Bilou Bilou

Insolent by nature, hilarious in the name, Bilou Bilou also claims a talisman status.

But where does the name Bilou Bilou come from? Nowhere, from a nonsense pronounced as a joke. Pure carefree fantasy.

It is often laughing that Romeo Sozzi and his collaborators point out things.

Bilou Bilou is a dining chair created in 1999 by Romeo Sozzi. It is "the Chair" with a capital C.

Playing with solids and voids, Bilou Bilou dresses its structure with elastic velvet or nappa leather, available with legs in beech and seat in fabric and leather; materials created specifically to cover the chair soft shapes like a glove, without smudges.

The colors are also striking in Bilou Bilou: velvets with bright colors alternate in the two-color special version of the chair (front and back).

Bilou Bilou is produced in three sizes: standard, large and kids, the small version for the little ones.

As only the best muses can do, Bilou Bilou has entered the hearts and minds of artists and collectors as an object of worship and veneration. For this reason, since 2015, Promemoria has included in its collection new interpretations of the Bilou Bilou chair, by renowned architects and designers from all over the world.

The wide variety of designs and finishes proposed demonstrates the high level of creativity and expertise of all the international professionals involved in the project and, last but not least, the versatility of Bilou Bilou, a chair with a strong and original shape yet able to take on thousands of different souls.
