Dreamy Decor Stores

Giddy for gilt furny or bonkers for oriental objets d’art? Deep breath, and stampede to these stagger-fab stores stocking the décor of your dreams.

ABC Carpet, New York

You’ll need a full day to plough through this century-old, six-storey mini city, where interior mavens, stylists and the A-listers who employ them flock for beautiful homeware and decoratives. Aside from an enviable stash of antique and designer rugs, you’ll find plenty of retro and contempo nest-feathering accoutrement spanning vintage Indian woods to cosmo mood lamps, as well as seasonal art installations from some of the world’s top design houses.

Feeling pecky? A quick re-fuel in the basement-level ABC Kitchen will have you pepped and prepped to continue your retail assault at their outlet store in The Bronx, and beyond.

Gustavo Olivieri, Miami

Architect-turned-designer Gustavo’s got more Mid-Century cred than Monroe, and you can get up close with all his goodies in his massive Miami warehouse.

Fancy blowing that bonus on a pair of grey lacquered goatskin bar stools? This is the place for you. If he doesn’t have it, you don’t need it.
