ABC Carpet & Home. Where Amazing Happens!

ABC Carpet & Home is a mega chic, home furnishings emporium located on Broadway in New York City. It's the largest rug and carpet store in the world, attracting 1 million visitors a year.

The company's array of products include not only carpets and rugs but also antiques, furniture, textiles, gifts and accessories, and bed and bath items. Because of its inventive displays and eclectic offerings, ABC has been called "Disneyland for rich adults." Visiting ABC is like sifting through a sea of charming, impeccable, eclectic furnishings. It's one part flea market, one part grandmother's attic, and one part Rodeo Drive.


You'll probably end up shopping and getting lost for hours. If you need a little halftime break, there is a cafe that sits at the back of the main floor. The menu consists of great organic food. I definitely recommend the hummus.

I usually end up visiting New York at least twice a year, and I always make it a point to visit. Here are some pictures I've collected of this amazing store. Feast your eyes on some home decor bliss.


How cool is that? Flowers covering the elevator on the first floor.


Looks like professional photography from Metropolitan Home. Not! It's just our Canon camera.


Store merchandising is always easier when you have a cool, old building with 25 foot high ceilings.


Love the chaise.



This is their Barbara Barry gallery on the 4th floor.


Yes, that is our Hugo sofa. I'm partial to our piece in white.


Towels! More Towels!

Cool, spontaneous vignette on a green platform.


Here is one of many eco-friendly furniture lines they carry. The sectional is from Cisco Brothers.



I can't afford most of the chandeliers, but I have to admit that they are pretty jaw dropping.



Some of their Asian-influenced pillows and accessories on the 1st floor.

    The flowers all round the elevator and the chandeliers do make for a pretty sight.
