During his studies, Borsani participated in the fifth edition of the Triennale with his project Casa Minima, which earned him the silver medal. He also soon began helping his father Gaetano with the family business, Atelier Varedo, designing and producing furniture with a European Art Deco influence. In 1932 the factory changed its name to Borsani Furniture, and opened its first store in Milan; in this period Borsani began to collaborate with Milanese artists such as Lucio Fontana, Agenore Fabbri, Arnaldo, and Gio Pomodoro. In 1953 Osvaldo and his twin brother Fulgenzio founded TECNO, a company known for its technological and scientific approach to furniture production. Prominent designs made by TECNO include the 1954 D70 sofa, which can be positioned in up to twenty different ways; the P40 chaise longue from 1955, with adjustable armrests and backrest, and moving parts; and the Graphis office system from 1968, created by Borsani and Eugenio Gerli. In 1970 Borsani presented the Tecno Project Center, together with Marco Fantoni, and his daughter Valeria, an absolutely innovative design laboratory. Borsani died on April 16, 1985 in Milan.
