The Navy style is a decorative segment that has always had many followers, mainly in coastal cities and towns around the world, for the simple fact that it is focused on everything related to navigation and the sea. Let’s see some marine decoration ideas.

Even if you don’t live near the beach, you can give your home or apartment a nautical or beachy vibe with just a few decorating tweaks.

Take a look at the ideas that we will show you below.

Nautical stripes

Blue and white stripes are a marine decoration idea that provides a lot of freshness. They can be applied on the walls, sofa, bed, carpet or cushions. Add a beachy striped throw to your bed or sofa. The curtains can also be blue and white striped, as well as the bedding.

It should be noted that what defines the nautical style are the white and blue stripes horizontally, although they can also be applied vertically, since there is no reason to follow the traditions to the letter. These can be introduced through the paint on the walls, bedding or curtains.

Wicker, rattan or sisal

Materials like wicker, rattan and sisal give the room a coastal living feel. These materials are rope-like and add texture to the space, perfect for the nautical-style effect you’re going for.

Wicker chairs and sisal rugs are lightweight, inexpensive, and durable. They can help you create a modern coastal space.

Blue

Blue is the color of maritime decoration par excellence. Seafoam, light blue, navy blue, and turquoise are just a few of the shades you can wear. But for a modern look, try the shade of indigo. It is similar to navy blue, but slightly richer and more saturated. The color works great with wood tones, whites and blacks.

The light blue color in various shades is repeated in armchairs, rugs and cushions.

Other colors

There are many trends that accompany this style, although the issue of colors is something very simple to solve. White with blue is the most typical combination. But you can also introduce beige, a lot of furniture in brown wood or wicker, and in some cases, red can come into play, although very discreetly.

Furniture covers

Bleached woods

Whitewashing wood means adding a white translucent paint. It is different from traditional paint because it is more transparent and looks more natural. Adds the light and shine effect of a beach house to the room.

Two tone walls

You can paint the walls in two contrasting colors. Or wallpaper the top half and paint the bottom half. Or you can add wood plank panels to the bottom half of the wall.

The easiest way to add two colors to your walls is to paint them. When painting, use painter’s tape to create a sharp, crisp line.

Woods and objects found on the coast

Recycle found objects, such as driftwood or bamboo, by using them as wall art or the base of a coffee table.

Decoration accessories

The decorations focus on the sea: decorative miniature boats, pictures with sailor knots, photos or paintings of beaches or the sea, snails, sea shells, small anchors, lifebuoys, and even lamps that emulate coastal lighthouses.

The ingenuity is very wide and new things are included every day, oars hung as racks, fishing nets used to guide the vines, among other things. Generally, old-style maps are usually seen, hanging on the walls and even framed, marking shipwrecks and decorated with the classic sea gods that used to be seen on the maps of yesteryear.

A replica of coral and various decorative objects in blue and white can be an excellent option.
