  • Description
    Osvaldo Borsani in 1953, together with his brother Fulgenzio, realized his most complex project: a company idea named after the "techne" of the Greeks, which means both art and technique. Tecno thinking was born: the perfect synthesis between the artisan experience of the atelier and its declination on a larger scale.
    Tecno is first and foremost an entrepreneur's project: Italy has begun its process of tertiarization; the office environment does not yet have its unquestionable formal definition, and that is where Osvaldo Borsani wants to get to: to reinvent for workspaces that mix of formal elegance, rigor and rational functionality that the modern movement had developed for domestic living.
    Here we have the iconic armchair mod. P40 designed by Osvaldo Borsani for Tecno.
    Adjustable armchair with lacquered metal structure, padding on elastic ribbons and fabric covering. First series with round section legs and without extendable headrest.
    In very good condition and fully original.
