The Hyg footstool, with its voluminous silhouette and soft, curvy lines, exudes warmth and comfort. The inspiration behind the cozy Hyg collection is the word hygge, and in the spirit of perhaps the most well-known word in the Danish language, designer Simon Legald wanted to create a place for relaxation with a sense of security, be it in your own living room, a public library or a busy hotel lobby. The Hyg footstool can be combined with the Hyg lounge chair to create a nest for ultimate relaxation, and on its own it functions as a low seating option.
