/6. AI & Architecture A.I + ARCHI TECTURE

Design Brief

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force across various industries, and its potential impact on architecture is profound. Rapid advancements in AI present a range of opportunities to revolutionize the field.

My work focuses specifically on the design exploration phase within architectural practice and highlights the application of generative AI. Generative AI has the remarkable ability to augment human creativity by expediting the generation of multiple design alternatives while seamlessly navigating through different architectural styles.

To achieve this, I employed two sub-branches of generative AI: Large Language Models (LLMs) and diffusion models for image generation. By combining these AI models with existing tools, innovative use cases emerged. For instance, it became possible to transform a raw sketch into a realistic visual representation or parametrically convert a mass model into a rendered view. Moreover, by harnessing the power of LLMs, I explored the fascinating realm of AI-assisted conversation to collaboratively create buildings with parametric facades.
