Biography
Kristýna Uhrová is an architect and designer creating physical solutions for digital design. With an interest in experimental and conceptual architecture, connecting architecture, design, spatial installations, and scenography. A graduate of the Faculty of Architecture at Brno University of Technology, where in 2019 she completed her studies and is currently an assistant consultant for Jiří Uran Vítek at the Institute of Experimental Architecture. She is involved in academic projects, publishes, and contributes to the contemporary architectural community, leads workshops on computational design and architecture. In 2019, she also joined the studio Subdigital, a team of architects, designers, and programmers focused on innovation, generative and parametric architecture and design, research, software development, and the creation of interactive art installations. At studio Subdigital originated The project Monoceros, a plug-in for Grasshopper developed by Ján Toth and Ján Pernecký and the rest of the contributors of Subdigital team. The work of Kristýna Uhrová is now focused on its ongoing growth and its application in architectural and design practice. The project Monoceros adapts the mathematical method/algorithm, Wave Function Collapse (WFC). It fills an entire space segment with repeating prefab elements while ensuring they connect properly and are organized according to given rules. Unlike other aggregation methods, it inherently creates interwoven rhizomatic structures. She is inspired by discrete aggregation methods and the ability to precisely control complex patterns of spaces. Together with her colleagues in Subdigital, she strives to apply Project Monoceros to bring novel designing and fabrication methods to the 21st-century creative and architectural industry.
