Born in Milan in 1930, he studied architecture at the University of Milan before starting his career in design.

Massoni worked for many Italian design companies, including Boffi and Alessi. He was also one of the founders of Gruppo Architetti Urbanisti Città Nuova, an organization that deals with urban planning and architecture.

Poltrona Frau is an Italian company that operates in the high-end furniture sector based in Tolentino. Founded in 1912 in Turin by Renzo Frau from Cagliari, in 1962 it was acquired by the Nazareno Gabrielli brand, managed and developed by Cavalier Franco Moschini until 2004, when the Charme fund entered the capital of Poltrona Frau and established the Poltrona Frau Group.

Franco Moschini remained president until 2016 but since 2014 the company has been controlled by the American company Haworth Inc. which expands the group. In the summer of 2019 Lifestyle Design was born, which in addition to Poltrona Frau includes Cassina, Cappellini, Zanotta, Ceccotti Collezioni, Janus et Cie, Luminaire, Karakter, Interni and Luxury Living Group.
