Description
Hygge is a Danish word describing a mood of contentment, cosiness and comfort and it covers many dimensions of a person’s life. In this class, I explain the interconnection between Hygge and the Danish culture and focus on the elements of design that make a home, particularly Hygge.
Along the way, you will learn fun facts about Denmark and some great examples of Danish Design.
This class is divided into three parts:
1. The 4 principles of Hygge and the activities that describe them
2. The 5 elements of interior design that make a home, particularly Hygge
These are Ambience, Natural Materials, Textiles, Vintage ( plus Antique and Handmade) things and The Nook.
3. Class project. A worksheet for you to go through and start making your home more Hygge
According to the European Social Survey, the Danes are the happiest people in Europe. While there are many political, cultural and social reasons why that is, Hygge is also one aspect that contributes to that. Hygge is about creating a feeling, not a style, so why not actively design your home for more comfort and cosiness?
For more reading, have a look at the book « The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well. » by Meik Wiking.
