Redefine the comforts of home with Hygge: the ever-evolving Dansk concept which prompts us to seek refuge from our media-rich lives and find calm, cozy contentment.
Comforts of Home
Embodied perfectly by soft, luxurious rugs underfoot such as the Blocchi Area Rug with its modern take on the Killim, Hygge prompts us to elevate everyday items with comfort as the main organizing principle. Bring on warm blankets, tea, candlelight and spending quality time with your loved ones. This Nordic approach to inspired coziness is perfectly summed up by our Still Teapot as the collective’s customary wit and irreverence transform an item whose main function is to soothe, into an object d’art.
Warm Geometries
As Hygge evolves, simple geometries continue to anchor us in comforting blocks of soft wool and hand-tufted neutrals. Rust gains traction as a new neutral bringing both warmth and the element of clay into what is often erroneously thought of as an all-white aesthetic. Whether we opt to add organic color-blocking to small spaces with a small rug such as the Kelim Rug or go all out and define a space in varying chromatic shades of calm from The Capas Collection—the evolution of Hygge will finds its best expression in layers of casual, quality luxury.
Comforting Nordic Shag
Of course, when talking of layered comfort, Hygge would not be truly Nordic without layers of suggested or literal Animalia. Harking back to the deep, cold winters of their Viking past, this trend orbits heavily around the notion of bringing comforts of the natural world indoors. Easily accomplished with any of our shag rugs, layers of softness can transform any space into a cozy lair. Looking for a more feminine take on Viking comfort? The Knitting Lounge Chair made of solid oak and plush sheepskin upholstery is the perfect addition to any corner looking for premium relaxation.
