i was reading from your link and ...



Many different Danish traditions are influenced by hygge.[4] For instance, in winter months Danes often make home-cooked food, such as cakes or meatballs, from scratch.[11] Additionally, hygge inspires Danish interior design throughout the year.[11] Since pie, yuletide, sweaters, hot cocoa and soup are Yuletide traditions, autumn and winter may seem to be the sole seasons of hygge. However, moments of hygge happen throughout the year, including in summer. Examples of hot-weather outdoor activities considered hygge include picnics, barbecues, concerts, street fairs and cycling.[12] In Lindsey Robert's article "6 Ways to get that Hygge feeling, even in the Summer Swelter", she suggests giving furniture a second life, adding plants indoors, cleaning one's space, alternating textile, picking statement pieces, and designing outdoor areas.[11]



i don't know what i could try to get that cozy feel good feeling in the summer. i like the autumn & winter.
