The answer is called hygge. Pronounced "hoo-gah," this Danish expression is an attitude towards life that emphasizes finding joy in everyday moments. Brian Patrick Flynn is an American interior designer who knows the lifestyle well (he truly lives the Nordic lifestyle each summer at his own pied-à-terre in Reykjavík), and he's co-hosting a cocktail party and presenting tips on incorporating this lifestyle into your design projects and stores. Much like the spaces Brian’s known for—unexpected, warm and extremely personal—guests can enjoy an afternoon at Accent Decor complete with soothing cocktails and moments that celebrate coziness, warmth and mindfulness.
