Hygge Style

There is a hygge interior design approach, a way of arranging a home and organizing space that exists.

Meaning of Hygge

There is a word in every language that is impossible to translate. Hygge is a Danish word that was brought into usage in the mid-nineteenth century. Translators disagree on at least two points: some say that “hygge” is derived from a historical term meaning “hugs,” while others believe it is derived from a Scandinavian noun meaning “mood.” However, what lies beneath them is not a physical item or even a phenomenon but a complex of experiences and emotions.

Philosophy of Style

“Hygge” refers to “comfort that makes you joyful.” The hygge ideology is based on simplicity and moderation. For example, one of the most well-known supporters of “hygge.” He says that Hygge is an intimate, home lifestyle with inappropriate extravagant richness and glamour. 

Interior Design Style 

Although Scandinavians are part of the whole year, hygiene is essential to them in the long, dark winter because the days are short and the nights are long. There is, therefore, no better place than Scandinavian interior design to explore ideas. By celebrating natural materials, scandinavian design frequently deals with beauty, simplicity, and functionality. The Scandinavian-style homes are light and bright, bare and un-compromised. But there is also a strong sense of warmth and living with this inclination to minimalism. Some rustic design ideas are therefore at stake, particularly in the materials. In the Scandinavian style, the furniture contains natural elements such as stone, tissue, and light wood finishing. These qualities are an excellent starting point when integrating hygiene elements into your house.

Hygge-Style Interior: 

Furnishings

Danish homes that value hygiene should be more furnished. Consumption that is reasonable and recyclable are two concepts you can “steal” from the Danes. In a Danish home, furniture can be purposefully compact, practical, and affordable. Additionally, many design studios now provide so-called hygge furniture: simple-shaped but highly elastic, enveloping the body couches and sofas, little tea tables, and candlestick shelves. The Danish home might be furnished in the tradition of King Christian X using ancient antiques. Tables with sliding tabletops, sofas with gently curved backs and armrests, and seats with curling legs all fall within this category.

Additionally, bricks, natural stone, and ceramics have a place. The brickwork’s warm tone and rough texture convey a sense of reliability and security, which, along with the wood, fits perfectly into the style concept. In the kitchen and bathroom, ceramics are used. Stone is used to trim Scandinavian stoves and fireplaces. In such an environment, there is not a pair of lamps but a swarm of them that are lateral, localized, and so on. Floor lamps and lovely, vintage lampshades that distribute soft, dreamy light take the stage.

Additionally, the entrances and windows of Danish houses are frequently adorned with garlands similar to those used during the winter holidays. The residents of Copenhagen have lit a candle in their living areas and bedrooms in the evenings. They dine by candlelight, sip their spicy pastries, and bathe.
