About

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.

Founding Story

After over a decade building archives for major fashion designers including Ralph Lauren and Tory Burch, founder Pia Rappaport left corporate life to pursue her own design work. With a lifelong passion for prints, textiles and home decor, Pia launched PILLOWPIA in 2016 shortly after her first child was born. Since then, she has had two more children who have grown up alongside the business. Pia draws inspiration from her creative background and extensive personal archive, always leaving some space for feedback from her kiddos.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, Pia is the daughter of a jazz pianist and a fine artist/jewelry designer. She currently lives with her husband, daughter, and two sons in a restored brownstone in the historic section of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.

Team Bios

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.
