Story
A shape that names the pouf
The Silo pouf takes its name from its simple cylindrical shape. Its clean, geometric appearance makes it seem like a blank canvas that fits any space or taste according to the chosen upholstery.
Firm enough for other uses
The soft but firm surface lets Silo act as a stand-in for a coffee table, for example to keep magazines and literature. Normann Copenhagen places it in a hall, living room, dressing room or bedroom.
