Osvaldo Borsani
Borsani produced a large body of work including case goods, storage pieces, and seating. Osvaldo and his twin brother Fulgencio founded a firm called Tecno which was at the forefront of a post-war design movement that experimented with ideas of utopia and extreme modernity.
Tecno has established a reputation for innovative design, particularly in the use of metal frames and polyfoam upholstery. This reputation was boosted by participation in the Milan Triennale of 1954, where visitors could see the flexible D70 divan-bed. This was followed by the highly versatile P40 lounge chair, which could be adjusted to a variety of seating and reclining positions.
