1. STYLE IN ANY CORNER

Cushions are a very versatile and practical decorative element. You can use them to add color and texture to seating, to create a reading or relaxation corner, or to add a touch of warmth and comfort. Cushions also allow you to change the style of your boat according to the season or occasion. A good idea is to use cushions in bright colors and nautical prints for summer, or cushions in neutral tones and soft fabrics for winter.

2. USEFUL YES, SOPHISTICATED TOO

There’s nothing like enjoying a good meal or an aperitif with elegant and sophisticated tableware. You can choose porcelain, glass, or metal tableware, depending on the type of food and the style you want to give to your table. Ideally, you should have a dinner set for every occasion: a more formal one for special dinners, a more informal one for family lunches, and a more fun one for parties with friends. And don't forget the accessories: cutlery, glasses, napkins and tablecloths. This way, you will create a distinguished and refined atmosphere.

3. AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE

From soft, relaxing music to create a tranquil environment on deck, to surround sound systems for entertainment in the living room, sound becomes a powerful tool to complement décor and create an immersive experience. Use speakers built into the boat, or portable speakers that you can take with you anywhere. Choose music that suits the moment and mood, whether relaxing, romantic or fun.

4. WITH CHARACTER AND HARMONY

A simple and original way to decorate the walls of your boat is to use paintings. You can choose some that reflect your tastes, hobbies or memories, such as landscapes, portraits, maps, or photographs. Paintings will help you to give your boat personality and character, as well as add an artistic touch while breaking the monotony.

5. LESS NOISE, MORE COMFORT

Although they may seem an unusual element on a boat, carpets play a significant role as a decorative and functional element. These pieces add warmth, style, and comfort to the interior spaces of the boat. They reduce noise and vibration, which contributes to a calmer and more relaxing environment on board. In addition, carpets can define and delimit specific areas, such as the saloon or lounge area, creating a sense of continuity and order in the small spaces of the boat.

6. A WELL-DRESSED BOAT

Curtains not only provide privacy, thermal protection, and light control, but they also add style and sophistication to your boat's interior design. Nautical curtains with marine-themed designs, and fresh and vibrant colors, are especially popular on boats as they complement the aesthetic and create a feeling of connection to the aquatic environment. You can choose curtains of different fabrics, transparencies, colors, and designs to adapt them to your needs and preferences.

7. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE WALLS

Decorating the walls of your boat with bold and expressive decorative elements such as murals is one of the hottest trends in boat decoration. They add an artistic and captivating dimension to interior spaces. You can choose murals depicting seascapes, coastal cities, aquatic animals, or any other theme that inspires you. They also add depth, breadth, and dynamism to your boat.

8. PUT YOUR PERSONAL STAMP ON IT

One way to make your boat unique and special is to personalize it with your own details. Put objects that have a special meaning for you, such as photos, souvenirs, books, or souvenirs. You can also put your name or initials somewhere visible or discreet on the boat. Another option is to have something custom-made, such as a piece of furniture, a cushion, or a rug. Whatever you choose, giving your boat a distinctive and exclusive touch is important.

9. THE KEY TO A SPECIAL DECORATION

Towels, beyond their practical function, can be charming decorative objects on boats. These versatile items not only serve their purpose of drying and comfort but can also add a touch of style and color to both the interior and exterior spaces of the boat. Placing towels of different sizes and colors on seats, loungers or deck railings can provide a fresh and attractive look. Additionally, towels can be used as temporary decorative items for special events, such as parties or outdoor dinners, where they can be displayed in creative ways and add a festive touch to the occasion.

10. SUBTLE BUT POWERFUL

A detail that can take your boat to another level is fragrances. They can create an enveloping and pleasant atmosphere on board. Discreet and elegant aroma diffusers, as well as scented candles, are great options for gently dispersing fragrances throughout the space. Aromas like sea breeze, refreshing citrus, or herbal notes can fill the air with a fresh, revitalizing feeling. These fragrances not only improve the boat's interior environment but can also help neutralize unwanted odors, especially in smaller, more enclosed spaces.
