Released on 07/01/2020
What's up AD,
this is J. Balvin,
welcome to my house. Let's go.
[upbeat music]
[camera shuttering]
I ain't got nothing to hide.
The hallway is a whole Japanese vibe
with the natural light.
Really important.
[soft music]
This is my room.
Traveling around the world, you know,
when I went to Japan
I really connect with their energy
that I really love
and it's definitely what I'm doing in this house.
I call it a temple
because it's like a temple, definitely.
I have this place to rest, you know,
to feel calm and relax.
You can see the high ceilings.
Everything is wood around here.
These things on the floor
is because it was raining
but I used to have it outside
and drink some coffee and some tea
on the floor or to meditate.
But, there's one thing,
I don't sleep in this room.
I like to sleep around in different rooms.
Who said you have to sleep in the master room?
I don't like to get bored with my own places.
The closet.
[hip hop music]
It's one of my favorite places.
I like to shop a lot, definitely.
I came out with a deal with sinq dolementos
which are a team of super smart
and talented designers.
It's a cool closet, walk in closet.
You know you can see the whole vibe.
I forgot definitely, man.
And I can't tell you, my mom will, I'll be grounded.
Man, I love everything.
Like, everything, everything.
I love accessories and the hats,
glasses, sneakers, everything.
I love everything, I can't lie.
[funky music]
Alright, this is my master bathroom.
You can check the vibe.
Now everything's real simple, and I like to shower.
And the less the better, at least for me.
It has to be nature all around.
It's kind of like a rainy day,
but you see this green everywhere.
It's a Wabysaby house.
I'm involved of one-hundred, two-thousand percent involved,
In my places.
I'm not the type of client that is just like
I got the money and do this not every thing joy
because this is the place where basically
I'm living now, now that parenting started for
like 3 months now so I'm really happy that
I really create the place that I wanted to do
that is not a place to show off,
it's a place for my soul to rest.
I'm not here trying to flex on no one
I'm on another vibe this is just like to me
and me soul and my people to come and just be relaxed.
Okay, let's go and see another room.
As you can see the rooms here, this is slide door,
with a natural light really important
this are the doors they're like invisible doors
In our guest room.
So here is one of the room that I-
I slept here yesterday, last night.
Calming, relax.
This tree in this house
and floor with the people that work here
and you see this huge garden here too.
This not a lot of things this is just like wood and
basically tomateros.
This is our bathroom.
You know the idea is like feel that you like
in the hotel you have all the amenities you need.
If you walk here, this is the other guest room.
There's another bathroom,
another closet, but everything is really one level,
but definitely I love it.
the next phase of the house it has like three or four
yeah three floors
Japaneses vibes hundred percent.
My dog Enzo.
We wanted to put a statue here,
some thing happened with the sculpture,
and we were like,
lets bring the nature here and it's look so dope,
because you see the tree here
but if you see over there this another tree.
Positive energy.
The whole place is basically a piece of art so,
we done put art inside.
[Funky music]
This living room, I spend mostly all the time
in this house it's just like being here
being a lot of cool books,
kind of like a library design, architecture, of fashion,
we have a lot of those around here.
Oh and here you can find
for the sake
for friends and family man, I definitely don't drink.
And uh, there is no TV.
Why do a TV, you need when you have this view.
I basically be sitting down here and
just where I spend all the time when I'm here.
I draw here I have color books here,
and I have the whole view.
I don't have nothing,
nothing of my professional life in this house.
There's nothing that says J Balvin around here.
There's no a-
there's not a single city, there's not...
Everything I send it to my mom's.
You know here is jose.
There's nothing.
It's the kitchen right here.
Everything is like wood around here,
of course wood can match with everything.
As you can see the fridge.
It's here, you know,
just like to...
I just drink water honestly,
but these were my whole family came here and my friends.
They were drinking a beautiful cocktail as you can see.
I don't drink no alcohol so,
but it's for my family you know?
We have this whole Japanese,
everything for the sake.
You know like...
We brought everything from Japan and just like,
amazing to have all these.
We can come here of course.
There's more natural light.
We've got extra food for everyone.
We never know, I like to have people around
so I like to always have more.
We have some helmets here, super bikes and dirt bikes.
Um, here we have some Pilates.
I don't, my girlfriend does.
I'm trying to be nice, but I have to try it.
So it was raining, but we can go here.
[Upbeat music]
The pool, it's always hot.
A really beautiful vibe.
We have this place where we can, you know, walk and relax,
Here with the bonsai's and everything.
You can see a one-hundred year old bonsai over there.
One-hundred years, we've brought it from Japan.
To me it's like the most beautiful piece of art
that we have here.
And actually this one too,
this one have like fifty years old.
I mean when I was a kid, I was living,
I mean it wasn't in a house but it was in neighborhoods so.
We didn't have open places like this you know but,
it is definitely what I love,
being in contact with the nature.
I mean I love the city, just I mean I live in New York
when I'm not here, but-
but this definitely this is a badass for me, you know?
Right now we are in Jon Grande.
It's outside the city,
It's like in the mo chines and um...
As you can see everything is just,
it's- we surrounded by forests.
You know this is a whole forest.
There's no one near to me.
Just nature.
Like I want the nature to be the art and the place itself.
I love all the hopsum, some what but, not here.
I mean look around.
Oh, you can see the other shower here.
Beautiful vibes.
We have the barbecue here too. Barbecue.
You see we do a lot of barbecues here.
We do a lot of, a lot, trust me.
Lobster rolls, we do it here, we got
everything it's crazy here.
The basketball court.
I mean it's not a basketball court,
I put it in the outside just to play around.
We play here, sometimes.
Yeah we shoot around.
We got this beautiful tree here too.
The texture is amazing when you touch it,
it's just like...
I think this is where they use the-
the wirelets.
That's culture.
This is my boy Enzo.
That's the king of the house.
I love motorcycles, there's some motorcycles here.
There's even a garage and I love the classic Defender.
I don't like to flex, that's not my style.
But, there some toys here,
Chulandulo,
Superbikes.
The classic Testarossa, which is one of the most emblematics
from Ferrari and my two babies are the most important ones.
Look, my dogs.

