Story
A stack of pillows
Perron describes his aim for the sofa as a really simple, big gesture, like a bunch of pillows stacked on top of each other. Knoll's page says that despite its look the sofa is engineered for sitting, curling up and stretching out.

Deep seats and a basket of pillows
Knoll describes deep seats designed to be sat in, not on, and a sofa that works like a basket of pillows that lets you forget the piece and enjoy being in it.
