This exquisite cottage called “Hygge House” was designed by Swan Architecture, located in an urban setting of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Hygge, pronounced hoo-gah, means coziness in Danish. Hygge is also a mindset – it’s about relaxing and being kind to yourself – it’s about catering to what makes you happy.
The owner’s of this home wished to capture all of their goals into their dream cottage, including natural sunlight throughout the day. Warm and cozy textures like sheepskin rugs, wool carpeting, candles and glowing fires blanket the spaces. Baking, and photography and sewing are just a few of the passions the clients wanted to incorporate into the natural rhythm of the home.
