With a background in architecture and interior design, emerging leader in sustainable design and the Green Star Program Lead at the Green Building Council of Australia, Gabrielle Pavicic is helping reshape how the built environment approaches sustainability — particularly at the fitout level, where waste and embodied carbon have long been overlooked. 

Her work bridges design thinking with technical delivery, driving measurable change across buildings and infrastructure. 

She’s also the winner of the Emerging Sustainable Architect/Designer category at the 2025 Sustainability Awards, hosted by Architecture & Design.

In this interview, she explores her journey, insights, and what’s next for a more regenerative built environment.
