Scandinavian design - it’s all about HYGGE!

Hello, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Adrianna I am studying Scandinavian Studies in Kielce, Poland and I would like to introduce you to my interests about Scandinavia.

Scandinavian design - it’s all about  HYGGE!

Let’s shed some light on the term:

HYGGE can be described (maybe we can only try to explain what it is because there’s no simple definition) as an artistry of creating an esthetic place where, you can feel freely, rest from the fast pace of our life. It’s all about creating small everyday rituals that can make our life a lot more enjoyable. We also have to remember it is a lot more than a nice space that you can spend your time in. It is also an attitude of the people that gather to enjoy being together. That is what we Europeans have to learn from the Danish, and whole Scandinavia in the purpose of not losing our mind!

An amazing, cozy space that makes you want to chill with your family, friends, or your beloved person - or maybe the best option would be to gather them all! This is what a Scandinavian home looks like. From the far you can see a quite minimalistic space, but when you look to the details - the amount furry and woolen blankets and pillows makes the place ideal to make you feel internal peace and happiness. The small chimney and small candles complement the space and feeling you get while spending time there is Hygge for sure!

  

Let's take a look at the other examples of the Scandinavian design, that are likely to combine
  simple, and modern style with retro furniture and rustic vibes.

Who wouldn’t like to take a short nap while being wrapped in the beautiful scent of fresh wood…

From this picture it is easy to see how easy it is to make old furniture look very fashionable
 by just adding some accessories.

 A very modern living space with a hint of old fashioned furniture - like that leather pouffe and an orange retro chair.
 This is one of the places that you would see in a magazine and tell - yes it is very Scandinavian. 

Let’s please the eye with some other amazing interiors.

I have to say that I would also like to have some Scandinavia in my home and this year I will make an attempt 
to turn my living room into a space right from interior design magazine! I will keep you guys updated on that.

I will post my articles regularly on Wednesday and Friday so please keep updated!

See you soon - Adrianna Wawrzyniak