Let's focus on the house.
So you can the house is black, everything is black.
You have another hidden bathroom here.
Crazy lighting.
Everything is black, the toilets are black, it's fire.
You can check it out if you want.
Black is really elegant man, and things like,

You know it's serious.
You know, and the contrast between the black and the wood.

See Inside J Balvin's Two Stunning Colombian Homes That He Says 'Feed My Soul, Not My Ego'
The 'X' and 'Mi Gente' singer owns two properties in Colombia - a loft in the city, and a massive, Japanese-inspired country house
When he's not in New York, music superstar J Balvin (nee José Álvaro Osorio Balvin) lives in his native Colombia, splitting his time between a loft in the city of Medellín, and a retreat in the mountains of Llanogrande, just 30 minutes away.
The "Machika" singer, 35, recently opened up the two homes in a cover story for Architectural Digest 's July/August issue, proving that despite his bold style choices — including hair that has been every color of the rainbow — the hitmaker prefers a minimalist feel in home design.
"Architecture, music, fashion — they're all forms of expression," Balvin explains to the publication of the two properties, both designed by Medellín-based firm 5 Sólidos. "When it comes to the places I live, I definitely take a less-is-more approach. A house should be a place where you can rest your spirit. I've tried to create places that feed my soul, not my ego."
In his Medellín apartment — which Balvin describes as one giant "man cave" — high ceilings, concrete floors and a muted color palette give the space an industrial feel, allowing his art collection to shine. Paintings and sculptures by artists like KAWS, WhIsBe, Josh Sperling, and Takashi Murakami splash color in an otherwise spare space, and give structure to the open floor plan. (There is only one door in the loft — to the bathroom).
A garage-style door leads out to the apartment's private pool, where Balvin likes to kick back. He describes the urban sanctuary as "a place where I can vibe with art and architecture, the things I love."
His country retreat in Llanogrande, on the other hand, is similarly artful, but is more family-focused. Balvin says that the home's design was influenced by Japan because he loves the energy of the country.
The majority of the expansive, one-level property — which is surrounded by lush jungle — is designed with black and oak wood features. Bonsai trees can be found both inside and outside the home.

