History
CREW began as an engineering practice in 1987, initially named Tecne. The firm at the beginning was known for its civil, industrial, energy production and waste-to-energy projects, such as the waste-to-energy plant in Brescia and the newspaper printing center of Erbusco.
In 2001 CREW received its first commision for designing the Metro of Brescia, after winning an international design competition.Thanks to this complex project the studio has acquired great experience in the metro design. This was followed, a decade later, by other important projects in the field of infrastructure design for the Metro 3 of Ryiadh. CREW became an international practice of architecture and structural engineering, thanks to its professionalism and rigorous conscientious work methods that distinguish our activity.
In 2018, Italferr acquired the majority stake, propelling CREW into high-quality international infrastructure projects. As of 2024, CREW is an integral part of the Polo Urbano of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane, solidifying its position as a leading multidisciplinary design firm committed to ambitious and valuable projects worldwide.
