The Hygge Edit: Best of Scandi design for your home

Hygge means consciously making your home beautiful and cosy – with clean lines, natural materials and warm accents. Especially in autumn, the Scandi look brings calm, Nordic serenity and cosiness without compromising on style. Stine Juelner – Westwing’s hygge expert with Danish roots – reveals how you can transform your home into a hyggelig oasis of well-being with just a few key pieces.

‘Simple, clean lines are typical of the Scandi look. It’s better to choose a few special pieces of furniture – such as a light-wood coffee table or a lounge chair. They give your room structure, warmth and that typical Nordic serenity, and create inviting spaces where design meets comfort.’

‘Let your rooms breathe. Instead of scattering lots of small accessories around, focus on a single statement piece – for example, a large glass vase or a bowl made from natural marble. This brings calm to the interior while also giving your home a modern twist.’

‘Cushions, blankets and rugs are a must! Combine different materials such as cotton, bouclé and velvet. The mix of textures brings the room to life and instantly creates that hyggelig, cosy sense of comfort.’
