Product Q&A: Perillo by Dauphin
NAME
Perillo
BIRTHPLACE
Germany
PARENTS
German Designer, Martin Ballendat and Dauphin
SIBLINGS
At the moment I'm an only child, but you never
know!
GENETIC MAKEUP
I'm crafted from one continuous sheet of material,
which is enhanced by my polished metal base.
FAVORITE COLORS
I never met a color I didn't like, but if I had to
choose a favorite, mine would be white. I like a
blank canvas because then you can choose any
color or pattern you want to suit your personal
style or space.
WHAT'S YOUR BEST FEATURE?
I would have to say my sculptural appearance.
I'm sophisticated yet extremely comfortable;
most people don't realize that about me.
WHERE DO YOU FEEL MOST AT HOME?
I like being the center of attention, so I enjoy
touchdown spaces like lobbies and colleges/
universities … places where people connect.
WHAT MAKES YOU SPECIAL?
I am truly unique. There is no one out there like
me … that's why I'm always smiling!
PROUDEST MOMENT
NeoCon 2010 is definitely a moment that stands
out for me. On opening day, I was so nervous.
People were pointing at me through the showroom
window, which made me feel a little self-conscious,
but then when they came in to meet me, they
were snapping pictures left and right … I felt like
a celebrity!
DREAMS
To be used in a "dynamic space"—a place where
people can connect in today's busy society.
