This is the preset to use if you want to feature real estate interiors in print or on social media like Instagram. This filter particularly matches the Hygge design aesthetic, but it is versatile enough for indoor spaces with diffused lighting. The result that you will get will always be tender and inviting.

Creates a Cozy and Inviting Atmosphere

Serene Homes. Hygge (pronounced “hoo-gah”) decor gives emphasis to creating simple, comfortable, and restful spaces. Oxford English Dictionary defines Hygge as “to cherish oneself; to keep or make oneself snug”. This Danish lifestyle concept has influenced culture and even design.

This is the philosophy that the preset follows. It, therefore, creates a tender atmosphere by creating a distinct color motif. It slightly warms images then adds cool blue tones in highlights and shadows. You can spot the effect most on mostly white interiors.

In the above example, notice how all elements look tranquil and snug. Nothing appears harsh. It is a look that will make you want to cozy up under the covers or sink into a couch with a book. What makes this preset even more special are its blue hues; warm real estate presets are more common.

Illuminates Spaces and Moderates Hues

Lightens. Hygge Interior preset amplifies exposure to give the image more light. You can use it as a preset that would brighten interiors easily. After all, gently illuminated spaces are welcoming.

It also decreases contrast to subdue the intensity of some hues. This adjustment is vital to producing the overall calm and cool feel. Simply, all the preset’s enhancements are meant to create a very chill vibe.

Softens Tones for a Tranquil Look

Delicate Tones. This is the best soft preset that you can use in real estate photos. Hygge Interior moderates tones especially for this purpose. It mutes dark areas and highlights. These improvements are also more finely applied in the tone curve.

You can examine the results in the above photo. The flower looks even more delicate. No shadows are too harsh, no highlights overblown.

Brightens and Retains Depth

Vibrant. Even with a washed-out look, Hygge Interior retains depth. This is in consideration of the decor’s importance in interiors. To produce the effect, the preset crispens midtones by increasing clarity. It also amplifies vibrance for better illumination and richer tones. This is a quality that it shares with most urban street presets.

As you may expect, it decreases saturation, too — but except for red, orange, and green hues. These are, after all, the usual color accents in such a design philosophy. You may find these in house plants, wooden furniture, candles, and some linens.
