Wrapped in Hygge: Spaces That Promote Calmness and Well-being

Editor’s note: Hygge— pronounced hyoo·guh— is a Danish and Norwegian word that describes a cozy mood evoked by comfort and conviviality. This compilation was inspired by our Dutch editor-in-chief, Marjolijn Bijlefeld, who would say that this feature is so “gezellig.”

Explore cozy, welcoming spaces where eye care meets comfort.

Danielle Gordon, OD, designed Sphere Optometry in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, to  “promote calmness and create a smoother and more comfortable patient experience.”
