Integrating AI from Concept to Production AI-generated images are everywhere, but do they actually change how architecture is designed? In most practices, AI is still used as a post-production tool. This workshop proposes a different approach: AI as an active design partner, embedded from early research and concept development to geometry, communication, and final presentation. Rather than focusing on image-making alone, the workshop explores how AI reshapes decision-making, iteration, and design thinking. Your Upgrade We move from “AI as renderer” to “AI as design intelligence.” Participants will learn how to integrate AI across: research and reference building concept generation and iteration spatial and formal development storytelling and client communication The goal is not better images, but optimized design processes. What We’ll Work On Part 1 — AI in the Creative ＆ Concept Phase (Midjourney) Building research workflows and AI-assisted moodboards Controlled prompting for style references Version comparison and iterative concept development When to increase chaos, stylization, and weirdness — and why How AI influences design decisions, not just image outcomes Part 2 — AI in Architectural Communication (Claude) Image-to-video and camera prompting Presentation storytelling with AI Animation for competitions Architectural copywriting with a custom Agents How AI enhances spatial and narrative communication Part 3 — From Geometry to Production (ComfyUI) Sketch-to-render and e.g. Rhino viewport-to-render pipelines Render-to-drawing workflows Custom AI Tools for CAD-style output Image-to-3D and text-to-3D Workflow integration around one coherent project example Part 4 — Reflection ＆ Critical Discussion Where does AI fall short? What still requires human judgment? How is authorship changing in architectural practice? How do offices implement AI responsibly?
