Binary geometries have recently been introduced in particle physics in connection with stringy integrals. In this work, we study a class of simple polytopes, called \emph{ pellytopes}, whose number of vertices are given by Pell's numbers. We provide a new family of binary geometries determined by pellytopes as conjectured by He--Li--Raman--Zhang. We relate this family to the moduli space of curves by comparing the pellytope to the ABHY associahedron.
