The increasingly watery sunlight, the chill in the air, the leaves falling from the trees and the lengthening shadows remind us that winter is approaching, and with it, the desire to retire within our own four walls, whether we feel protected and pampered.
The home is the setting that welcomes us in and takes care of us for much of our lives, so it’s important that our domestic settings are a happy place: not just a roof over our head, but a place where we can feel at ease, a place where every moment is unique and precious and in tune with our essence. This whole concept can be summed up in a four-letter word, cosy, which describes the welcoming sensation of comfort and well-being derived from spending our free time in pleasant, calm environments able to sooth tension and recharge our batteries.
