About Us

We make furniture for calm, human spaces.

Hygge is a modern furniture studio devoted to warmth, simplicity, and everyday durability. We blend Scandinavian restraint with quietly joyful details, crafting pieces that invite you to pause and feel at home.

Our Story

We started Hygge in a small workshop with a big belief: your furniture should help you breathe easier. Instead of chasing trends, we sketch slow forms, prototype with our hands, and obsess over touch, comfort, and proportion.

Every collection begins with a simple question — “how does it feel to live with this?” — and ends with a piece that ages gracefully, repairs beautifully, and settles softly into your life.

Workshop opens — two designers, one lathe, endless tea.
First collection — Oak & Wool: our signature materials.
Repair program launches — spare parts & finish kits by post.

Our Values

Simplicity with Warmth

Minimal lines softened by tactile edges and natural textures. Calm, not cold.

Made to Last

Solid joinery, durable finishes, and materials that grow more beautiful with use.

Kind to the Planet

Responsible sourcing, repair programs, and circular thinking baked into every design.

Craft & Materials

We work with FSC-certified timbers, European wools, and low-VOC finishes. Our joinery favors mechanical strength over adhesives, and we finish by hand to preserve the natural character of the grain.

  • White oak, ash, and walnut from responsibly managed forests
  • Wool-blend upholstery woven in small European mills
  • Plant-based oils and waxes for breathable, repairable finishes
  • Powder-coated steel components with modular hardware

Meet the Team

We’re a small group of designers, joiners, and service specialists who care about how things feel in the hand and in the home. No egos — just curiosity, craft, and a shared love of slow mornings.
