You're absolutely right about Scandinavia design. It's the best in the world! Keep talking about it.

[@pamelapeterson2987]

"Hygge" for me is having a cup of coffee while watching one of your videos

[@HouseofValentina]

You are going to make me cry! I love that so much!! 🖤🖤🖤

[@ibislife]

When you enter a Scandinavian home, you are met by a chaos of shoes in the hallway.. We always take off our shoes before entering the home! 😂Hygge is making your home warm and cozy, especially in the wintertime! In the summer - we want to be outside, enjoying the "friluftsliv". 💕 We grow up with hygge, it can be memories of your mother lighting the candles at night, makin hot cocoa when the snowstorm is howling outside. We feel safe and embraced inside. We do white to let the early spring light dance on the floor and the ceiling, as we go months of the year without much daylight.

[@mustlovedogs4005]

I’ve tried many times to get myself and my family to take off shoes when we enter. I love the idea however it is such a tough transition unless of course I’ve taken my dogs for a walk in the muddy woods.

[@ibislife]

@@mustlovedogs4005 I have trained my dogs to understand - "go to the bathroom". They sit and wait outside of the shower, for me to open it! 😂I do have a small cordless vacuumcleaner as well, to remove sand. No one enters beyond the hallway with shoes on their feet.

[@amandalwayman4046]

I should have been born in Scandinavia because I feel so at peace with that style. With regard to infusing life into your home, I feel like we miss that so often in the US. Seems we struggle with life filled but not messy. I think seeing prefect homes and rooms on social media sometimes contributes to our inability to find a happy medium.

[@HouseofValentina]

I 💯 agree. Real life isn’t perfect and trying to be perfect at home can really rob people of their joy in their homes, I hope we can be a beacon of the perfectly imperfect!

I love the tranquil calmness of Scandinavian style. I really am drawn to bright and light, natural light filled spaces.

[@tinagibb3841]

Thank you so much for this! Our children have all reached school age, we've just extended our house to give them all their own rooms, and I've been struggling with how to style my home for this new stage of our lives. The idea of how I want to live my life in the space and "finding beautiful in the practical, and using beautiful practical pieces to decorate with really spoke to me. I love collecting items especially when we travel, but also hate clutter. These Scandinavian videos have completely changed the way I am going to decorate and buy moments from our travels.

[@cc3mathews]

I can appreciate the hygge and wabi-sabi concepts paired with diffused cloudy, romantic days on tropical coast vibes. I also pairing vintage, natural and DIY handmade decor.

[@carolefox6553]

I hope you don't get tired of hearing, "I love this video!" Because once again... I love the video! The pictures you chose are gorgeous and your Secrets are great. This thought came to me while watching you today... The closer we are to nature and the more we reflect it, the more beautiful we are. And, the reverse is also true. A 'perfect' environment is artificial, not congruent with the human spirit, and doesn't reflect us well. A couple things I try to keep in mind, when choosing decor (and clothing) are: 1) How do I FEEL in it? 2) How do I LOOK in it? And, adding a TWIST is key for me in all aspects of life. Thank you, Valentina!

[@HouseofValentina]

I will never tire of those words! Thank you so much!! And I love that about reflecting beauty. So, so lovely!

What a magical and entrancing video. Understand the light. We lived in a cottage with tiny windows and I spent so many hours feeling low, but now we have light all day and the joy it brings is amazing.

[@isobel5175]

As a scandinavian I just loved listening to this. Haha the whole light thing is so true, I feel like my bf who isnt scandinavian thinks im crazy for caring so much about windows. Its the first thing that I look at, and if the windows are small or just very boring it just ruins the entire space for me. Never thought about it being related to many months of darkness, but it probably is why haha..

[@susanp2349]

I was so victorian in my home decor.... after subscribing to your channel for the last 2 years, you have totally made me fall in love with scandi design and I've been slovvly re-decorating.. I'm loving the black and white... sprray painting has kept me busy during covid restrictions. I was a busy beaver!!!!!

