As founder and director of Estudio Abadi, she has coordinated interdisciplinary teams working on urban plans, technical advisory processes, and housing strategies, collaborating with local governments and public institutions on medium- and long-term initiatives.

Housing and the city

Abadi approaches housing as a structural component of the urban system. Her work emphasizes location, access to services, connectivity, and regulatory frameworks, deliberately avoiding isolated or peripheral solutions. She has participated in social housing and urban regeneration programs that integrate land policy, infrastructure, and public space, aiming to produce sustainable urban fabrics.

Her role as director involves strategic planning, cost control, and impact evaluation, applying management tools typically associated with the private sector to projects of public interest. This combination strengthens the operational viability of urban initiatives with explicit social objectives.

Public engagement and vision

Beyond professional practice, Abadi participates in public debates and academic spaces related to urban development and housing. Her perspective promotes evidence-based decision-making, land-use regulation, and integrated planning. She conceives the city as social infrastructure that organizes access to opportunities and rights. From this strategic standpoint, her influence is expressed through the construction of technical and policy frameworks aimed at reducing urban inequalities in a sustained and systemic manner.
