We hate your "mood-enhancing" attempt and obsessively collect the old carpet so our living rooms can have actual mood enhancement from the carpet we actually liked. Such demand businesses "could request 1,000 square yards (840 m2)" (out of approx 100,000 m2). Only four (4) were actually made available. [1] Still goes for decent ($200 / sq. ft.) prices online [2] and people still freak out when they spot it somewhere. [3]
I'm one of those people. My mom was an executive who traveled to DC practically weekly, so I have fond memories of going go PDX often go see her off and pick her up with my dad. That carpet features in those memories.
