Human beings, as a collective, have been spending a lot more time indoors. Some of us have welcomed this with open arms, seeing this as an opportunity to take a step back and reflect. While others, not so much. I understand, though. There’s something about being in the same space day in and day out that feels kind of claustrophobic. There are ways to open up and cleanse the space that you live in. Make it a point to regularly sweep, dust, and mop. Clear out any clutter scattered around. Pop open a window or two to let some fresh air in. Perhaps, it’s time for a change of scenery? Why not try your hand at repainting your living space? We have some lovely, perfectly hygge hues for you to choose from.
Let’s create a comfortable, cozy, and safe space with these Scandinavian-inspired colors!
Bonfire
Create a cozy home atmosphere by painting your walls with honeyed, golden sunshine in a can of paint. This hue is perfect to add a bit of energy to your space if you’re struggling to get out of bed in the morning. We’ve tempered this zesty hue by choosing a deeper, more subdued shade of yellow.
Twinflower
Transform your home into a sanctuary with the gentle pink hue of Twinflower. The color pink, especially in muted, pastel shades, have been shown to reduce stress and aggression. We’re all under a lot of anxiety and stress right now, choose this hue to calm down and unwind.
Living Daylight
You can’t go wrong with a calming shade of sage. Reconnect with nature by painting this earthy green hue on your walls. The paint color Living Daylight captures the essence of this hue, reminiscent of dried sage leaves. Surround yourself with indoor plants to maximize this cleansing energy.
Gone Ice Fishing
Have you been having a hard time falling asleep? Being indoors most of the time has really messed with our circadian rhythm. Lull yourself back to that much-coveted deep, deep sleep with this restful bluish green hue, Gone Ice Fishing.
