Covet Valley An Homage to Hollywood’s Golden Age In the fruitful and embracing fields of green that compose the imposing Douro Valley, lies something that nearly outshines the landscape: Covet Valley. A haven for vintage design enthusiasts, Covet Valley combines the mid-century inspired collections of Essential Home and Delightfull in order to create an interior that appears to have been transported in time. Alongside these retro driven brands, you will find Maison Valentina that, through its unique bathroom pieces, helps bring the age-old powder room aesthetic to life.
This gorgeous house overlooks one of the most striking rivers in the world - the Douro River - and yet, the décor manages to be just as awe-inspiring as the view. Combining a retro feel, reminiscent of Hollywood’s Golden Age, with a Portuguese twist. Covet Valley takes you on a nostalgic voyage thanks to its impeccable handmade furnishings with strong 50’s and 60’s influences. Browsing through the building, you will come across dashing pieces of lighting and upholstery and well as some magnificent rugs and casegoods, all coming together to transport this modern-day house to an era known for its glitz and glam.
Nevertheless, the journey meets its peak when one gets to the bathrooms of this superb residence slash showroom. In one of the astounding powder rooms, a scenery of black tiles overflows the room with a sense of mystique and mystery that would be a perfect fit for the big screen. The all black opulent bathroom is brought to life by highlights of red - thanks to a beautiful flower arrangement - and gold, given to it by the hardware of Maison Valentina’s indulgent bathroom pieces, such as the Sapphire Mirror.
However, the Sapphire is not the only jewel bedazzling this noir bathroom. The Diamond Freestanding also offers its dazzling gold tapware and gold-plated stand, along with its abstract geometric shape that makes it so unique, to this bold retro bathroom design, making it as unforgettable as it is timeless. Decorating one of the other guest bathrooms in this inviting villa is another one of Maison Valentina’s most iconic mirrors: The Koi Mirror. Inspired by the koi fish and its scales, the Koi Mirror is a shield-shaped mirror with delicate round cut-outs that just fits any mid-century modern interior like a glove.
The Koi Mirror, in its turn, is paired with the outstanding Lapiaz Freestanding: a rectangular freestanding with a wooden structure coated in stainless steel, that features an incredible fissure handcrafted in polished brass, reminiscent of natural karst formations produced by the dissolution of limestone rocks.
The sink of this freestanding washbasin shows off a golden interior moulded in an organic shape, inspired by the same phenomenon as the body of the freestanding. This sink is also available separately, as an individual vessel sink, homonymous to the freestanding: the Lapiaz Vessel Sink.
The Lapiaz Vessel Sink – part of Maison Valentina’s ATO Collection – embellishes the last bathroom of this lavish home with its casted brass organic shape. Echoing its golden shine, is the Eden Towel Rack, a stunning and practical accessory inspired by the ethereal garden of Ede with a tree stump-shaped base with tree rings embossing. This glowing golden duo serves as the perfect way to round-out a home that pays homage to the classic idea of glitz and glam.
