A couple of weeks ago we told you about a video tour you could watch of Neil Patrick Harris’ Harlem home, courtesy of Architectural Digest. If you watched the video, you got a glimpse of his room dedicated to antique “retro” magic. Harris appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! the other night and Kimmel wanted to know more about it, and Harris was only too happy to oblige. For starters, the room is hidden, which serves double-duty of appealing to Harris’ appreciation for Scooby Doo-like secret passages and of keeping the kids out until they’re older.

You can watch the interview, and perhaps get some ideas for your own home design projects, AFTER THE JUMP…
