Covo Italian Furniture and Home Accessories

Covo is an Italian design brand known for expressive furniture, lighting and home accessories that combine elegance, simplicity and an unexpected sense of play. Its collection transforms familiar objects into memorable design statements through imaginative forms, purposeful details and thoughtful material choices.

Available through Scott + Cooner, Covo designs bring personality to contemporary residential and commercial interiors. From sculptural coat racks and versatile side tables to lighting, seating and tabletop objects, each piece balances visual character with practical function.

Italian Design with an International Perspective

Rooted in Italian design culture and shaped by collaborations with designers from around the world, Covo has developed a distinctive creative language. The brand brings together classical proportion, contemporary experimentation and subtle humor without allowing novelty to overshadow usability.

Covo’s designs are often reduced to a few clear lines or gestures. This apparent simplicity allows each object to communicate an idea while fitting naturally into a wide variety of interiors. A coat rack may resemble the branches of a tree, a table may appear almost weightless, and an ordinary household accessory may become a small piece of sculpture.

The result is a collection that feels refined yet approachable—design that attracts attention without dominating the room.

Not Common Things

Covo’s “Not Common Things” collection captures the brand’s philosophy particularly well. The series explores everyday objects through a more imaginative lens, creating useful pieces that also convey emotion, wit and narrative.

Rather than adding decoration for its own sake, Covo observes familiar forms and reinterprets them with clarity. These objects are simple enough to integrate into the home, but distinctive enough to remain in the memory.

The collection includes coat racks, shelving, mirrors, side tables, seating, lighting and decorative accessories. Individually, each design has a strong identity. Together, they form a varied vocabulary of contemporary objects connected by Covo’s balance of elegance and surprise.

Latva Coat Rack by Mikko Laakkonen

Designed by Mikko Laakkonen, the Latva coat rack is one of Covo’s most recognizable designs. Its name means “treetop” in Finnish, an idea reflected in the branching silhouette of its painted steel structure.

Latva provides a practical place to hang coats, bags and accessories while contributing a sculptural vertical element to the room. Multiple units can be arranged together to create a tree-like composition or a permeable space divider.

Its restrained geometry makes Latva suitable for entrances, bedrooms and dressing areas as well as offices, restaurants and hospitality environments. The related Latva Wall translates the same visual language into a compact wall-mounted format.

Illusion Table by Minna Niskakangas

The Illusion side table, designed by Minna Niskakangas, is a study in lightness and flexibility. Slender steel legs support a circular top, creating the impression of an object that occupies very little visual space.

Illusion functions as both a coffee table and a removable tray, making it easy to adapt for serving or everyday use. Contrasting matte and reflective patterns interact with changing light, giving the surface a subtle sense of movement.

Available in different sizes, the table works beside a sofa or lounge chair, in an entryway or as an understated accent within a hospitality setting.

Distinctive Furniture, Lighting and Accessories

Covo’s collection extends across furniture and smaller objects for the home. Chairs, stools, occasional tables and shelving provide functional foundations, while mirrors, coat racks, lamps and tabletop pieces add character and detail.

Designs such as Birds on Wire by Harry Allen turn storage into a graphic wall composition. Moonlight by Richard Hutten explores light through a poetic contemporary form, while My Frame by Emmanuel Gallina offers a refined interpretation of the picture frame.

The variety of the collection allows Covo pieces to work as individual accents or as part of a broader interior concept. Their compact scale also makes many designs especially effective in apartments, entryways and other spaces where every object must contribute both function and visual interest.

Tableware with an Inventive Point of View

Covo applies the same imagination found in its furniture to objects for dining and entertaining. Its table collection includes serving pieces, glassware, tea and coffee accessories, cutlery and other functional objects.

Seasons by Nao Tamura reinterprets serving ware through forms inspired by leaves, nature and Japanese culture. Flexible, multipurpose pieces can be used individually or layered together to create a sculptural presentation.

These designs elevate daily rituals without making them feel overly formal. They also make thoughtful gifts for clients and design enthusiasts who appreciate useful objects with a clear creative identity.

Collaborations with International Designers

Covo interprets and develops the creative vision of a diverse international group of designers. Its collaborators include Vico Magistretti, James Irvine, Emmanuel Gallina, Harry Allen, Richard Hutten, Nao Tamura, Mikko Laakkonen and Minna Niskakangas.

Additional partnerships with designers such as Setsu and Shinobu Ito, Emmanuel Babled, Jerszy Seymour, Ari Kanerva and Ilaria Marelli have expanded the collection through different cultural and creative perspectives.

This collaborative model gives Covo’s portfolio its variety while the brand’s emphasis on elegance, simplicity and function provides continuity. Each designer’s voice remains recognizable, yet the finished object still belongs naturally within the Covo collection.

Design That Balances Form and Function

Although Covo products often have a playful or poetic quality, they remain grounded in practical use. Materials and construction methods are selected to support each object’s purpose, whether that means the structural stability of a steel coat rack or the flexibility of a multipurpose table.

The designs avoid unnecessary complexity. Clear forms make them easy to understand and use, while carefully considered proportions help them work in both residential and professional interiors.

This balance makes Covo particularly appealing for spaces that call for personality without visual clutter. A single expressive object can add color, movement or humor while remaining useful every day.

Covo for Residential and Commercial Interiors

Covo furniture and accessories can provide memorable finishing touches throughout the home. Coat racks and mirrors define an entrance, side tables and lighting enrich living spaces, and distinctive tabletop pieces add interest to kitchens and dining rooms.

The collection is also well suited to offices, boutiques, restaurants and hospitality projects. Sculptural forms create visual landmarks, while compact dimensions and functional designs make the products easy to incorporate into shared environments.
