Knoll continues its partnership with designer, creative director, and cultural polymath, Willo Perron with the introduction of the Perron Pillo Lounge Chair, available in a classic fixed or a dynamic swivel option. Building on the experience introduced with the Perron Pillo Sofa that debuted last fall, the chair offers a new interpretation of all-immersive comfort and a unique design for individuals to relax in.
Through the Perron Pillo Lounge Chair, Knoll brings to life two new forms: a swivel chair with smooth, 360-degree rotation that allows you to easily rotate and view the entire setting, or a fixed chair with no rotation. Similar to the Pillo Sofa, what appears to be a freestanding stack of oversized pillows is in fact designed to offer a lounge-like setting to foster conversation and relaxation.
“We reduced the scale while maintaining the original spirit from the sofa,” commented Willo Perron. “You’re fully immersed in the Pillo-ness of the Pillo.”
The Pillo Chair's simple design serves as an opportunity for personalization, allowing customers to tailor the chair to their own interiors through an array of textile options and create a respite that's uniquely their own. “It’s a choose your own adventure experience,” says Perron.
A perfect complement to the Perron Pillo Sofa and Perron Bun Lounge Chair, the Pillo Lounge Chair is ideal for an array of interiors. It’s a form that reflects today’s contemporary lifestyles that embrace time for leisure and play and also reflects Perron’s approach of bringing unconventional twists to his work by placing a simple form at the center of the design.
“Knoll products are based on a single, strong idea that drives the entire project. In this case the Pillo sofa–and now Pillo lounge chair–are driven by the idea of the pillow as a building block,” commented Jonthan Olivares, Knoll SVP of Design. “These pieces are extremely intuitive, with minimum aesthetic fuss and maximum comfort.”
With this new addition to the Pillo collection, Knoll continues its tradition of partnering with contemporary design visionaries. Perron works on an array of projects, from runway shows and art direction for top brands, to large-scale sets and live events for some of the biggest names in music and fashion. Through this launch, customers have a full dynamic suite of Willo Perron products to choose from.