In a video tour , Balvin shares that despite having an exquisite main suite — which is connected to a walk-in closet full of approximately 850 pairs of sneakers — he never actually sleeps in his bedroom. "I like to sleep around the different rooms… I don't like to get bored of my own places," he says.
The bedroom, like many of the rooms in the house, has a glass door that leads outside, allowing Balvin to take in his natural surroundings, with ample greenery providing plenty of privacy. He says he likes to sit outside and meditate , drink tea and think — often by the swimming pool, which runs down into a reflecting pool surrounded by areas to dine and lounge al fresco.
Eventually, he plans to turn the property into a massive compound , building cottages around the main house.
Balvin says he designed the home with hosting friends and family in mind, but that the space has also been a peaceful place to quarantine during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
"I really enjoy that it is a place where, basically, I'm living now," he says in the video. "Now that quarantine has started for like three months now, I'm really happy that I created the place that I wanted. It's not a place to show off, it's a place for my soul to rest."

inside j balvin's japanese-inspired sanctuary in colombia
contemplation, tranquility and a constant relation between interior and exterior are the key principles of this house designed by 5 sólidos for colombian superstar j balvin. located in llanogrande, just 30 minutes from medellín, colombia , casa dos aguas was inspired by a japanese aesthetic oriented towards openness and spatial fluidity, something balvin encountered after a trip to japan. ‘architecture, music, fashion—they’re all forms of expression. when it comes to the places I live, I definitely take a less-is-more approach,’ the latin grammy award– winning artist told architectural digest . ‘a house should be a place where you can rest your spirit. I’ve tried to create places that feed my soul, not my ego.’
planned initially as a reformation project, the casa dos aguas by 5 sólidos for j balvin maintains the original layout of the preexisting home. composed of two perpendicular volumes, which were opened up by a tall, imposing pitched roof, the house was cut across by a naturally illuminated wood corridor. as the project progressed and became more ambitious, the entire outdoor layout was proposed and added to the construction as a second phase.
nestled in a luscious green paradise, typically found in colombia’s mountain ranges, the understated pavilion lets nature be the protagonist. proposed as an ode to japanese simplicity juxtaposed with scandinavian elegance, both light and materiality constitute the essential theme that work together with balance and poise. from an array of bonsai to warm oak wood wrapping the floors, walls and pitched ceilings, the house has been furnished with an aesthetic that is honest, simple and carefully curated.
an art collector himself, j balvin also has a keen interest in design. the dinning chairs are thonet , vibia lamps illuminate the house, and osso stools by ronan and erwan bouroullec for mattiazzi invite to sit down. ‘jose is very demanding. he has a clear idea of what he likes and how he wants to live. you see it reflected in the artwork he collects, the books on the shelves, the neutral palette—every detail down to the sheets and towels,’ continued elisa ortega, 5 sólidos partner.
overall, as the architects say, the entire space has a sense of coherence and balance where the theme is translated into every detail of the house, creating a dialogue in every gesture and use of the space, where details are meant to create moments of awe.

Exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of J Balvin's new home
For our May 2022 issue's cover story we visit Reggaeton superstar J Balvin’s villa, designed by architects 5 Sólidos. Here, we peer into the shoot that took place in Medellin in Feburary 2022. The May 2022 Design Issue of Wallpaper* is on newsstands from 7 April.

