We believe that design is everywhere. There are so many inspirations available that anything that can be turned into an incredible piece of furniture or be the starting point of an impressive project. CovetED brings you some of the news and trends of the design world that will surely inspire many changes to come.
Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos was invited to create a monumental installation for the opening of the new Boston Contemporary Art Museum in the United States on February 22nd, 2020. The piece will be created specifically for the MassArt Art Museum (MAAM) space, in what will be Vasconcelos’ first solo exhibition in the United States. Part of the Valkyrie series, the piece was created to honour Elizabeth ‘Mumbet’ Freeman, an enslaved woman whose legal battle for freedom in 1781 helped outlaw slavery in the US state of Massachusetts. Titled ‘Valkyrie Mumbet’ (2020), the oversized piece, with a centre from which tentacle arms come out, will be suspended.
Revealed during Salone del Mobile 2019 in Milan, the Smart Wood Collection by Philippe Starck for Kartell was born from an ecological engagement and the continuous search for innovation. Using patented technology, the wood is worked with a mould designed to bring the curvature of the panel to the very edges, creating a seat with sinuous roundness, combining the beauty of the wood and its ability to connect to nature with extraordinarily ergonomic lines. For the first time ever, Kartell has managed to bring three-dimensionality to a product that, until now, had been two-dimensional. The collection features pieces of furniture that combine timeless elegance with contemporary shapes.
Covet House is known for its design experiences and Covet London is an intimate encounter attached to an authentic scenario. Conceived with different collections of furniture, lighting and accessories, Covet London now has a new image, with fresh designs that represent a totally different experience (changed for the better, of course!). The private showflat in the heart of London offers an intimate design reality since it is decorated as a real home. If you liked the old designs, you will love the new ones – schedule a visit and see for yourself! You will be guided along the tour so you can also understand the amazing stories behind each piece, making sure you get the full design experience.
Paris is always a good idea but in 2020 it will be an even better one. The Bvlgari Hotel Paris will open its doors in the prestigious address of 30 Avenue George V. The Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts latest jewel will feature 76 rooms, a 25-metre pool, bar and restaurant, as well as a Parisian courtyard. Set on an exquisite corner of the Triangle d’Or, the Hotel will be designed by Italian architectural firm Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel and will combine the classic Parisian Haussmann-style with a contemporary rationalistic façade.
Set within the perimeter of the Palace grounds, Le Grand Contrôle will be the only hotel of its kind in the world, offering exclusive access and experiences at Château de Versailles to staying guests. The 14-bedroom luxury hotel will feature the 18th-century style, with architect and interior designer Christophe Tollemer in charge of its design. Besides having a private spa, guests will also be able to indulge in a first-class restaurant led by Alain Ducasse, who has been a partner in the exciting project from the very beginning. The sprawling royal residence plans on opening its doors on the spring of 2020.
With only 72 rooms and suites, Cheval Blanc Paris is a historic building with a contemporary spirit imagined by the worldwide renowned Peter Marino.
