PILLOWPIA is a home accessories shop dedicated to offering easy eclectic pieces in an accessible way. Founder Pia Rappaport-Goldman brings her playful and uncomplicated style to the table where form and function both have equal seating. Her fine and commercial art education, coupled with her background building archives for major fashion designers, translates into an aesthetic that is enduring, transportive, and deeply rooted in nostalgia.
Founder Story Pia spent over a decade with designers Ralph Lauren and Tory Burch in operations, specializing in building and utilizing their brand archives. With a desire to return to creative work, Pia left fashion in late 2015 to officially launch PILLOWPIA.
Born and raised in Brooklyn, she is the daughter of a musician and a fine artist turned jewelry designer. Pia studied Economics & Sociology at the University of Maryland followed by Graphic Design at Parsons School of Design and draws inspiration from her creative background and extensive personal archive.
She currently lives with her husband, daughter, and son in a restored brownstone in the historic section of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
