In the dynamic landscape of architectural design, the evolution of tools has become increasingly rapid, requiring architects to adapt continuously. From traditional pen-and-paper methods to CAD, to Rhino and SketchUp, to Grasshopper, and for rendering engines like Vray to Enscape, and now the integration of various forms of Artificial Intelligence, the toolkit of architects is in a perpetual state of transformation. The rapid changes in the field necessitate architects to continually learn and enhance their skills.

 

This workshop delves into approaches for architects to incorporate AI tools while retaining command over the design process. By providing practical insights, this workshop will illustrate how to navigate and integrate AI into different phases of the design workflow without overpromising or underdelivering.

AI-Driven Design Integration: Discover how to incorporate AI tools like Midjourney and Stable Diffusion into your design workflow.
Midjourney Prompting: Learn effective prompting techniques to generate creative outputs.
Preparing for Success: Understand how to set up your Rhino model for optimal results with Stable Diffusion.
ControlNet Utilization: Gain insights on using ControlNet for enhanced design capabilities.
Refinement and Presentation: Master post-production techniques in Photoshop and learn to effectively communicate your AI-driven designs to clients and professors.

We will cover a practical approach to implementing Midjourney and Stable diffusion in your own design workflow and how to communicate it to your clients and professors.

 

  • Midjourney prompting.
  • Preparing the Rhino model for SD success.
  • SD prompting and what models to use and integrate.
  • How to use ControlNet.
  • Refining and Post-production in Photoshop.
  • Presenting and communicating AI to the client and professor.

“AI-Driven Design Practice” will cultivate a practical framework for integrating artificial intelligence into the design process. AI can significantly contribute to the overall process from the initial brainstorming phase to the later stages. Participants will gain insights on optimizing their design methodology by strategically incorporating Midjourney and Stable diffusion in the Creative design process. Join us in exploring the transformative impact of AI on design, elevating your approach with precision and innovation.
 

Stable Diffusion Recomended Models (also copyable from the drive may just be slower)

 

  • EPIC REALISM: https://civitai.com/models/25694?modelVersionId=143906
  • DREAM SHAPER: https://civitai.com/models/4384/dreamshaper
  • ARCHITECTURE REAL MIX: https://civitai.com/models/84958/architecturerealmix

 

In the alternative, participants can use Stable Diffusion on a server relying on RunDiffusion. which is a platform focused on the Stable Diffusion model, charging based on server rental time and the number of models used (it supports ControlNet).
