Quote
At a time of global instability we have become distanced from each other and the environment. We have lost the immediacy, comfort and truthfulness of the literal and actual, and need to find alternative ways to consume and connect. Hygge describes a way of being that introduces humanity and warmth in our homes, schools, workplaces, cities and nations.

Hygge is a practice related to how we create and preserve meaning in the places we inhabit, how we make homes that comfort us and bring us together. ...then we begin to really inhabit a place or a moment in time and open ourselves to what it has to give.
