the Hygge in your home: a totally Danish novelty
Have you ever wondered what is the best way to make your home a happier environment? Although there may be many precautions that can be had, it must be remembered that this is not always a simple undertaking. Both because we are a bit of a victim of fashions, and because it is not possible to make our home the projection of our personality 100%.
Yet, there is a real Danish philosophy that is based precisely on achieving a state of well-being indoors.
We therefore decided to write a small guide, in the wake of this philosophy, to try to understand what the dictates of the hygge are. We will soon find out why this news is going crazy among home owners!
The happiest country in the world, Denmark, has given birth to this completely innovative mood. The core of this philosophy is basically one: to change the internal environment in small steps, little by little.
But where do you start?
Abandoning the constant search for perfection is the first step to take in order to enter the hygge perspective. Goodbye to perfectly ironed sheets, and we welcome imperfect but welcoming details.
Everything is based on making every moment of the day special, despite their simplicity.
So let's not just live each room for what it is, but for what it could potentially be.
An example ? If you love comfort and slow rhythms, start from the bedroom. By inserting cushions and layers of warm and soft blankets, you will feel much more at home and "pampered" from the early hours of the morning. How can we not call it a good morning?
But let's continue. According to this philosophy, everything that gives the idea of life has a positive impact on our mind. The living room, for example, usually rarely used, should be used to the maximum, not only on rare occasions. For this reason, Hygge recommends adorning it with natural elements, as simple as plants, which can give that sense of experience even in a room like this.
And what better time than conviviality, if not that relating to lunch or dinner? You know, food always puts everyone in agreement. But how can you make your dining room even more welcoming and hygge?
No sumptuous elements are needed. A few elements linked to the past and points of warm light, such as candles, are sufficient. Don't forget also the materiality of the objects. Hygge aims to make homes 'happy' because it exploits all five senses of the human being.
Including touch. A wooden table with natural and raised veins, used as a coffee corner or as a main table, a reading corner made up of cushions and a mini library made up of old books, with the classic scent of yellowed paper, will be valid help for well-being of the body but also of your home.
Let's not forget that everything must be based on your daily routine. The essential point of this philosophy of happiness is precisely this. Make the ordinary special.
So, take advantage of these little tricks, and make your home a happier place too!
