design researchROOT CHAIR 2023
The study presents the utilisation of robotic milling fabrication, focusing on residual tree stump. It respectfully reflects on the possible transformation of traditional woodworking craftsmanship to meet the digital and technological demands of the 21st century.

workshop participant   CONCRETE MODULARITY 2023 The concrete industry accounts for 8% of total global CO₂ eq. The architecture and construction industry is faced with adapting to the current climate crisis and 3D printing of concrete may be one possible solution.
Modular exterior public elements encourage socialization, serve both people and nature. Their concrete surface is bioreceptive - structured to trap water, support the growth of local biodiversity and host a variety of organisms.

product design MULTI-FOLDING LAMPSHADE 2020 The lampshade is made from a set of modular plywood components, highlighting the authentic texture of the plywood. The geometry offers the freedom to assemble the components multifunctionally for different purposes. The shape allows the density of the shade to be individually adjusted and the user to regulate the light intensity according to his or her needs.

exhibition architect EXPERIMENTAL INSTITUTE WASHED2019 - present -  The exhibition What is to Modify??? presents the work of queer artists working with personal trajectories of mental development or specific manifestations of mental health, allowing viewers to peer into intimate and sensitive life situations. 

- The aim of the reconstruction of the city underpass in Trenčín is to create a medium through which we will communicate art with the general public. The Gallery in the underpass is a place that shows that art is for everyone.




parametric architectureFOOD AND ARCHITECTURE2022 The construction industry accounts for up to 40% of the human ecological footprint. The food industry accounts for another 20%. Even allowing for some overlap, together these industries are responsible for more than half of humanity's environmental impact. 

The aim is to design a food marketplace from the inside out.  Using computational algorithms, the project explores whether space can enhance human communication and how geometry influences human behaviour.   The project analyses the logic of an ant multi-agent system. It investigates its movement, its ability to cooperate and its affective navigation in space.  The programmed paths become the initial geometry of the market space, the skeleton of its mass

artistic researchTOXIC WATER2023 The project reflects on the role of water in nuclear energy production. Toxic Water follows the ambiguities of water in environments affected by radioactivity where it acquires a dual quality of both protection and  threat, as it offers a false sense of control over processes and substances that are never fully graspable.

artistic researchECONEMESIS2024 The project is based on a hyperbolic prolongation of the present political tendencies in the context of climate change response. Video tells a story of a future eco-terrorist group called EcoNemesis that chooses to accelerate environmental destruction in order to inflict a civilizational collapse and a subsequent rise of a new socio-ecological formation.
