THE ULTIMATE INSPIRATION BOOK OF
KITCHENS &DINING ROOMS The most powerful tool to boost creativity
COVET HOUSE COLLECTION
INSPIRE YOURSELF A starting point coming from our intellect, emotions or prompt action.... these are all paths we internally build to create what we call Inspiration. It is a process, a way of living to achieve what we aim for. If there was a path to bring innovation and ideas, what would it be? Anything can inspire us, but with the amount of information we are exposed to nowadays, our mind can simply get overwhelmed. A book by itself can be a unique product, open to multiple interpretations and an inspiration tool to different people in many different ways. But a book can also be a technical tool, simply organized, to help you bring your ideas into life. Covet House has the purpose of inspiring the design community with its new collection of inspirational books. This collection is one of the most powerful tools to boost creativity amongst the interior design community. This collection is composed of a series of different books for each room division. Every book has a deeper exploitation of ideas and a wide range of styles. This book contains hundreds of ideas for Kitchens and Dining Rooms selected by a team of interior designers who searched for projects all over the world. It is a blend of projects from renowned interior designers and a combination of materials from the most luxurious and exquisite brands.
Introducing
KITCHENS DININGROOMS WORLDWIDE SELLECTION Food nurtures the mind, body and soul. The Kitchen is by many considered to be the heart of the home, a place of bonding experiences. The dining room serves the continuation of this experience. Although different cultures have different ways of interacting with these spaces, generally the kitchen and the dining room should be designed to be welcoming and conductive for people to come together. These are rooms where you can make a real statement, whether about your cooking skills or your personal tastes.
The interior design of a dining room or a kitchen has to be capable of combining practicality with aesthetics. However, we can emphasize the practicality part in the kitchen and the aesthetics in the dining room. Take into consideration your decor, your lifestyle and how frequently you will use the space when you’re planning a layout. The harmonious synthesis between innovation and tradition meets here in an exclusive and sophisticated gathering of the classic and modern design in dark tones.
We used very much wood in the interior to decorate the walls, the floors and partially the ceiling. This material creates a remarkable atmosphere and smells fantastic.

Notice how the bright color and clear table allow visual airiness. Traditional dining rooms can be generously proportioned whereas smaller-scale furnishings in modern designs will suit contemporary tastes well. Open plans are still trending, and many, whether urban or suburban, integrate dining spaces into contiguous living and kitchen areas. Be generous with circulation clearances in open plan interiors while balancing formality using artwork and its position within a kitchen area. In this example notice how the bright color and clear table allow visual airiness while the rug brings color, texture, warmth and style to the dining room.
Objects
do not have meaning. But if an object is thoughtful we project meaning onto it in daily life. Karim Rashid
Use marble to give a classic touch to your dining room dĂŠcor while still staying modern. A decorative lighting piece really sets the tone of the entire dining room, as you can understand, and so it has a greater aesthetic importance than in the kitchen, where in contrast, you will need more practical and brighter lighting. You can also use marble to give a classic touch to your dining room dĂŠcor while still staying modern. It is great for table tops with its qualities and texture.

The word Glamour was originally referred to a magic spell, to cast and illusion, but in modern usage glamour or the “Golden Age”, is considered a personal style, The use of the surroundings through the composition, the play of light by creating mysterious shadows. It’s best known by the bold use of color and contrast often with metallic and glass accents meant to signify both opulence and comfort. It is a style meant to be extravagantly unbalanced, yet sleek and modern, with blocks of contrasting color, from dark near-blue to bright pale seafoam.
