The Perron Pillo Sofa challenges preconceptions. What appears to be a freestanding stack of oversized pillows is, in fact, engineered to oﬀer lounge-like support for sitting, curling up, and stretching out. Creating a sofa that’s evocative and inviting was integral to designer Willo Perron’s approach. “Everything I do has a bit of humor in it,” he says. “I wanted the sofa to evoke surprise and emotion.”

A welcoming oasis

The form of the Perron Pillo Sofa evokes curiosity, but its all-encompassing comfort feels familiar and welcoming.

With deep seats designed to be sat in, not on, this comforting refuge beckons you to jump in and relax.

Like magic, it's a ‘basket of pillows’ that makes you forget the piece and just enjoy being in it.

Make it your own

The Perron Pillo Sofa is designed to adapt. The individual modular components can be combined in countless ways and reconﬁgured as needs and locations change. Select from two depths to match the size and function of your space—Standard is smaller and more upright, while Deep oﬀers a more lounge-like sit. When it comes to upholstery, Pillo’s simple construction welcomes a variety of textiles—making it a showcase for the customer’s creativity. Says designer Willo Perron, “It’s a choose your own adventure experience.”
