Pil Armchair
The Bonaldo Pil armchair by Alessandro Busana turns the pillow into the chair’s main form.
Separate seat and back cushions create its softly defined outline, with a central fold in the seat adding an enveloping shape. Metal legs support standard and high-back versions, and a coordinating footrest extends the Pil lounge seating family.
Every detail, considered.