[@HouseofValentina]

Oh how fun!! Staying busy at home really makes the time fly by!

[@b.alexandria4874]

Great video. I love a moody room so much but I also love a crisp, white room with beautiful moldings and historical. Jenny Mustard just did a video about life lessons being Swedish. She was saying that ever since you are born in Sweden it’s engrained in you for balance. She said it’s called lagom. I think that’s why the stylist would drop the shoe or mess up the pillows ...balance not too perfect because life can’t be-there is a balance between beauty and daily life happening. When i actually think about it-that’s a beautiful way to live, in my opinion. It’s so eye-opening to me, not being raised this way, in America. You should watch her video it’s lovely.

My home is extremely Scandinavian inspired but I actually wasn't aware of all of these philosophies - and yet I incorporate basically all of them. I suppose it makes sense why I've always been so attracted to Scandinavian design.

As much sun + light as possible, I believe it enhances your home + your day

I'm Kazakh from Kazakhstan living in Italy, i've leaved in 4 countries, grown up in Mongolia in apartment kind of Scandinavian style white walls but with mom's handmade wall arts, paintings, photos, right amount of decorations, handmade terracotta& ceramic Kazakh traditional dishes, windows was full of flowers my mom loved them, even couldn't see outside, we had long 5 months winter with - 40 outside, in Italy tradition is to have colourful walls and a lot of decoration on walls& surfaces, maximalists to me too much, closed shutters in summer houses too dark inside, in England apartments too small with low ceilings its the worst but i like English cottage style. My house is eclectic style with personality both of us.

[@nancyvenhola8387]

My mother-in-law is German and nannied in Switzerland for a while. Her home, here in the states, is very much like this. In my 20s I thought it lacked pizzaz and interest however now that I have raised children and so appreciate the simple things in life my tastes have transitioned to this style.

[@erlandatugaw8883]

I love lotsa natural light during the daytime, moody lighting in the evening, so that is how I have chosen lighting for our home. I like for each room to tell its own story, starting from the moment you approach the door leading into our home. We use a black and white theme in every room, and incorporate color with decor. I use one, similar color, in every room, to "tie/ connect" all the rooms. In Spring it may be the color green through the use of plants and green glass; in Fall, it may be the use of terra cotta/soft, brown leather...I LOVE your vlogs! They are seasoned, non-judgmental, and FUN! Keep 'em coming, PLEASE. 🖤🤍🖤🤍🤎💚 #THEValentinaFussell

I've tried to incorporate this whole esthetic into my home - I find it interesting about the 'mess' though. I was just watching another Scandi channel and she really IS Scandi and she has nuthin' on the kitchen counters and it was a moment of where I was like 'wait - is this Scandi or Minimalism?' I think sometimes the two get confused. You always have the BEST Inspo photos - I literally stopped in the middle of the video to move some stuff around. I live in a pretty dark place actually, and white walls were so bad in here - omg - it was horrid - but what did work to get the Scandi vibe was the lightest lightest ice grey - completely changed the vibe. :) xoxo as always.

My home is on a lake with floor to ceiling windows all around it, and 90 percent of the time it’s sunny and extremely bright, which we build ourselves. Beautiful home. But Sooo much light. I find myself craving overcast and rainy days. I paint the entire house over with dark colors in almost every room including the ceiling. I love a moody interior. By the way. Thank you 🙏🏾 for making me feel that I’m not crazy and alone for painting my trim and ceiling the same color as my wall. I did it year’s ago and my painters were horrified, I didn’t care.

