Viaggio

In keeping with Piero Massaro’s insatiably curious, experimental approach, this new collection offers us a series of thrills that derive from his travels, both actual and imaginary. His painstaking selection of the most electrifying details of the landscapes encountered along the way have been grafted onto the acetates of the eyewear, which – almost by...

Geometrie

Seemingly simple in style, the new “Geometrie” collection from the designer Piero Massaro, given its preview in New York, is in fact a joyous exploration of colour meeting architecture. Architectural features abound, from the colourful base supporting the end pieces, to the impeccable fluidity between their lines and those of the temples; and this is...

Giardini Verticali

Piero Massaro is a designer, but he is also a gentleman and, as such, he likes to give flowers! But he does this in his own way, with a collection in which acetates, with warm and welcoming nuances, evoke images of plants and flowers of every form and colour; the brushed effect of the acetate...

Numerica

A lifetime devoted to architecture plus a passion for mathematics… these are the foundations of designer Piero Massaro’s new collection, leading to a tenacious quest for proportions and balances which in his works explore and create harmony, the mysterious focus of his constant research. The foundations of proportions and balances are of course numbers, which...

Patchwork

Over the centuries Patchwork has transcended its original purpose as an invention driven by necessity, and has frequently risen to great heights of artistic creation. Having discovered this aesthetic dimension while visiting Japan – a culture where patchwork is highly prestigious and deeply revered – the designer Piero Massaro was inspired to engage with it...
