DUBAI, UAE – The Rug Company announces the opening of The Rug Company Bungalow, its first flagship store in the Middle East, located in Jumeirah, Dubai.

This space reimagines the charm of Jumeirah’s 1970s architecture while evoking the bohemian glamour of Palm Springs. Designed in collaboration with Styled Habitat, it offers an atmosphere reminiscent of a hidden gem waiting to be discovered.

The Rug Company Bungalow caters to Dubai’s discerning clientele, blending  handmade rugs with curated accessories in an immersive, homely setting. The dedicated team provides exceptional, white-glove service, ensuring that each rug is perfectly tailored to suit clients’ homes, offering personalized consultations both in-store and in the comfort of their own spaces.

Guests are invited to discover an ever-evolving curation of designs, showcasing extraordinary collaborations with visionary icons like Alexander McQueen, Kelly Wearstler and Mary Katrantzou.

Jan Vingerhoets, CEO of The Rug Company said: “The Middle East boasts a rich heritage of art, design, and craftsmanship that spans centuries. With our opening in Dubai, we aimed to domthings differently, creating what we believe is the finest expression of our brand to date. The Bungalow’s design thoughtfully incorporates elements that reflect and honour the local culture, making it a truly unique destination for our customers. It’s a welcoming home for locals to appreciate and celebrate design."


The Rug Company Bungalow features a conversation lounge with a wall-to-wall Sono rug.

Adds Kate Judd, managing director of the Middle East, “The home is a cherished place where family and friends gather in the UAE. A rug is not only a decorative piece—it symbolises warmth, hospitality, and tradition. We understand that our creations become treasured parts of our clients’ lives, enriching the spaces where meaningful moments unfold.”

The Rug Company Bungalow will also serve as a venue for exclusive events, brand collaborations, and intimate gatherings, providing an inspiring environment where designers, creatives, and clients can come together to collaborate.
