Hygge homes provide the ideal setting to bask in natural light as winter draws near. Keep curtains open and place mirrors near windows to maximize how much natural light enters your living space.
Personalize your hygge design by including accessories that hold sentimental or emotional value or bring back fond memories from past experiences. Perhaps hanging family photographs or displaying souvenirs from vacations you’ve enjoyed.
Soft Textures
Soft textures are essential elements of the hygge aesthetic, from cozy sherpa blankets and cozy knit pillows, rustic wood surfaces, woven materials like jute area rugs or natural textures that provide warmth while soothing.
Consider mixing materials to add visual interest and dimension to your space. For instance, pairing a jute rug with antique silver serving pieces or vintage wooden benches creates an authentic and timeless atmosphere in any room. Also try layering in some subtle art pieces to personalise and personalize it further.

Cozy Nooks

Make any cozy hygge space feel even cozier by personalizing it with photographs of loved ones or displaying trinkets that bring you happiness on tables and mantels. Create an ideal reading spot by placing a lounge chair by the fireplace with soft throws and pillows nearby – these little touches can truly bring it all together for you.
Add scent-filled candles to any cozy hygge living space to increase the relaxing ambiance. A natural-scented soy candle or diffuser are popular choices that provide safe and effective ways to spread fragrance throughout the room.

Personal Touches
Hygge is all about creating a cozy lifestyle that brings people together. Create an environment conducive to socializing by including furniture that seats multiple people simultaneously – such as an inviting sofa with soft cushions or dining table that welcomes all.
Neutral colors tend to work best when it comes to creating an atmosphere of comfort in a hygge-inspired room, such as light grays, tans and browns which provide a soothing backdrop. Your guests will quickly relax into this environment.
Displaying treasured trinkets, photos of loved ones or stacks of books will add a personal touch and foster feelings of emotional comfort in any hygge-inspired room.
Create an authentic look by playing around with textures to make an eye-catching statement about who you are and your personal story. Layering soft sherpa blankets and cozy knit throws will make for eye-catching layers that are both aesthetically appealing and inviting to the touch, adding pops of color with frames of photos or decorative pillows in your favorite hue, adding rustic elements like pinecones stacked neatly in a small tray, etc.
