How to use "acogedor" & "acogedora"

Question

Does this word for cozy just follow the regular masculine feminine rules for describing? And how do I use it as a noun?

cama acogedora?

lugar acogedor?

Like that?

Answer 1

Your examples and your explanation are all correct, but this word is an adjective, not a noun. The only way you can use an adjective as a noun is by using articles:

lo acogedor = the welcoming / cosy / warm (thing)

Answer 2

"La cama acogedora" means "the cozy bed," and "el lugar acogedor" means "the welcoming place." It does follow the regular rules, and as in the other answer, there are only a select few occasions on which it may be used as a noun. For example, "Esta cama es más dura con mi cuerpo que el acogedor," meaning "This bed is harder on my body than the comfortable one."
