Augusto Bozzi (1921–1991) was a central figure in Italian design of the mid-20th century, renowned for his elegant and rational approach to modern furniture design. As an architect and designer, Bozzi skillfully combined formal research, structural innovation, and comfort, standing out for his exploration of organic and soft shapes—especially in seating—that reflected contemporary artistic languages, such as the work of Jean Arp. He was also known for the lightness of materials achieved through innovative production methods. These qualities played a key role in promoting the Made in Italy brand on the international design stage.


A defining chapter in his career was his collaboration with Saporiti Italia, a company emblematic of high-end furniture production. For Saporiti, Bozzi developed collections characterized by clean lines, high-quality materials, and cutting-edge technical solutions, capable of interpreting the needs of contemporary living with a sophisticated and timeless style. Bozzi’s Saporiti designs remain a benchmark today for collectors and interior designers seeking iconic and functional furniture.
