A Mood, A Thought, A Feeling - Young Huh

The first book from designer Huh is designed in three parts. Part one is an exploration of the seven moods that Huh deems essential to design: conviviality, peacefulness, joyful, cozy, verve, romantic, meaning. For example, convivial spaces are ones that feel buzzy, excited, and alive, like an artist s salon. Use lighting to draw people together and seating arrangements to connect. Peaceful interiors are refuges to be by yourself, with yourself, reading with a cup of tea on a rainy day, in a chair with a view of a forest, surrounded by warm, natural textures and quiet colors. Joyful rooms are effervescent and whimsical, with bright happy colors and wallpaper that makes you smile. Coziness is about creating safety and warmth, spaces that hold you tight and together, that encourage intimacy and depth and demarcate a transition from public to private. Rooms with verve are stylist and confident. They should feature daring, exciting choices to make people talk with a bold curation of objects and odd juxtapositions. Romantic is moody, nostalgic, filled with faded chintz, pretty vignettes, weathered and worn. Meaning is about incorporating the personal, the familial. Objects that carry stories are important here the heirlooms that tell us where we came from and who we are. Lovely curated bookcases and ephemera.
