Traveling the world is one thing, but collecting tangible memories is another. You can capture your personality as a travel enthusiast through your home's decor using souvenirs you've collected or available travel-inspired accessories. There are numerous ways to incorporate travel-themed decor pieces, whether you’ve traveled the world or not. Below are some amazing travel-inspired home decor design ideas that you can consider in 2024;
Sailing ship sculpture
Traveling the world by sea may not be very popular today but any travel fanatic can understand the thrill behind a sailing ship. The thought of ships sailing through strong currents sparks excitement and their rich historical significance will fill your home with sentimental value. If you are onboard with the idea of traveling by ship, you may consider getting a sailing ship sculpture for your home. It could be a small desk sculpture or a large masterpiece for the foyer.
Compass wall clock
Exploring the world starts with direction - knowing where you want to go and why. There’s no better way to capture the importance of direction than through a vintage compass wall clock. This wall décor is a constant reminder that there are more paths to explore through travel and time is ticking.
Currency art
Change in currency is one of those things you first encounter every time you land in a new country. Different currencies represent different economies and cultures. You can show off your travel adventures across the world by bringing different currencies back home and turning them into art.
You could either frame and hang them on a wall or keep a coin jar for different currencies. Another way to make use of currency décor (especially coins) entails gluing them to a lampshade. Ensure you cover the entire lampshade with coins to give it a sparkly appearance. Such an artistic lampshade would be well suited for dining room lighting where it sparks a romantic ballroom mood, perfect for special dinners.
Flag throw pillows
One thing that stands out in flags is their varied use of colors in a way that captures a country’s most essential values or historical significance. Whether you relate to the sentimental value of flags or you just love colors, flags can make outstanding throw pillows. Having throw pillows made from flags in your living room seats helps you communicate your love for the world.

Maps
Thanks to Google maps, we don’t need physical maps anymore, which means maps are officially vintage tools. There are so many ways to decorate your home with maps. From wooden wall art mimicking maps to tabletops depicting different locations and map-inspired bedding. Luckily, maps representing different countries, continents, and even states can be found on the internet. Therefore, if you want to customize your map décor, all you need to do is download and take the image to your artisan or carpenter.
Travel destinations wall gallery
If you’ve been to different travel destinations, you know the importance of pictures. Today, people (especially celebrities) will go out of their way to prove to the world that they’re well-traveled. It is not strange for a travel enthusiast to hire camera crews just to capture their wonderful moments in different countries. You could also capture your moments and turn them into wall décor by maintaining a wall gallery of framed images showcasing your travels in different parts of the country, continent, or the world.
