Winter is the time to embrace one of today’s hottest lifestyle trends:hygge (pronounced hoo-ga). This Danish concept is all about mindfully embracing the simple things that make home so sweet.

Shop this room:

Rule #1: INCORPORATE MATERIALS

To truly embrace hygge, you’ll want to incorporate mid-century modern furnishings in low-key colours – in this case charcoal – and then add warm touches like a fireplace, shag rug and fluffy pillows. Check, check and check!

Rule #2: INVEST IN A VERSATILE SOFA

If holiday parties are a norm in your household, be sure to have a place for guests to unwind. Your home will be the hit of the holiday season. Plus, you don’t need to sacrifice style for function with this sleeper sectional.

Rule #3: A NESTING COFFEE TABLE IS GREAT FOR ENTERTAINING

Save space by storing the smaller table under the larger one, create a surface for appetizers by putting them side by side or use them separately for places to put guests’ drinks. All pros, no cons.

Rule #4: CREATE A NATURAL BREAK IN SPACE

Using armchairs to create separation is a great way to define spaces. Plus, they’re easy to move! Pull them aside and open up the space to bring your guests together after dinner.
