Travis Barker has entered a new era. In addition to marrying Kourtney Kardashian, the drummer recently remodeled the Calabasas, CA, home he’s lived in for more than 15 years, trading his prior flashy aesthetic for a more zen layout. The love nest, which Barker showed off in Architectural Digest, now boasts minimal decor, neutral colours, several fireplaces, and framed family photos.
“I’ve had homes with lots of flashy cars, murals, and bikes hanging from the ceiling. But with three children of my own, plus Kourtney’s kids, this place felt right for this moment in my life,” Barker told the magazine. “I wanted a house where I can rest and enjoy my family, a place where we can create memories.”
Barker’s residential refresh came courtesy of Los Angeles interior designer Waldo Fernandez, who was referred by Barker’s mother-in-law, Kris Jenner, of course. “Travis wasn’t looking for a major statement or any kind of caricatured rock-star style,” Fernandez said. “He wanted a home that would allow him to think and be at peace with himself.”
Despite its tranquil features, Barker’s home certainly still has elements reflective of his career and rockstar persona, including a concrete ping-pong table, a vibrating bed, pop-culture artwork, and an at-home studio attended by various famous faces. See photos of the home ahead, and watch the complete tour featuring an appearance by Kardashian.

Barker’s bark candlestick holders were an old gift from Kardashian. “Way before we were together we would spoil each other and buy each other Christmas presents and birthday presents,” he said. “They’ve stayed in this room.”

Travis Barker's Kitchen
In the remodel, Barker’s kitchen was opened up with the removal of a wall. Everything in the kitchen is also made to look like a cabinet, including the fridge and freezer. “I love that it’s kind of industrial,” Barker said.

Travis Barker's TV Room
The cozy television room was the setting for Barker and Kardashian’s last New Year’s Eve, during which they played games and worked on a puzzle. Barker said he also often writes songs on the couch shown here. The room used to have a vaulted ceiling, but Barker had it flatted out to create a cleaner line.

Travis Barker's Entertainment Room
The centerpiece of Barker’s entertainment room is a cement ping-pong table. “It’s really heavy. A team of eight people came in and installed it,” he said. “There was a point during quarantine where we would just play every day and have the coolest ping-pong tournaments.”

Barker has a collection of BMX bikes, and while the majority are at his studio, on display here are two rare models by Dior. The white one was a regift from Kendall Jenner, while the gold bike was one that LeBron James apparently ordered – but never picked up – at the store.

The entertainment room’s bar is stocked with red Baccarat champagne flutes embossed with Barker and Kardashian’s names and the date of their engagement – which also fell on the year-anniversary of the day they first became romantic. Underneath is #forever.
