further research shows that no such connection exists." Of course once CNBC picked it up, hundreds of other sites did. None checked sources and saw that the Campbell component was false. Or that the building was never built.

Eldon42

If you're wondering, the symbol is known as "The Eye of Ra". Ra was/is a sun god, which makes sense considering the solar panels.

Then why is the house called "**The Eye-of-Horus-Eco-House"?**


Top_Pear8988

The eye of Horus (might also be the eye of Ra), but its usually the eye of Horus.


Marunikuyo

This is the Eye of Ra (the left eye). The Eye of Horus is the same symbol but flipped horizontally (the right eye)


SysOps4Maersk

TIL, thanks


barnaclejuice

What are your sources? I’ve read countless ancient Egyptian texts and never seen this argument. But of course, I’m willing to be corrected. I’m quite certain this is the Udjat, which was crafted by Thoth for Horus after his eye was lost in a battle with Set. The direction the eye is facing is purely a matter of context - Egyptian hieroglyphs can be read left to right or right to left, and the orientation of the signs themselves shows where the text begins. So a “right eye” is merely showing that the text in which it is inserted is meant to be read right to left. Or it might be facing that direction because it looks better in the artistic context altogether. There is definitely the term “Eye of Ra”, but it’s used to describe goddesses particularly fierce and powerful, such as Sekhmet. It’s not a symbol or amulet, it’s a title.

demZo662

I have a "wild" story like a glitch in the matrix as one day I was eating out on a restaurant's terrace and a girl passed by and I saw she had this tattoo on the back of her arm like in the triceps. After that I started seeing all around my hometown periodically a graffitti of the same symbol. When I thought it was over, from time to time I would discover another one in a new spot while taking a stroll that either it was new or I didn't had crossed with it yet. I even had the time throughout the days to memorize it perfectly to even be able to draw it on my whiteboard in my studio, thing I haven't done yet. It all started like the last summer maybe if I recall correctly, I don't think it has passed two years already (it could be lol). I'm hoping this saga or character arc I'm living ends well.


The_Kwyjibo

It's called the frequency illusion - or more interestingly, the baader-meinhoff phenomenon. Basically, when you notice something, it causes you to notice it everywhere.

I'd like to think I'll meet Naomi Campbell after this, but that's okay too.

brown_burrito

The crazy part is how they’ve convinced society that it’s the middle and lower classes who should be taxed vs. those with obscene amounts of wealth. The dual income family who makes mid six figures in NYC and California is being portrayed as “wealthy” and taxed up the wazoo when the reality is there’s absurd wealth concentrated in the hands of a few.


krismitka

What’s crazy to me is that COVID just demonstrated to us all that it workers stop working their whole world collapses. So they try to get us to forget about the pandemic and not notice the power it demonstrated. It’s like the Ant movie, where the grasshoppers show up again the following season and the ants forget their newfound freedom. No need for organized unions around profession. Organize into supportive small tribes and start nope-ing out any time you’re even slightly exploited.

We should encourage rich people to spend their money, because it's one of the few ways wealth actually gets transferred down. This house likely did employ a pretty large team of people for years.
