THE HISTORY

Through Gianluca Gualandi's vision, Talla does not just tell the story of a journey; it carries it within itself. Wearing a Talla frame means wearing something that was designed far away, has lived everywhere, and was carefully crafted.

The origins

THE HERITAGE | From the sports field to the workshop

It all starts in Bologna. "Talla" was the nickname shouted at Gianluca Gualandi on the football fields. Today, this name has become a signature. From his Italian roots, he retains a taste for movement, precision, and authenticity.

LA VISION | The optician turned designer

Before drawing, Gianluca studies. For years, he observes thousands of faces and then founded Talla Eyewear in 2016 with a conviction: a frame is not a neutral accessory. It is an object shaped by encounters, travels, and cultural influences.

KNOW-HOW | Analyze. Decide. Master.

The discipline of sport is reflected in every step of creation. Talla Eyewear seeks neither excess nor understatement. Each frame finds the perfect balance between uniqueness and simplicity, artisanal tradition and absolute modernity.

COMMITMENT | To exist with accuracy

Choosing Talla means choosing an item designed to last and adapt to the person who wears it. A discreet, precise, and confident presence.

Philosophy

By choosing to subtract rather than add, one does not create a void, but a space where the object or emotion can finally breathe. Intuition plays the role of a compass here: it helps avoid cold and rigid minimalism in favor of something more organic, more human. It is the art of knowing exactly when to stop so that the natural beauty of a material or idea takes full place.

Born in Bologna, shaped in Hong Kong, and created in Paris, Talla Eyewear is a visual dialogue between these three cities and forges an instinctive, recognizable, and unclassifiable identity, around Italian instinct, the energy of Hong Kong, and Parisian elegance.
