In 1937, Osvaldo entered the Politecnico di Milano to study architecture. After completing his degree, he joined the family business, Atelier Varedo (later Arredamento Borsani) as a furniture designer. Throughout the 1940s and early 50s, Osvaldo produced a large body of work including case goods, storage pieces and seating. Especially noteworthy was a 1946 wall-mounted shelving system. Among his clients were Crippa, Fabbri, Fontana and Sussu. In 1953, Osvaldo and Fulgencio founded a firm called Tecno, which, as its name suggests, became known for its technology- and research-based, approach to furniture design. In 1955, Tenco issued one of its best-known pieces, the P40 chaise longue. Described as a "machine for sitting", it featured rubber arms and could assume 486 distinct postures; the D70, a sofa version, was also manufactured. Osvaldo himself acted as the company`s sole designer for over 30 years; it was not until the mid 1980s that Gae Aulenti, Norman Foster and others began to contribute designs. Today, Tecno is known for its innovative furniture for offices and public buildings. Osvaldo had a long history of participation in the Triennale di Milano dating back to 1933, when he collaborated with architects Cairoli and G. B. Varisco on a project called the "Casa Minima"; he would continue to exhibit his work there for decades to come. Museums and galleries throughout Europe and, in 1962 showcased his designs; he received the prestigious Premio Compasso dOro. |
