Italian Style That Goes Beyond the Kitchen: How to Create a Beautifully Connected Home

Do you ever walk into a gorgeous open-plan kitchen and then feel a bit… disconnected from the rest of the living space? It’s a common problem, isn’t it? You’ve put so much thought into every detail of your kitchen, from the layout to the finishes, but the living room and dining area feel like an afterthought. They might look nice on their own, but they don't quite tell the same story.

This is a familiar feeling for many homeowners across Ireland. Our homes have evolved, and so has the way we live in them. The kitchen is no longer a separate, functional room; it’s the hub where family dinners turn into late-night chats, where kids do their homework, and where guests naturally gather. So, it makes perfect sense to want the surrounding spaces to reflect that same warmth and style.

At Cucine Lube, we understand this completely. That’s why we’re so passionate about our Living LUBE furniture systems. These aren't just pieces of furniture, they're intelligent, beautiful solutions designed to create a unified and stunning "daytime area" that flows seamlessly from one room to the next. The goal is to bring that unmistakable Cucine Lube quality and design into every corner of your living space, making your entire home feel whole.

The Heart of Your Home: A Cohesive Space

The feeling of a disjointed home can be a real headache. When a room feels unfinished or doesn’t quite match the elegant style of your kitchen, it can create visual chaos and even make the space feel smaller than it is. It's a problem that goes beyond aesthetics; it affects the way you live. How do you relax in a living room that feels like it's in a different house? How do you host a dinner party when the dining area feels awkward and separate?

By creating a cohesive space, you solve all these problems at once. A unified design creates a sense of calm and order, making your home feel bigger and more luxurious. It’s about building a space that works for you, so you can move effortlessly from cooking a family meal to relaxing on the sofa, all within one harmonious area. Our Italian living room furniture is designed with this kind of life in mind. It ensures that every piece, from a sleek sideboard to a clever bookcase, contributes to a single, elegant vision.

The true magic happens when your furniture is an extension of your lifestyle. It’s not just about what looks good, but about what works. When you sit down with our designers, we don’t just ask about colours, we ask about how you live. Do you love to host big gatherings? Do the kids need a dedicated space for their toys and books? We get to the heart of what you need, and then we use the incredible flexibility of the Living LUBE systems to bring that vision to life.

Finding Your Style: Modern, Classic, or Something in Between

Just as with our kitchens, the Living LUBE furniture systems offer three distinct style paths, allowing you to choose the one that resonates most with your personal taste.

For those who are drawn to clean lines, minimalist shapes, and a look that feels refreshingly simple, our modern furniture is the perfect choice. It’s about creating a living space that feels open and uncluttered, without sacrificing an ounce of style. For example, imagine a stunning, high-gloss Brera kitchen flowing effortlessly into a living space with a simple, elegant sideboard and minimalist floating shelves. It’s clean, calm, and so easy to live with, and because the same finishes are available, the visual continuity is seamless. This style is all about making your space feel bigger and more sophisticated through intelligent design.

On the other hand, if you love the warmth and comfort of a home with a timeless feel, you’ll adore our classic furniture options. These pieces bring a rich, inviting charm to your living and dining areas, creating spaces that feel as cosy as they are elegant. Think of a beautiful Agnese Style kitchen with its panelled doors and warm tones. You can carry that exact feeling into your dining area with a rich, wood sideboard and a traditional display cabinet that holds your favourite family photos or heirlooms. It’s a design that feels instantly welcoming and perfect for making lasting memories.

Finally, for many of us, the perfect style is a mix of both. This is where our contemporary designs truly shine. They blend the best elements of modern and classic looks, allowing for a creative, personalised aesthetic. Maybe your kitchen is a sleek, dark finish, but you want to soften the living area to make it more inviting. You could introduce a modular bookcase with bold metal frames and warm wood shelves. This creates a cool industrial vibe that still feels incredibly warm and liveable. This approach gives you the freedom to express yourself, mixing materials and textures to create a truly unique space that's all your own.

Integrated or Independent: Solutions for Your Home

The beauty of Living LUBE lies in its flexibility, offering both integrated and independent solutions to fit any home layout in Ireland. Our integrated solutions are perfect for those who are building or renovating a home and want a truly open-plan feel. These furniture systems are designed to physically connect to your kitchen units. This creates a natural, unbroken line from one area to the next, using the same colours, materials, and handles. The effect is simply stunning. It’s a sophisticated design choice that visually links your kitchen to your living area, making the entire space feel bigger, more polished, and incredibly intentional. It's the ultimate answer to the problem of a disjointed living space.

On the other hand, we also offer a wide range of independent solutions. These are standalone pieces of Italian living room furniture that don’t physically attach to the kitchen but are designed to perfectly match its style. This is an ideal option if you already have a Cucine Lube kitchen and simply want to add a coordinating sideboard, TV unit, or display cabinet. It gives you the freedom to furnish your space piece by piece, while still maintaining that cohesive Cucine Lube aesthetic. It’s all about giving you control and flexibility to create the home that works for you.

The Details That Tie It All Together

A well-designed space is made up of thoughtful details, and the Living LUBE collection includes everything you need to create a functional and stylish home. For instance, our modular metal bookcases are so much more than just a place to store books. They're design statements that can act as a stunning room divider in a large open-plan area, or a beautiful display unit for your favourite photos and decor. They add vertical interest and a sense of structure to your living space, giving you an excellent way to show off your personality.

In a similar vein, partitions and wall panelling are brilliant tools for defining different zones without the need for walls. In a modern Irish home with an open layout, a stylish partition can gently separate the kitchen from the living room, creating a feeling of distinct areas while still allowing light and conversation to flow freely. This helps solve the problem of a large, undefined space feeling overwhelming and formless.

And, of course, no living or dining area is complete without a smart storage solution. Our sideboards and display units are a perfect solution. They offer ample storage for everything from dinnerware to electronics, helping you keep your space tidy and clutter-free. But more than that, they are elegant furniture pieces in their own right, finished with the same exceptional quality as our kitchens, ensuring every detail contributes to a perfect, unified look.

Your Home, Your Story

Ultimately, creating a connected home is about telling a story—your story. By extending the design principles of your Italian kitchen into your living and dining areas, you’re not just matching furniture, you’re creating a space that feels personal, polished, and perfectly suited to the way you live. If you're ready to create a home that flows seamlessly from one room to the next, we invite you to explore the possibilities with our Living LUBE systems.
