It's become a trend that peaked in the mid-2010's, and nowadays, hygge seems to be a buzzword in interiors. Defined as 'a quality of coziness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture),' hygge has all the ideal qualities for living. After all, it is a concept born in Denmark, considered 'The World's Happiest Country.'


If you've ever wondered why hygge caught on globally, look no further than Danish interiors, especially their inviting lighting. Characterized by nothing more than a warm glow, sources of light illuminate pockets of calm in personal spaces, a must for Denmark, a country that experiences 17 hours of night time.


Here's some great news for Filipino fans of hygge who also happen to have impeccable design taste: lights are on at Louis Poulsen Manila as the premier Danish lighting manufacturer celebratesits formal launch with a special Scandinavian pop-up cafe last September 1 at the 28th Floor ofthe Twenty-Four Seven McKinley Building, BGC.



A Legacy of Light


Founded in 1874, Louis Poulsen was born out of the Scandinavian design tradition where formfollows function. Its iconic lighting fixtures are a result of a series of close collaborations withworld-renowned designers such as Poul Henningsen, Verner Panton, Øivind Slaatto, ArneJacobsen, and Vilhelm Lauritzen to name a few.
