Her study engages with existing literature and employs original archival research carried out at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal and the MAXXI, Rome, and through extensive project site visits in Italy. Sinead was formerly partner in a Design Build studio, where she worked on the renovation of historic buildings in Italian hill villages, engaging with local authorities to bring about regeneration in rural areas.
