What we already thought would be a fun trip turned out to be so much more: the love and enthusiasm of the exhibitors, attendees and Maker Faire Rome’s team for innovation, education, and general celebration of the maker movement was awe-inspiring. There is so much to see that a single year in attendance is not enough, so if you ever get the opportunity, head to this show, soak in the sea of inventions, and make some great friends along the way.

Cosplus - Artistic Sci-Fi Wearables
Cosplus works to make the visions of Sci-Fi into actual wearable products: masks and helmets meant to excite and nourish the identity and fashion themes in the playground of our modern-day heroes. Their services include serial lineup design, production, and more exclusive alter-ego and mascotte fabrication; from the brief down to the actual wearable item.
3D printing, vacuum-forming, 2D concept art, 3D CAD, ergonomics, PCB design and coding, social media, and teamwork - are just a few of the tools of the trade required to make these big boys' toys into reality.
Armando Elefante
Hi, I'm Armando, a '93 class Designer!
My lifelong passion for science fiction and product design led me on a long journey toward turning my ideas into gadgets I - and the people like me - could play with and enjoy. This, in turn, evolved into a profound artistic need that combines aesthetic research and practical solutions.
What defines me is an uncontainable drive to always come up with new ideas, designs, methods, and visuals.
I earned my Design degree at ISIA in Florence and started my company in 2017 - even though my efforts and experimentations are rooted far before that.
