MARCELLO PIPITONE is contrast.
Born in Milan on 5/1/1996 in the Bonola district next to the San Siro stadium. The imagery is a balance between present and past, speed and movement, brutal suburbs and historic center, different graphics and materials which when coupled together make the productions unique in their kind. Through passion and love for the city and for sport we develop the concept of the brand.

Lines create a connection between different periods in one product, just like roads connect us.

Contrast creates impact, History adds value, the city and the streets shape our projects, technique and precision are the foundations.
