In the heart of Berlin, in a repurposed post‑office at the border of East and West, designer Livio Graziottin and anthropologist marketer Sergio Eusebi sparked a creative vision in 2012 that would reshape the eyewear landscape. Kuboraum—a name meaning “cubic room”—emerged from a space that was gallery, studio, and showroom in one, embodying an interdisciplinary approach where art, fashion, and identity converge.
Every pair of Kuboraum is conceived through this Berlin‑born ethos, before being meticulously handcrafted in Italy. This fusion of Germany’s avant‑garde energy and Italy’s time‑honored artisanal expertise gives their eyewear an unmatched depth of character and craftsmanship.
Eyewear as “Mask” — A Bold Statement of Identity
Kuboraum does not merely produce glasses: it fashions masks. These are transformative pieces that do not conceal but amplify—the wearer’s face becomes a stage, and the eyewear the performance’s boldest act. Their design language champions asymmetry, geometric drama, and rich textures, often blending leather, metal, and even concrete to elevate tactile storytelling.
Each collection—like the K‑series inspired by Mayan and Samurai masks, or the hand‑hammered H‑series—pushes conventional design boundaries, crafting personalities rather than frames.
Art-World Ethos Meets High Style
Kuboraum’s origins are rooted in art culture: their founding meeting happened at an art gallery vernissage in 2009. Even now, every dimension of the brand—from design to identity, photo production to interior installations—is curated under Graziottin’s and Eusebi’s creative supervision.
This finely tuned control over narrative and aesthetic underpins Kuboraum’s transcendent appeal, turning eyewear into wearable art—objects to be experienced, not just worn.
Cult Following and Cultural Capital
Kuboraum’s daring aesthetic has magnetized fashion icons and trendsetters alike. Their eyewear adorns faces as bold as Lady Gaga’s and has found places in high‑profile features across Vogue, W Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, and more.
Truly, the brand’s success resides in its intentional ambiguity—it lifts the veil to let the wearer’s identity shine through, blending anonymity with empowerment.
From Berlin Studio to Global Eyewear Icon
Kuboraum remains an independent powerhouse, carving its niche through uncompromised creativity and craftsmanship. Their flagship Berlin space functions as a nexus of design innovation—from communications to installations—while their frames continue to be meticulously built in Italian ateliers.
