How to Decorate a Navy Blue Sofa

A navy blue sofa will add a crisp, sophisticated look to your living room. Navy blue, much like black, complements a variety of neutral hues, such as white, taupe and cream. You can also mix navy with brighter colors, such as yellow, red and coral, depending on the look you are going for and the living room decor theme. A navy blue couch is also versatile in that it mixes well with both dark and light wood furniture.

Things You'll Need

  • Decorative throw pillows and blanket
  • Side table
  • Vase with fresh flowers
  • Nautical-inspired artwork in a rough-hewn wood frame


Consider the overall theme of the living room when decorating a navy blue sofa. Enhance a casual nautical-inspired space with crisp, red and white touches. Decorate a sophisticated room with neutral hues and classy fabrics and textures.

Decorate the couch with throw pillows. Place one large pillow in each corner to anchor the sofa, or line several small or medium pillows up along the back of it. Choose all-white or navy- and white-striped pillows for a classic look. Pick red pillows featuring lobster or crab patterns and rope details around the edges to create a nautical style.


Place a throw blanket over the back of the sofa to add warmth and visual interest. Choose a white, cream or taupe-colored cashmere blanket to continue an elegant, refined look. Pick an all-red or maritime-inspired woven cotton blanket as a casual, themed touch.

Accent the sofa with furniture and wall decor. Place a handy side table in either dark or light wood at one end of the sofa. Decorate the table with a navy blue vase filled with fresh white and red roses or other types of blooms. Hang a piece of artwork featuring a nautical ship scene in a rough-hewn wood frame above the sofa as a room focal point.
