Obstinate is an intimate yet collective journey through the life and creative path of Massimo Osti, a designer who helped “assemble” the future. Through the words of Daniela Facchinato and testimonies from friends and collaborators, the book traces his biography and shows how his work was shaped by personal passions and a unique historical moment. Set against his native Bologna—a city that defined him in the 1970s and 1980s—the narrative connects design research with relationships, portraying a reserved yet generous figure. Osti, a “designer of function” rather than a stylist, transformed menswear through innovation in materials and garment dyeing. The book celebrates his experimental method and lasting influence on contemporary design.
