About Textura Rugs

About the Store

Carlos Palma opened Textura in June of 2019 with the goal of offering a curated rug selection for interior design focused clients, all at a great value. Since then, our inventory has grown, and we are able to offer a diverse array of rugs and full rug care services. We at Textura are committed to community building and investing in long term relationships with our clients and designers. Our goal is to create a flexible and personalized rug buying experience that is inclusive to a wide range of budgets and aesthetics. We hope you will find what you are looking for on the website, but if you need any assistance or don’t see what you need, please get in touch.


We strive to make the rug buying process fun and flexible! We listen carefully to your needs, provide guidance if requested, and then offer a selection with respect to your personal budget and aesthetic. You are welcome to try rugs on approval before purchasing.
