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.
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.
What you should already know or have ready before you start, experience, tools, and any baseline skills the instructors expect. Scan the list below so nothing catches you off guard.

Prabhat Arora is a London-based Architect, Designer, and Wellbeing Professional. He holds an exceptional talent endorsement from the Arts Council England. He is a former Architectural Designer at Zaha Hadid Architects and holds a Master’s in Architecture and Urbanism from the Architectural Association Design Research Laboratory: Schumacher Studio. At Zaha Hadid Architects, he was involved with Neom Trojena and Oystra, Marjan Island.
He explored Agent-Based Parametric Semiology for his Master’s Thesis. Prabhat designed and built his first Architectural project at 22 years of age at IIT Madras. His interests lie in Parametricism, Complex Geometry Modelling, 3D printing, and Semiotics. Prabhat has been using Unity, Maya, Grasshopper, Keyshot, and Enscape to develop high-end projects. He has recently been involved in large-scale 3D Printing and is currently working on high-end architectural projects in the Middle East with Kettle Collective.
This workshop Curvilinear Concepts AI Innovation to 3D Modeling was a fun but powerful dive into making graceful, curvy architecture using AI + 3D tools. The flow from prompting shapes in Midjourney to modeling in Rhinoceros 3D and Autodesk Maya felt creative and exciting — you really get to build forms inspired by fluid‑style architecture (kind of like what MAD Architects or Zaha Hadid Architects might sketch).  The live sessions are short (about 8 hours over two days) but the hands‑on work and ability to generate + model your own complex geometry make it a solid start if you want to explore expressive, organic architecture.
awesome!
