Boat and yacht design: homes at sea

When summer is approaching and many people need long weekends and bridges to enjoy the sea and sail on the water, decorating a boat inside is no easy task, given its many conditions and (generally) limited space, although there are yachts that take up (and cost) more than an apartment in the most fancy house.

Thus, the construction of the ship design company in Europe a number of obstacles that must be overcome. For starters, you have to live with a companion that will always be with you: humidity. Consequently, both the materials and the furniture or fabrics used must be water repellent and resistant to water and salt.

At the same time they should be easy to clean (on a boat you can't know if you'll get sandy or drop bread crumbs). Therefore, it is obvious that elements such as carpets or delicate fabrics may not be appropriate.

On the other hand, the limited space of (sometimes) some rooms forces you to always think functionally, to include everything you need without being overly overwhelming. Kitchens integrated into the living room, cabins with bunk beds, or living areas with solid benches are some of the common choices in this type of design.

The lack of light inside the boat also conditions the design. In this sense, it is advisable to use light colors and treated wood, not too dark, so as not to overwhelm the environment. At the same time you should try to achieve a light environment, so you tend to use solid colors and avoid prints and stripes.

Another important issue

The deck serves both for sunbathing as well as enjoying the sea while cruising or for dining or dining al fresco, so ideally you might consider some lounge chairs with umbrellas for relaxing, an outdoor table with chairs (if there is room) and/or seating to enjoy the sea.

In short, there are plenty of boat and yacht design options that will make anyone who walks the earth think.
