We’ve had Hygge, we’ve had Lykke, and now we have the sweedish term “Lagom”.

And what exactly does Lagom mean? Well, I feel it somehow intersects with the “Less is more” mantra, but this one goes for the right equilibrium between too little and too much: just the right amount.

I’m so eager to see more, I’ve made a selection of the best examples of lagom available!

The basics are:

• Let natural light in
• Bring nature into your home
• Give objects some space to breathe
• Go with light wall colors
• Declutter, declutter, declutter!
• Get rid of carpets and bring in some rugs
• Mix decor styles: vintage, contemporary, modern, rustic

If you’re ready to embrace the Lagom philosophy, here are a few tips to get you started:

• Be mindful of your consumption.
• Only buy what you need.
• Learn to say no.
• Take breaks.
• Appreciate the simple things.
• Connect with nature.
• Spend time with loved ones.
• Do things that make you happy.
