Ask design enthusiasts about Boca do Lobo, and they’ll likely throw adjectives like “unique” and “mesmerizing” your way. After all, what words are appropriate for a brand that puts out sideboards with gold-lined interiors and cabinets made of pixelated African wood?
Boca do Lobo is one of the 12 brands under the Covet House umbrella, a Portuguese company established in 2005 whose holdings also include Brabbu, LUXXU, Pullcast, and Maison Valentina, lines that receive a fair share of accolades for their products as well.
“I became an admirer of the brand after visiting the headquarters in Porto and seeing its commitment to craftsmanship firsthand,” says Elmar R. Benavente, founder of BE Design Associates in Boca Raton. “What stood out was how the brand blends classic and contemporary elements to create timeless yet avant-garde pieces. I was fascinated.”
So fascinated in fact, that he worked out a deal with the company to open the first Covet House showroom in Florida in late 2024. Located at Boca Raton’s Royal Palm Place, the 2,500-square-foot location is meant to acquaint visitors with Covet House’s vast catalogue, as well as its optimal customization capabilities. “The idea with the showroom was to create an immersive experience,” says Benavente. “The layout makes it easier to understand scale, proportion, and how different design elements interact.”
On-site are standout pieces from the aforementioned Boca do Lobo, and others such as Maison Valentina’s Newton bathtub, a sculptural piece marked by a profusion of high-gloss black and gold spheres. “We offer a full holistic approach to luxury design,” says Benavente, “and we have exciting plans for much more.”
