BEHIND THE SEATS
“The Standard of Quality” – Tommaso Mosconi
We are not just a seating company. We are an engineering company.
That is how Tommaso Mosconi sums up why he joined Figueras this year to lead our development across the #UK and #Ireland.
He sees these two markets as the birthplace of so many bold architectural ideas. With entertainment, live events, and cultural spaces redefining our cities, he believes our job is to sit alongside architects as engineering partners, developing tailored solutions for their most demanding and complex projects.
“Where Architecture Sits” – Marta Ferrer
Why do architects keep trusting Figueras after all these years?
Marta Ferrer shares her perspective after more than 26 years with the company.
For us, it has never been about just manufacturing or installing seats. It is about understanding the architecture from its very conception. Barcelona and its rich design heritage have always deeply shaped who we are.
Our goal is to work hand-in-hand with professionals to solve their projects and creating spaces where people live real experiences.
“The Human Joint” – Raquel Almazán
From her role in global logistics to her commitment within a traditional castell team (Colla Castellera), Raquel Almazán bridges the space between complex planning and collective trust.
Her story shows that moving thousands of seats across borders requires the same precision used to touch the sky with her Colla.
“The Artist's Seat” – Gádor Ferrer
Nearly 20 years supporting the sales team across the US and Europe. Gádor is a painter outside of work. Someone who says that painting has taught her to slow down, to look at the full picture before making a move. It comes through in everything she does.
“A Life at Figueras” – Pili Rodríguez
Thirty years at the same company is easily said, but it represents a journey filled with projects, colleagues, memorable moments, and constant learning.
Meet Pili and discover her journey at Figueras.
“Humility by Hand” – Sergio Álvarez
After 20 years, and with upholstery expertise in his blood, Sergi could recognize a Figueras seat with his eyes closed.
He knows it by the quality, the stitching, and the way the fabric fits the foam perfectly.
“Assembly together” – Carmen Castillo
Teamwork is what makes anything possible.
In Assembly, every finished seat is a shared victory. Carmen tells us how the magic of teamwork transforms individual components into global projects that represent, above all, a collective sense of pride.
“The Art of Craftsmanship” – Óscar Luna
Excellence begins in the hands.
Óscar Luna opens the doors to the workshop where precision and patience turn into art. His story embodies the value of experience and the pride of a craft that continues to shape every Figueras seat.
“Bridging Generations” – Carla Sallés & Josep Maria Moret
Two generations, one shared passion.
Carla and Josep Maria exchange questions, laughter and ideas, showing how experience and innovation coexist in harmony. At Figueras, the future of design grows stronger through the dialogue between generations.
“A Vision in Every Seat” – Josep Manel Santiago
Every seat tells a story, all guided by the same vision.
Josep Manel Santiago reflects on how Figueras transforms engineering, design, and emotion into complete experiences. Because creating seats means creating spaces for culture, ideas, and human connection.