I just love to hear you talk about scandinavian design (and design in general)! You really have such an interesting and inspiring view on the mix of different interior styles since you lived in different countries. Perhaps since I have lived all my life in Scandinavia I don´t really understand the uniqe way we design our homes, but after watching several of your videos on this topic I´m starting to really appreciate it! Also thank you for all the beautiful photos in the video from Scandinavia, Denmark, Sweden and also Gothenburg where I live! I have followed Alvhem Mäkleri several years now, where some of the photos where from, and they really show the most beautiful views and appartments from my hometown! Hugs from Sweden

After 40 years of marriage, I was really wanting to return to my Scandi "roots" and I'm so glad we did!

[@lindacgrace2973]

Of necessity, I choose saturated color. I am building my retirement home in Arizona. There is a REASON that Southwest (and BTW traditional southern Italian and Greek) decor favours rich color with stark white plaster walls and high-contrast blue-and-white tiles. They. are cooling and with reflection soften the glare of the sun. Our challenge in home design and landscaping is to soften the harsh light. I plan to do everything in my power to mitigate the rays of the brutal day star, including traditional Saltillo tiles, deep eaves (painted 'paint blue on the underside), very thick walls, and high ceilings. It works!

Hygge to me is making pancakes outdoors on a fire, playing music and watching the sun go down. Alone, with friends or family playing cards or boardgames or reading a book sitting/lying on pillows on the floor and curled up on the sofa around the sofa table drinking tea, coffee, hot cocoa or wine. Hygge is freeing oneself from time, obligations, worries and stress, creating a gentle "imperfectly perfect" moment/space for mindfulness, playfulness, love and laughter with everyone (who wants one😉) wrapped in blankets, candles and/or fireplace lit, or lightning set on "cosy glow". Hygge is a mindset and feeling more than anything. "Hygge time" (hygge tid) is (re)creating for oneself or with others the feeling of safety, surrender, warmth, trust, joy and relaxation you get when hugging or snuggling with someone you love and loves you unconditionally🤗 Greetings from Copenhagen, Denmark🇩🇰

[@kbtz6721]

Its honestly super cool to hear your take on Scandinavian design tied with having actually lived there, and picking up on things and tying the visible design with the culture. Like even breaking down the actual meaning of Hygge And I really like that quote, "A beautiful home is centered around the life you're living inside of it." And yes! The historical mixed with the modern. Design juxtaposition is like my favorite thing ever.

[@elisabethvismans]

Love danish design, followed by Italian design. I’m Dutch, living in the US, and in the Netherlands we have hygge too. It’s called gezellig. In Germany it’s gemütlich. You can’t describe it with words. Try to paint it. Hygge or gezelligheid has to do with the lack of light and the climate. Color is light. You can’t see color without light. So color is seen differently depending on the light that is present. Paint a painting outdoors in the dark and look at it the next morning. It’s a fun exercise. Look at the early paintings of Vincent van Gogh that he made in the Netherlands you’ll notice how dark they are, brown, gray, yellow ochre. Compare those to the ones he painted in the south of France. They’re bright and sunny. There is not much bright light in Northern Europe. A painting should also best be seen under the same light conditions as they were painted in.

[@designorganize2608]

Beautifully said! I'm not a fan of the Scandinavian design style, but their design premises are universal: light, life, coziness....all huggable and happy feelings in our spaces. I TOTALLY understand your need for light, lots of windows and views to the outside. I lived in Anchorage Alaska for 20 years and suffered the darkness also. My walls are white and I adore floor to ceiling windows now!

I agree with the previous comment. I found Scandi this year and am obsessed now. Question: light pine floors, greyish white walls, limestone rock fireplace (beiges, taupes) I have black accents in the room. I want to do a leather sectional.....started out thinking dark dark brown, and now thinking a little more subtle, softer brown and a lot less contrast than dark brown. ( I do NOT like the rust chairs and sofas that I see a lot in Scandi pictures. ps. just found you recently on youtube and really enjoy your ideas and suggestions

I am recommending taupe and light camel leather to many of my clients these days. It’s lighter and airier and yet you get all the benefits of leather 🖤🖤
