We study point-line incidence structures and their properties in the projective plane. Our motivation is the problem of the existence of (n_4) configurations, still open for few remaining values of n. Our approach is based on quasi-configurations: point-line incidence structures where each point is incident to at least 3 lines and each line is incident to at least 3 points. We investigate the existence problem for these quasi-configurations, with a particular attention to 3|4-configurations where each element is 3- or 4-valent. We use these quasi-configurations to construct the first (37_4) and (43_4) configurations. The existence problem of finding (22_4), (23_4), and (26_4) configurations remains open.