It is not every day that a music superstar welcomes us into their home, so when our Cartagena-based contributor (since 2008, no less) Rainbow Nelson helped us get this invite from Colombian Reggaeton legend J Balvin , we naturally jumped to the opportunity. Not least because this is a musical maverick of enormous talent and influence; but also as the new J Balvin home we were invited to see was created by one of the country's most exciting architecture studios, 5solidos, led by Daniel Correa, Maria José Fernandez and Elisa Ortega out of their Medellin offce.
Our May issue's J Balvin home shoot
More portrait options shot at Casa Aire
Nelson and acclaimed photographer and long term Wallpaper* contributor Stefan Ruiz made the trip to the leafy mountains of Medellin to explore the elegant residence and talk to its illustrious owner last February. Named Casa Aire, the architecture is ‘zero flex’, to put it in the reggaeton lexicon of its owner, Nelson writes.
‘ I've lived in Colombia for 20 years and J Balvin has become something of a national treasure in that time,' he says. ‘He's absolutely huge here. He's been one of the country's most impressive musical success stories and Colombia loves a homegrown international success story. It was exciting to get the chance to meet him and see the outcome of his collaboration with 5Solidos - an impressive design and architecture studio that I've been following for a couple of years. Add to that the chance to impress my teenage boys who are big fans of Balvin and it was a story that I couldn't resist.'
Looking at the final imagery, It's impossible to guess that rain was pounding on the day of the shoot, thanks to Ruiz's photography magic
The architecture is of course, also striking - as is its location. Nelson continues: ‘The view's incredible. Jose [Balvin] picked an amazing spot high up in the hills outside Medellin and the architects did a brilliant job of honoring the natural setting. It's a very peaceful place. I'd say my favorite spot would be one of the Restoration Hardware sofas staring out at the changing landscape.' ‘It’s really, really subtle, because one thing is the way I express myself as an artist, the other one is the way my soul expresses itself,’ says Balvin, during the interview at Casa Aire. ‘This is my soul here. I’m not about flexing. When I come back home, my soul rests. It’s not about showing off, it’s about creating something with nature. Like everything in life, the simple things are the most amazing.’

Inside J Balvin's Japanese Design-Inspired Mansion
Today reggaeton superstar J Balvin welcomes Architectural Digest for a tour of his tranquil Colombian home
By Architectural Digest US | July 3, 2020 | Video
Medellín-based design firm 5 Sólidos completely gutted the existing structure, reimagining the space as a serene, understated pavilion. Elements like blackened wood siding and shoji-like framed linen doors and screens point to the influence of Japanese aesthetics. Warm planes of French oak wrap the interiors, coupled with an array of pared-down modern furnishings. In fact, the palette is only interrupted by an eruption of colour in J Balvin’s closet, where about 850 pairs of sneakers are displayed in what could pass for the world’s dopest shoe museum.

It is not every day that one can step inside the home of a reggaeton star. In the latest Design Issue of Wallpaper* , J Balvin takes fans on an exclusive tour of his tranquil and minimalist Medellín mountain retreat.
Named Casa Aire, Balvin worked alongside the architects at Cinco Sólidos to develop his zen escape from the hustling and bustling nature of his career. Sitting atop a lush mountain, the home has an aerial view of the infinite sea of green below, just an hour outside his hometown. The architectural design offers a balance between all five natural elements – earth, water, fire, air and aether – grounding the global star during his downtime from the world.

