Inside the Hollywood-Alt Home of Colman Domingo: A Look at the Actor’s Personal Space
Colman Domingo: The Hollywood Star Who Found Home in Southern Los Angeles
Award-winning actor, writer, director, producer, and now professor, Colman Domingo is a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment industry. Known for his versatile roles in projects like Euphoria and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Colman is a true “joyful disruptor” who continues to captivate audiences with his talent.
But beyond the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, Colman has found solace in his home in Southern Los Angeles. Reflecting on his journey to homeownership, Colman admits, “To be honest, I never thought I would own a home—once you start to think about a home you start thinking about things like generational wealth.” His dwelling is a treasure trove of memories, filled with meaningful keepsakes and gifts that tell the story of his life.
Making the unexpected move from New York to Los Angeles, Colman and his husband, Raúl Domingo, have transformed their space into a welcoming oasis for guests and laughter. As a decorator, Colman has taken on the challenge of curating a space that reflects his unique style and personality. From vintage furniture to replica pieces, every corner of their home exudes warmth and charm.
Working alongside Raúl, whom he met in a serendipitous encounter at a Walgreens in 2005, Colman embarked on a six-month house hunting journey that led them to their perfect abode. Tucked away on an unassuming street, their home has become a sanctuary for star-studded dinner parties and intimate gatherings.
“No one ever suspects Hollywood is coming through this door,” Colman jokes, highlighting the sense of privacy and tranquility he has found in his Southern Los Angeles retreat. As he continues to make his mark in the entertainment industry, Colman Domingo has also found a place where he can truly be himself—a place where his alter egos stay at the door, and his true self shines through.
