The L77 adjustable daybed by Osvaldo Borsani for Tecno is defined by its articulated structure and mechanical precision. Developed in the 1950s, the model features a fully adjustable backrest and support system, allowing the form to shift between seating and reclining positions. Upholstered in tufted leather and set on a metal frame, the design reflects Borsani’s focus on adaptability and engineered form within postwar Italian furniture.

About the Maker:
Osvaldo Borsani (1911–1985) was an Italian architect and designer and co-founder of Tecno, established in Milan in 1953. Tecno became known for its technically advanced and modular furniture, developed through a close integration of design and engineering. Borsani’s work frequently incorporated adjustable and transformable elements, reflecting a broader postwar interest in flexibility and modern living. His designs remain central to the history of Italian modernism and are included in major museum collections.