Where Does J Balvin Live And How Big Is His House?
J Balvin — whose full name is José Álvaro Osorio Balvín — is the kind of star that just seems to effortlessly attract both fame and fortune. Granted, the truth is that he's worked hard to get where he is. Thanks to popular songs like " Mi Gente " and " Tranquila ," as well as collaborations with fellow famous figures like Cardi B and Bad Bunny , Balvin has definitely put in what it takes to make it, and his star keeps on shining.
The "Colombian-born, Spanish-speaking reggaeton singer is among the most influential Latino artists changing the way the top-10 charts across America sound," O, The Oprah Magazine noted while also pointing out that the singer continues "to build on [the] momentum" that his career has already seen.
Thanks to that kind of impressive hit-making and money-making success, Balvin can afford to buy himself one heck of a home. And that's exactly what he's done. Or rather, he's nabbed two stellar abodes.
J Balvin has two stylish yet simplistic homes in Colombia
J Balvin is a global superstar, but when it comes to putting down roots? There's no place like home. As he told Rolling Stone in 2017, "I respect the ones who make it and leave their home base, but I'm good in Colombia." He has one home in Medellín and another in Llanogrande.
As for the vibe behind the spaces, Architectural Digest got a look inside in June 2020 and noted that while Balvin is known for his "tie-dyed ensemble[s] and rainbow-colored leopard-print hair" when he's on stage or in videos, "on the home front, Balvin eschews giddy theatrics and prismatic finery in favor of minimalist cool and Japanese-inflected decorative restraint." Indeed, far from what he puts on for fans as part of his public persona, his homes "are object lessons in the poetics of simplicity."
Medellín's 5 Sólidos design firm took on the task of creating the aesthetic that Balvin was looking for in his high-end residences. "Architecture, music, fashion — they're all forms of expression. When it comes to the places I live, I definitely take a less-is-more approach," he told AD. "A house should be a place where you can rest your spirit. I've tried to create places that feed my soul, not my ego." It seems safe to say that the star's incredible Llanogrande home would do just that.
J Balvin's Llanogrande home is 'nestled in an intoxicating jungle landscape'
When J Balvin is in Colombia, he can choose to spend time at his residence in Llanogrande. While he was living in what would "eventually become a guest cottage" when Architectural Digest profiled his homes in June 2020, he had plans for "a larger residential compound." Although what Balvin will end up living in will surely be incredible, his place sounds amazing as is. The house, as AD wrote, is "quietly nestled in an intoxicating jungle landscape" and was "completely gutted" in order to transform it into "a serene, understated pavilion." It's a stunner of a minimalist space that draws from Japanese design.
"It's not a place to show off," he said in a video tour for AD . "It's a place for my soul to rest." Outside, guests will find a spectacular swimming pool and deck area that's surrounded by lush greenery. Talking to AD about why he loves the yard so much, he said, "Water calms me down." And it doesn't hurt that the pool has, as he put it in the video tour, "a really beautiful vibe."
Oh, and let's not forget about the closet. It's hard to imagine that anyone would fail to be excited by a space that, as AD wrote, holds "about 850 pairs of sneakers (a mere portion of his king's ransom)." Showing off the breathtaking room in the video tour, Balvin said, "This is one of my favorite places." Can you blame him?
J Balvin's Medellín apartment has a private pool and impressive art
The fact that water has a calming effect on J Balvin may be why the star's second Colombian home also has a private pool — even though it's not a house, but an apartment in Medellín. According to Architectural Digest , "every unit in the seven-floor building has one." While that's certainly impressive, it's far from the only super-cool thing about this residence.
The apartment boasts a loft-like feel which is something that Balvin is seriously into. "I've always been fascinated by the idea of a New York loft — the original loft," he explained to AD . That's why, as the outlet noted, his home includes "high, exposed ceilings, concrete floors," and a "rugged aesthetic." It also features art pieces throughout the space, such as an enormous bear sculpture by WhIsBe by the kitchen. As Daniel Correa of 5 Sólidos told AD , "Art is really the protagonist here."
Balvin explained his connection to (and appreciation of what is found in) his loft, saying, "This is my man cave, a place where I can vibe with art and architecture, the things I love." And, of course, the location is a big win, too. As he said in Rolling Stone , "[H]opefully I can stay [in Medellín] for the rest of my life."

