Hello, I am Annie and this is my Hygge & Cwtch blog created in Wales and inspired by the Danish hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) way of life. I believe a lot of goodness flows from choosing to live in the moment and take things simple and slow. We all need a bit of time and space to relax, take comfort and enjoy the good things in life with good people. I believe connecting with nature's beauty and nurturing power and indulging in moments of everyday joy is a true tonic.

Our recently completed interior design project in the Llanishen area of Cardiff, Wales, is what we’d describe as core Hygge & Cwtch. Aesthetically it’s got our hallmark Scandi, luxe, timeless feel. But more than that, it’s a considered approach to design. Taking a deeper dive into what will actually best serve these homeowners and how […]
