Introduction of the workshop:

In this workshop students will learn how to create curvilinear architectural forms similar to those designed by MAD Architects and Zaha Hadid Architects (for reference only). We will be using generative artificial intelligence to create these forms and then use a 3D modeling tool to create a unique geometry. We will prompt crafting using Midjourney V6 or lower to develop sophisticated and complex building design concepts. Through an iterative process, we will arrive at our desired results, which can be highly iterative for precise outcomes. Examples of projects that we will work on include a high-density housing complex, a Google campus, etc.

What You’ll Learn?

Craft Effective Prompts: Create sophisticated architectural forms using Midjourney.

Extract Geometry: Translate AI-generated images into unique 3D models.

3D Modeling Skills: Utilize Autodesk Maya and Rhinoceros for curvilinear designs.

High-Quality Rendering: Render your models with Enscape or Keyshot, including scale figures.

Collaborative Workflow: Work in groups to develop various project components, enhancing teamwork and creativity.

Curvilinear Concepts AI Innovation to 3D Modeling

Methodology:

Students will work in groups in this workshop
The students will be given a general tutorial on prompt crafting for Midjourney and then given time to generate attractive, complex, and sophisticated forms on Midjourney, most likely a large-scale architectural project. Each student can focus on developing different project parts, such as façade, interiors, furniture, lighting, textures, etc.
Participants will then be given a basic introduction to Maya and Rhinoceros initially to get the hang of the tool with a specific form, procedural 3D Modelling from a primitive polygon, or using Rhino/Grasshopper to generate the form.
After that, the exercise will be combinatorial, using the generated form and replicating/altering it on the 3D Modelling tool.
The students will also receive a basic tutorial on rendering their images using Enscape or Keyshot.
Each group will be given time to discuss ideas and divide their work individually.

This workshop aims to use Midjourney to create fluid or curvilinear shapes ranging from the scale of individual products to entire cities.

Once we’ve generated the desired form, we’ll replicate or modify it using programs such as Autodesk Maya, Rhinoceros, and Grasshopper. Finally, depending on the product size, we will render the design using either Enscape or Keyshot. Throughout the process, we will ensure that our geometry is clean, easy to handle, and suitable for 3D printing.
