Navy blue
Navy blue is a really dark shade, which gives elegance and depth for the space. It can be used instead of black if it would be too rigid or sombre. It got its name from the color of clothes worn by officers in the Royal Navy since 1748 and adopted by other navies around the world. It looks best paired with white.

Macramé
Macramé is a kind of textile made by knotting technique, by hand. The different types of knots give the final pattern. It has Arabic roots, reached Spain through the Moors and spread in Europe in the 14th century. It was really popular in the 1960-70s. Recently, it appeared again in interior design. For example, macramé curtains are good alternatives to the mass-produced string-curtains.
