About Karifa

Do you want to design, renovate, or operate buildings capable of meeting the challenges of climate change?

I support local authorities, NGOs, landlords, contracting authorities, architects, and companies in integrating climate resilience, sustainable construction, and adaptation issues into their projects.

My approach goes beyond mere energy performance. I analyze the interactions between the building, its environment, and climate hazards (heatwaves, water stress, floods, thermal comfort, resource availability) in order to guide design, renovation, or operation decisions.

I intervene in particular on:

• analysis of the climatic vulnerability of buildings and territories;
• climate change adaptation strategies;
• bioclimatic design and passive comfort;
• energy performance and consumption monitoring;
• technical and energy audits;
• project owner assistance (POA);
• feasibility studies and decision support.

My dual experience in construction management and the management of a large-scale hospital estate allows me to combine strategic vision, technical expertise, and an understanding of operational constraints.

I aim to support projects that seek to combine resilience, sustainability, performance, and environmental impact.
