Hello.
PILLOWPIA is a home accessories shop for those who crave relaxed familiar style over sharp edges and time-stamped trends.
Our collections are designed to be lived in—easy-going and soft enough to sink into, uncomplicated yet playful, an approach where form and function have equal seating at the table.
Thoughtful, mindful, and inspired by the world around us, Pillowpia products are everyday indulgences designed to be enjoyed.
Our Founder
Born and raised in Brooklyn, Pia is the daughter of a musician, and a fine artist turned jewelry designer. She earned a degree in Economics and Sociology at the University of Maryland, going on to study Communication Design at Parsons School of Design in New York City.
Her early career was spent deep in the trenches with great American designers including Ralph Lauren and Tory Burch. Pia specialized in building design inspiration and brand archives. These tools were built with preservation in mind, but also access and reinvention. With a desire to produce creative work of her own, Pia left fashion to launch PILLOWPIA.
Her design style conjoins elements from her creative background and an extensive personal archive. A love of graphic design drives her desire for a cohesive visual language. Delightful hints from her fashion career appear in well-placed product details. Her deep knowledge of textile and pattern history inform a style that is perennial and celebrates the imperfection of something handmade or well worn. All of these elements, combined with her welcoming sense of humor, translate into a nostalgic aesthetic that is equal parts disarming, transportive, and genuinely joyful.
These days, you’ll find Pia living her dream with her husband and their three children in a restored brownstone in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn or at their summer home on Long Island’s east end.
"If it involves getting dressed the answer is no."
Our Products
PILLOWPIA products are designed in-house and made with kindness and care.
Designed from our headquarters in Brooklyn, NY, products are sold directly through our website and at more than 500 partner retail stores across America.
It is our goal to find the most skilled technicians in a particular material or craft to make that specific product. We manufacture all over the world, sourcing from artisans across the United States, India, Morocco, China, and Vietnam to name a few.
PILLOWPIA products are made of natural materials like cotton, linen, and grasses. The minimal synthetics we use are made from 100% post-consumer recycled materials—but this is not solely an eco-conscious approach. The materials we choose have character, texture, and strength, resulting in products that feel good, look great, and make your home truly one-of-a-kind.

Let customers speak for us
This pillow is gorgeous. I now have four different pillows from this wonderful company, with another one on the way.
Beautiful unique pillows with great inserts. Fast shipping too. I ordered two of these in different colors and have already placed an order for two more different styled pillows. I’m so glad I found PILLOWPIA!
The black sheep ornament is fantastic! Very cute, very well made. I may get some white ones!
Very positive experience from start to finish. It will be a Christmas gift for my daughter in law this year and I am sure she will love it. As soon as I saw it, I knew she would want it for her trips to the farmers market!
So beautiful! Nice thick paper. Came perfectly rolled and protected. I can’t wait to frame it!!!
I just received two of these as a gift and I absolutely LOVE them. I've had the french market bag for a few years, and these are a great addition for when I want a little more structure to carry certain items. Very well made!
Great quality. Love all the different colors. Great for our beach town living.
