The Beginning

Alejandro Sasplugas Moré and Fernando Figuerola Tutusaus founded the company in 1928. Barcelona was, at that time, preparing to welcome the world’s fair, for which Mies van der Rohe would create his legendary modernist pavilion. CRICURSA’s first project, just by the iconic pavillion, was the glass lamps at the Montjuïc fountains.
