The signature
La formula Aurea
A name that means gold, an address in the heart of Rome, one hand from the first sketch to the last line, and the time to do it well. Four elements, one studio.
Roma
Via degli Zingari 12, a few steps from the Colosseum. The city that has been drawing for two thousand years is the first material.
L'oro
A black door with gold lettering, mirrors, warm light. The studio was built like a jewel box, and the name says it: gold.
La mano
The artist you meet at the consultation is the one who draws and tattoos your piece. Your story passes through one hand.
Il tempo
A private session, without haste. The door closes, the city stays outside, and your story gets the time it deserves.
Roma, l'oro, la mano, il tempo.
Visit the studioSpecialities
One studio, every shade of detail
Our work ranges from a whisper of a line to a portrait you can read from across the room.
Fine line
One unbroken line, no outline to hide behind: florals, script, constellations and symbols, drawn at the size they deserve.
02Micro-realism
Tiny pieces with the detail of a large one: statues, animals, landscapes and memories compressed into a few centimetres.
03Hyper-realism
Black & grey realism built layer by layer until the skin looks lit from inside: statues, drapery, destruction effects, texture.
04Portrait
Faces, animals and icons rendered from a photograph, until the eyes are the person you remember.
05Black & grey
No colour, no shortcuts: myth, skulls, angels, dragons and ornament, shaded with grey wash and dotwork.
06Colour
Saturated, painterly colour: from Botticelli to Van Gogh, translated into skin with the space to breathe.
Custom work by appointment, walk-ins during opening hours, cover-ups, the Los Angeles guest spot and the Aureo Academy.

Words from the chair
“I got this incredibly meaningful tattoo with Alessandro Capozzi. Getting a tattoo with him was an experience I had never had before. I told him about my life and where I was at the time, and we created a combination of images that best symbolised the spiritual awakening I was having. Alessandro — you are extremely talented and I can't wait for more.”

Questions, answered
A manager replies within 10 minutes during opening hours.
Do I need an appointment?
Custom work and larger pieces are by appointment. We also keep a limited number of walk-in spots every day, Monday to Saturday — first come, first served.
How much does a tattoo cost?
It depends on size, placement and detail. Send a request with your idea and we will give you an honest range before you commit to anything.
How long does a session take?
A small fine-line piece can take 30 minutes; a portrait can take a full day or several sessions. We plan the timing with you in advance.
Is it safe?
Yes. Single-use needles, sterilised equipment, licensed artists and written aftercare instructions for every tattoo.
Which languages do you speak?
English, Italian and Spanish, plus international guest artists throughout the year.
Can I bring a reference?
Please do. References help us understand your taste — the final design will be drawn for you, not copied.
Do you tattoo tourists?
Every day. We will explain how to care for a fresh tattoo on a flight, at the beach or in the sun.
How do I cancel or reschedule?
Write to us on WhatsApp or by email at least 48 hours before the session and we will find a new date.
