Architect and Ph.D., specializing in Sustainable Architecture and Circular Economy.

Her work consists of the creation of new architectural spaces, or the rehabilitation of existing ones, through the valorization of local and natural resources, the respect for the pre-existence and nature, and the reuse of waste and second-hand materials to promote circular economy.

These principles are mainly applied for:

  • New constructions, cabins, naturalistic or public spaces;
  • The regeneration of abandoned or industrial areas;
  • The creation of projects of rural tourism, ecotourism, glamping, and eco-resort.
