The front door opens into the kitchen, which has been upgraded with stainless steel appliances.
A black spiral staircase is centrally located in the apartment, with dark wooden floors and a trendy brick accent wall.
High ceilings give the apartment a spacious feeling.
Deacon proudly showed off the vinyl records on display in the living room, as well as his plant ‘Darryl’, which sits in a bright yellow pot next to a comfortable chair.
There is lots of funky artwork and furniture that gives the apartment a retro vibe.
Deacon then moved the tour upstairs so he could give Simpson a look at his room that doubles as a music studio.
He has a gigantic bed and lots of music equipment along the walls.
Deacon – whose father is actor Ryan Phillippe – has a full-size keyboard, recording setup, Mac computer and more to bring his music to life.
He took a quick look at the kitchen, including a look at the items in the refrigerator.
After Simpson shared the video on TikTok on Tuesday, Deacon joked that filming the tour made me “late to class.”
Deacon graduated from Mountain High School in June 2022 and began studying music at NYU that fall.
During the first year, Deacon lived in a student house on campus, which he regularly showed on his Instagram at the time.
NYU has an excellent music department at their high school, the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development.

Proud mom: Earlier this year, Reese told PEOPLE that dropping her kids off at college means she’s “done (my) job right”
Last year, Deacon’s father Ryan attended AND about how ‘proud’ he is of Deacon for pursuing higher education.
‘He’s about to go to music school. That is his primary focus. The acting he likes to do, and he will do it depending on what he feels like doing, but his main focus is on music,” the Cruel Intentions star said.
His mother Reese shared a similar sentiment earlier this year, as she shared PEOPLE that dropping her kids off at college means she’s done (my) job well.
‘And I’m so proud of my children. They are thriving in the world and I am so happy for them,” she said.
Deacon’s sister Ava, 24, is also a West Coast student at the University of California, Berkeley.
