AI has changed the way we create, turning imagination into stunning visuals in seconds. But how do we take those ideas beyond just images and into real-world architecture? With AI tools evolving rapidly, the potential for integrating them into architectural design is greater than ever.
This course will be led by Studio Tim Fu, with Tim Fu and three of the studio’s leads teaching the fundamentals of design, scripting, parametric modeling, and rendering with AI. Together, we’ll explore how these tools can work in harmony to develop a strong creative vision and bring architectural concepts to life. Whether you're looking to refine your skills or rethink your approach to design, this course will give you the hands-on knowledge to confidently integrate AI and parametric tools into your creative process.
Master AI techniques in architectural design
Integrate JavaScript and parametric modeling tools
Create realistic visuals using AI rendering
Generate AI animations for architectural concepts
Explore real-world AI workflows at Studio Tim Fu
We’re back with Tim Fu and Studio Tim Fu, launching an all-new course module designed to push the boundaries of AI-driven architectural design. This time, Tim Fu and three of the studio’s leads will guide participants through a comprehensive, hands-on workflow that bridges concept design with AI, parametric modeling, and visualization techniques.
Participants will start by mastering advanced Midjourney techniques to transform their ideas into strong design concepts. They will then explore parametric architecture and scripting using JS5 and LLM, learning how to rationalize designs and generate 3D models with precision. From there, they’ll dive into rendering with Magnific and Krea, crafting highly realistic visuals. Finally, they’ll bring their designs to life using Kling and Runway to create animations and develop a cohesive, fully realized architectural concept.
In addition to developing technical and practical AI skills, participants will gain exclusive insight into the innovative workflows at Studio Tim Fu. They’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at the real-world projects we’re working on, learning how AI and parametric tools are shaping architectural practice today. This is a unique opportunity to see how these cutting-edge techniques are being applied to actual architectural projects.

Mindblowing techniques, nice workshp!
Great session
Insightful, packed course. Great strategies, great explanation. State of the art.
Very insightful and inspiring. this new workflow is somewhat challenging but exciting at the sametime. Is it time to say good bye to rendering softwares?
eye-opening experience!
very nice workshop
Great Workshop! Love the new things that I learned!
The workshop was great and the team was amazing. Learned so much in so little time.
The Team was incredible and I learned so much in such a short time!
Great Team and Workshop , thank you
Parametric Intelligence 2.0 workshop by Studio Tim Fu was exceptional: hands-on, expert-led, exploring AI-assisted parametric design, p5.js modeling, intuitive UI, Midjourney rendering, and Runway video editing. Transformative and fun!
Everything was awesome. I liked it very much and I am looking forward to subscribing to the next workshops.
Excellent course. Top notch instructors, all experts in the industry. Will be looking forward to future courses in PA Academy.
Fantastic course. Very informative, top-notch instructors from the industry. Will definitely be on the lookout for other lessons.
Awesome course :)
It was a great workshop, really enjoyed it. Workshops are a bit long (4hours). I loved the fact that we had one week to work on what we learned the first weekend.
Studio Tim Fu thank you very much for the knowledge, innovation and mind-expanding approach you bring to this world. This course was truly eye-opening and incredibly inspiring! Please keep shining your light on the world!
