Oriol Garcia belongs to the sixth generation of traditional stuccoists operating in Catalonia since 1860, originally founded by Sebastià Garcia Prats. Oriol learned his craft from his father in the family workshop. His education and degree in Fine Arts and restoration bring knowledge and an aesthetic dimension to his work as a craftsman. "It is purely artisanal work that requires time, patience, and a desire to learn and improve. It is a profession that helps to embellish spaces and tells a timeless story, filling our streets with colour and designs," says Oriol. His journey has led him to work with renowned architects like Oscar Tusquets and Rafael Moneo. He was also involved in iconic projects such as the Sagrada Familia, the Prado Museum, and the Casa Coll i Regàs, among others. Oriol has worked on conservation and restoration tasks in significant buildings alongside his original creative projects, and he also dedicates his time to passing on his craft through workshops in universities and professional schools.
