Introduction of the Workshop

A hands-on workshop exploring how generative AI is transforming architecture. Led by Ar. George Guida, it introduces tools like text-to-image, video-to-video, and 3D AI workflows to help architects reimagine form creation using cutting-edge tech.

What You’ll Learn

• How AI is reshaping architectural design
• Basics of 3D machine learning workflows
• Using AI tools for text/image/video-based ideation
• Combining platforms for efficient design processes
• Turning AI-generated outputs into architectural concepts
• The evolving role of architects in the AI era

Methodology

Participants will work on small-scale design concepts (e.g., houses, pavilions) using AI tools. The course emphasizes practical workflows using open-source platforms, with each student completing their own mini design project.

What You’ll Use

• xFigura – AI ideation platform
• Google Colab – Cloud-based AI scripts
• Blender – 3D modeling software
• AI tools for text-to-image, multiview diffusion, and 3D form reconstruction