J. Balvín was born José Álvaro Osorio Balvín on the 7th of May 1985. Born and raised in Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia, he debuted as a reggaeton singer in 2009 and has since become one of the country’s biggest musical exports in recent memory.
The young Balvín was surrounded by music from an early age. There was a true melting pot of music that he heard on the radio in his youth, but it was the rap, champeta, bachata, and reggae that truly inspired him later in life. After studying music whenever he could during his schooling, he started writing and producing his own music in 2004 at the age of 19.
He amassed a back catalogue of 100 songs before signing to EMI Colombia in 2009, and his first single, the same years "Ella Me Cautivó”, made as much of a name for himself in the States as it did in his home country. Even from then on it was clear that this was an artist with an appeal that could cross continents.
His first album, “Real” was released the same year as well but it wasn’t until the year after when he became a star in his home country. His second album’s lead single "Ella Me Cautivó" went straight into the Colombian charts at number two and the third single from that album “En Lo Oscuro”, reached number one in 2011.
That year he was nominated for ten awards at the Premios Nuestra Tierra music awards but even then, things were only going to get better. His third album, 2013’s “La Familia”, went four times platinum in Colombia, platinum in Romania and Peru and Gold in Argentina and Venezuela. It was also his first record to chart on the Billboard Heatseekers chart as well.
He rounded off 2014 on an arena tour with Pitbull and Enrique Iglesias and his star continues to rise to this day. Where he goes next will hopefully propel him into the stratosphere, and we should all stick around to see it.
Live reviews
Starting his career in 2004, Colombian superstar J Balvin has relentlessly worked to extend his success as a Reggaeton artist and make a name for himself in the US. Signing to Capitol Records, Balvin released his debut album in 2013 ‘La Familia’ which went straight to the top of the Colombian charts. Not content with his success in his beloved homeland, he was eager to bring Reggaeton to New York and fluently learned English to assist him in achieving his goal. The fast rising star has recently scored the opening slot for global Latin superstars Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull which has seen his fan base rapidly grow. J Balvin is a natural born entertainer, happily playing two hour sets for his headline shows to hundreds of adoring fans. With plenty of street swagger and an abundance of charismatic charm, Balvin knows how to work the room with his largely female fan base who swoon as soon as he approaches the crowd, taking them by the hand encouraging them to dance along. Accompanied by a barrage of scantily-clad female dancers adds to the sexy, sultry and intensified atmosphere. Taking complete ownership of the stage Balvin has an incredible energy as he enthuses the crowd who can’t help but shake their hips to his infectious sound. Watch out, J Balvin is all set to blow up the Reggaeton scene!

This was ridiculous! I spent 130 CAD on this and LOST MY MONEY! You have been misleading your marketing in promoting this as a concert and performance. FRAUD! I bought my tickets only to find out it Was just ONLY a DJ playing music. I was going to drive 4 hrs to see this and called ahead before leaving and found out this information so now I’m out my money! I was denied a refund from the venue when I brought my complaint forward! I am taking my case the the better business bureau and exposing your site as FRAUDULENT. I have several screen shots showing you promoting as JBalvin and Bad Bunny headlining this show and that it was a concert. I am expecting a response from you. [email protected]
The show was amazing, I totally recommend every one to go if you're into this type of music if not you should go as well. Can't wait until he comes next time, I will be buying VIP since I didnt get the chance. For now all I have for memories is pictures and videos. I loved him and Becky G she did amazing. I will love to see her as well.
It was amazing!!! J Balvin knows how to entertain a crowd!! All his hit music!! He sang them all!!! Literally 75,000 people attended the concert and it was sold out!!!! It was the best experience I ever had!! If he comes back again to Houston I’m definitely gonna go see him!! It was amazing!! I loved it a lot!! #latina #jbalvin
The concert was so much fun!!! J Balvin was amazing, he was a great performer; the dancers were great the lights and graphic on the screen was sick. The energy was just so great, everyone was getting so into it. This was the best concert I have been to so far, J Balvin es el Rey de reggaeton, le amo ese guey
The show experience was amazing I had the VIP experience and it was great but the meet and greet was super rushed and that is what I would complain about . For all the money we spent we could only take one picture which wasn't fair. But other then that everything else was fine. Thank you God bless
The show was beyond expetation. Only drawback the scene and cenu where very small in comparison to other like Hammersmith Appolo or Indigo or O2 Greenwich! Everyone had a great time dancing and singing!!! Sad we need more dates!! He'/s super talented an passionate! I xan't resist
My second Latin American concert and loved it. Went with 2 other friends and we all had a great time. I only found out about this concert thanks to Songkick so I would defiantly recommend Songkick to all music lovers. Songkick is the best way to follow your favourite artist.
That was the best show I have ever seen. He is the one artist I’ve seen who had the crowd dancing the entire time. It was completely surreal, I knew every song by heart. He is a talented artist, and the overall ambiance and colors just added to the experience. Thank you!!
This show was one of the most amazing shows I've ever been to. J Balvin was great as usual and it was very colorful. The shows on the stage and the light and sound effects were worth watching and listening. I loved it and I hope to go again sometime.
