Prior to joining Publica, she worked at multi-disciplinary design studio The Decorators and DSDHA where she was involved in a range of commercial and residential projects. In 2016, along with other DSDHA colleagues, Astrid was awarded a two-year Research Fellowship in the Built Environment by the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851.
