Fabbri is an architect and urban designer, specialized in advanced algorithmic-based technologies and biomimetic design. She studied Architecture at the University of Ferrara and moved overseas for an exchange program with the Universidad Catolica de Cordoba in Argentina. She investigated a contemporary solution to the local planning regulation for the development of a residential urban settlement.

Fabbri completed her Bachelor in Architecture and Master in Architecture and Urban Design cum Laude while working between Genova, Milan, and Paris. Interested in deepening her experience with materials and details, she worked for Kengo Kuma and Associates in Paris, where she participated in the design of the Albert Kahn Museum. After one year of professional experience around Europe, she moved to London to undertake a postgraduate candidature in Emergent Technologies and Design at the Architectural Association. During her studies at the Architectural Association, she developed extensive experience in coding for the development of urban planning strategies in natural risk conditions, as well as for biomimetic design fabrication, along with the capacity to operate with digital and analogue technologies.
