As the cover star of Vogue's May issue , Kim Kardashian West was recently photographed and filmed at her secluded home in Hidden Hills, California.

In particular, a video for the magazine's "73 Questions" series gave fans an intimate look inside the West family mansion a rarity considering how she and her husband, Kanye West, had previously agreed not to show their home on social media.

When asked how she would describe her home, Kardashian West told Vogue, "I would say, like, a minimal monastery."

It's unclear whether this is the master bedroom. Vogue's Jonathan Van Meter described the West's bedroom as "the size of an airplane hangar."

Kanye West once tweeted a photo of one of their home's bright, airy hallways.

He captioned the image, "do this look like the sunken place" with a crying-while-laughing emoji referring to the void where black people are held captive in "Get Out."

Kardashian West also revealed in a video that the home's light switches "are just three little buttons" on the wall, sans the traditional box surrounding them.

She said she thinks the design is "really cool and more visually appealing ."

"[The kitchen] is an astonishment of clean, clear surfaces, nary a pot nor pan in sight," Van Meter wrote in Kardashian West's Vogue feature.

According to Van Meter, the long table "comfortably seats 20."

As Van Meter wrote, the staff kitchen is "where the family inevitably winds up spending most of their time together."
