Sabrina’s research explores the intersection of architecture, sustainability, and risk reduction, with a focus on:
- Housing resilience and climate adaptation in hazard-prone contexts
- Life-cycle carbon assessment and low-carbon design strategies
- Bio-based and vernacular building materials
- Participatory and culturally sensitive approaches to design and planning
