I like the feeling of being different.
I have directed scores of projects ever since I founded NERDO in 2009, racking up many international awards.
I'm intimately familiar with that itch to bust out of the box, to show your unadulterated self without subscribing to any preset mold or rhetoric.
From my earliest days, that spirit of rebellion coursed through my veins, manifesting in small but powerful ways, all the while blasting out punk, glam, and metal tunes.
To my mind, there's always a way to smash through the stereotype
and concoct something raw and unfiltered, even when the landscape appears immovable and entrenched.
I'm inspired by an universe of languages in all their diverse, oft-conflicting elegance: Bauhaus, mixed media, typography, low-fi computer graphics, vaporwave, new wave, anti-design, brutalism, deconstructivism but I also fashion, architecture, paintings and nature.
Colors and framing are crucial in my process.
I'm fascinated by the ways these visuals stir the senses and convey meaning beyond what they literally depict.
Xerjoff
Automobili Lamborghini
Speed becomes light. Emotion becomes motion. Every frame breathes adrenaline.
Presenting Xerjoff x Automobili Lamborghini
An unprecedented encounter between two icons of craftsmanship and innovation, united by one shared vision: challenge conventions and dare to go beyond.
Fierezza, Avanguardia and Perseveranza: three fragrances born from precision, power and emotion. Each scent carries the thrill of the road.
To capture that feeling, we blended cutting-edge CGI with AI-driven techniques, shaping dynamic visuals where fluo accents ignite sleek elegance.
Now close your eyes, breathe in and feel the drive.

Xerjoff x Duran Duran
Neo Rio
A collaboration between Xerjoff and Duran Duran , where fragrance and music collide in a multi-sensory journey.
We translated the essence of sound into motion, crafting a campaign that blends bespoke colour bleeds and fluo colours, echoing the bold heritage of both the band and the fragrance.
A visual and olfactory experience that moves beyond boundaries, bringing Xerjoff’s craftsmanship and Duran Duran’s legacy to life in a way never seen before.
Xerjoff
Shooting Stars
From the infinite… to the skin.
With Gibeon, part of the Shooting Stars collection, Xerjoff captures something older than time itself. A meteorite traveling 4.5 billion years through space, landing in silence—yet echoing forever.
This is not just inspiration. It’s cosmic legacy.
A scent that mirrors the journey: soft, weightless, eternal.
Raw beauty shaped by nature. Refined into pure elegance.
From the vastness of the universe to something you can feel—Gibeon is wonder, distilled.

“And if love were the only form of eternity granted to human beings?”
— José Saramago
I always wanted to explore the eternal concept of love as a universal force devoid of temporal, physical, or gender boundaries.
Love, present without distinction in every individual, thus becomes an element of deep reflection on the human condition.
I found it interesting and paradoxical to entrust the representation of such a profound emotion to a machine, to artificial intelligence, creating a logical short circuit that questions the limits between human feeling and algorithmic rationality.

Oppo
Reno3 Director's cut
Oppo is one of the best phone brands on the market for combining technology with an attractive design.
The new Reno3 Lisa and Raphael models fulfil even the most demanding requirements, with screen and speakers optimised for watching your favorite Netflix TV series in peace, plus a longer lasting battery.
For the release video of the new models, we used a minimalist setting and elegant styling, to make the phones the stars of the show and enhance their features.
LaF
Broadcast Rebrand
The broadcast channel La Effe is not only a TV station. It’s an eclectic, multifaceted, plural and versatile way of thinking.
For their new on-air identity they were looking for something to convey a big change in their positioning, to stand out among the other SKY channels, something clear, brave and cool.
We came out with a strong typographic approach to celebrate their background, enclosed in a never-seen-on-TV design.
Mogu
Branding
Finding your real nature sometimes mean to make radical choices, easily not conformed to the standards and most often disruptive.
The nature of Mogu is radically different from all the other companies and competitors, it has a radical, strong identity that need to stand out and speak to their prospect, making clear they share the same vision.
CONCEPT
Home is where you can be completely yourself.
We chose to sneak into people’s lives, capturing moments of everyday life with direct, sometimes provocative, images that can talk directly to the prospect.
The result is a magazine-style brand image, with a collection of unexpected frames that put the core on what being truly radical means.
NetApp
For the Love of Cloud
NetApp’s passion is in the work they do improving the cloud. And it shows in all the benefits you get from choosing NetApp.
But let’s face it. They’re cloud engineers. They’re coders... geeks. Who aren’t used to showing their emotions all that much.
On the outside, that love for the cloud might manifest as a fistbump or half hearted ‘wooop’. But on the inside... inside their heads... that’s where the real excitement is.
Our goal was to showcase the contrast within these persons: where though they may appear focused and composed on the surface, inside they feel a deep sense of satisfaction and fulfillment when solving a challenging problem.
TedX
Artificial - Sydney
We were among some of the most talented creative studio in the world to create one of the ident for the TEDx Sydney 2020, the largest TEDx in the southern hemisphere – and one of the largest worldwide. We were inspired by the concept of “reality” and how its meaning is gradually blurring nowadays.
Cloud Space
A series of videos for the new Google Cloud Space in California, an interactive space conceived for costumers, partners and tech communities alike, showcasing the global scale of Google’s technology and data centers.
We realised four explainer videos for Google Cloud’s G Suite, focusing on security, artificial intelligence and Drouot technology, that could interact with the physical installation in Cloud Space.
Using 3d animation, we created plain backgrounds and played with shapes and the bright Google colours, to emphasise a clear explanatory content.
ho. mobile
e poi c'è ho.
Have you ever locked yourself out of your house or finally found something you’d spent ages looking for?
Working with Bcube, we used these everyday situations as a starting point to develop the concept of the new campaign for Ho.
Mobile, a Vodafone phone company that has just landed in Italy.
The result is a, fresh, original, entertaining video, just like the Ho. Mobile brand.
After all, “life is full of ohhhs, and then there’s Ho”.

Tv8
Branding
Surrounded by the other mainstream competitors, the main goal was to achieve a strong recognizability in this crowded positioning, with a pop but forward looking design.
At a glance, the audience perceived this new channel immediately, with its courageous black and white palette and its bold typography, even if accustomed to a completely different language.

Bundesliga 60°
Different Times. Same Passion.
We wanted to portray electrifying on-pitch action, encompassing goals, deft tackles, skilful manoeuvres, and the raw emotional expressions intrinsic to the sport without time barriers.
We juxtaposed the same sporting actions across different historical moments, comparing them to underscore how passion, tenacity, and strength have remained unchanged not only from then to now but also by interweaving gameplay actions from the past with more contemporary moments.
Players pass the ball across different eras, and fans cheer for teams from various decades, all united by the same passion.
