How Can Glass Help you Achieve A Hygge Home?

IQ's Heated Glass was used on the Paulton's Square project.

One of the latest trends within the home is Hygge. There is no definite definition for Hygge, although it is commonly described as ‘cosiness’ or ‘togetherness’. According to Emily Bird on amara.com ‘You can hygge with a good book curled up on a sofa or with friends around a fire or dinner table, even places can be hyggeligt (hygge-like).’

IQ Glass are able to help you create your very own Hygge home with IQ Heated Glass or PassivHaus windows. Heated glass is used to heat spaces, as well as stop condensation forming on the glass as well as stopping snow or ice build-up on the outside of the glass. Having this technical glass installed into your home will help you to achieve a living space that is hyggeligt as you will be able to create a cosy living space, especially perfect for the winter.
