A peek inside ABC Carpet & Home in NY

January 10, 2009

This is one of my favorite Stores in the world. Feast your eyes on the wonders of a magical place…
I am going to show photos of ABC Carpet & Home from kids, accessories, bedding, and more within the next few weeks.
The themes of nature, conservation and sustainability were constant on all floors of the store. Mingled with tribal & nomadic, whimsy & elegance, with strong emphasis on textures, soft & bold colors- but nature and sustainability were the strongest themes throughout.

First, a look at some of the kids rooms: Imagine living in a magical forest
where your bed is surrounded by sweet and furry woodland creatures,
where the line between nature and fantasy are blurred.
 

Or perhaps , your room is in an ice castle with icy pinks and blues where
sliver and crystals are mixed with polar bears and ice creatures.

You might even have a fantasy bedroom with mystical unicorns, faeries or exotic peacocks and birds. You could even have a tribal African inspired bedroom with wild animals and African textiles. For a little humor, there could be some silly colorful creatures, but I get ahead of myself. it was all there, although, I wish it had been less of a merchandising mess here and there, but the themes were wonderful with so much to choose from… more photos to come within the next week… enjoy!

Can I just say that I love the fact that on a post which includes thngis like work out tips and fave healthy snacks, the "You might also like" section directly underneath includes Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies and Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes..which is a tad ironic because I just showed these very cupcakes to a friend today. She wasn't amused. Hmm. Maybe it was because she needed a recipe for church. And kids.

Although I haven't been in ABC in years, I've always loved the "discovery" aspect of the store. The layout, the wandering around finding a surprise here and there. These are great shots of the kids' area and some pretty fun display ideas that any one could use.

Dear Bridget Kelly, So happy and impressed that you are interested in emphasis on "green" living.It will leave the children with the thought of doing the "right thing" from the very beginning. Smart move! I love ABC too, glad we are on the same page. Love all the creatures, they work so well with all your other themes... See you soon on the web...
