Enveloping Sofa Structures

The Knoll Perron Pillo Sofa Engulfs the User in a Basket of Softness

Knoll has partnered with Willo Perron to introduce the Perron Pillo sofa to the North American market. Marketed as a “basket of pillows,” the Perron Pillo is redefining the conventional sofa design with an innovative, frame-free construction and luxurious comfort. Unlike traditional sofas, this design allows users to experience a feeling of enveloping relaxation, as its pillows are crafted to be sat “in” rather than “on,” ensuring a plush, inviting seating experience.

The sofa's modular system offers high flexibility, with customizable configurations that adapt seamlessly to various room layouts. Available in two depth options, the Perron Pillo offers upholstery options that include a curated selection of textiles, allowing clients to personalize each piece to suit their style.

After initially being showcased at Milan Design Week, the Perron Pillo is now available in North America.
