Wiking’s approach is both practical and heartfelt, sharing how small, thoughtful adjustments in our homes can enhance our well-being and happiness. The book provides actionable ideas for transforming any room, focusing on lighting, layout, and even the way we use our spaces to connect with loved ones.

Meik Wiking delivered yet again! Reading his works is a hyggeligt activity in itself - I loved the practical application and ideas for incorporating Hygge into the space and place we physically occupy. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants a cozy, inspiring read!

I just love books about how other cultures live. The pictures were unnecessary in this, but I loved the stuff about urban planning.

Lots of good tidbits and beautiful pictures. This book encouraged me to think a bit more critically about the things—from functional items to decor—I bring into my home. I was left wanting a bit more in terms of actual design advice, but I still got a lot from this book and am looking forward to doing more research on the concept of Hygge. It also gave me some really great ideas for utilizing our backyard/outdoor space in effective ways!

Very enjoyable read, popping across my path just as moving into a new apartment! Wiking is OBSESSED with Hygge, and makes the reader a little obsessed too lol. Community, great lighting, and comfort [foods]. Sprinkled with his sense of humor, sharing this book by reading it out loud with a loved one made for a truly Hygge experience.
