GROWING UP
NORDIC

A young child wearing a chunky grey wool knit sweater sits quietly on a textured rug, facing away from the camera. They are looking out a large floor-to-ceiling window at a snowy Nordic forest during the blue twilight hours. A single warm lamp glows on the floor beside them, creating a cozy sanctuary against the cold.
