SubD Intelligence: Architectural Modeling & AI Rendering

Name: SubD Intelligence: Architectural Modeling & AI Rendering
Price: 85.00 EUR
Availability: InStock

SubD Intelligence is a two-day course on PAACADEMY that teaches SubD modeling in Rhinoceros 3D, real-time visualization in Chaos Enscape, and AI-assisted rendering using ReRenderAI and Gemini. Participants develop a conceptual architectural design from scratch, applying SubD tools to create and refine complex forms, then set up materials, lighting, and camera views in Enscape before using AI tools to elevate the final rendered outputs. The course is suitable for both participants new to SubD and those looking to strengthen their visualization and presentation workflow.

About the Course

This intensive two-day workshop dives into the power of SubD modeling in Rhino, real-time visualization with Enscape, and the integration of AI tools to enhance architectural workflows. Through a blend of theoretical introductions and guided hands-on exercises, participants will develop a conceptual design from scratch, refining complex geometries and producing compelling renderings using cutting-edge tools.

Whether you’re new to SubD or looking to elevate your visualization game, this workshop offers a structured pathway to mastering both form generation and presentation techniques in a short timeframe.

What You Will Learn

Create and edit complex forms using Rhino’s SubD tools
Develop a complete conceptual model through guided exercises
Optimize geometry for rendering and visualization workflows
Set up materials, lighting, and camera views in Enscape
Enhance visual outputs with ReRenderAI and Gemini
Produce polished final renderings ready for presentation

Methodology

The workshop emphasizes hands-on learning through a structured sequence of demonstrations, guided exercises, and individual exploration. Participants will follow a prepared parametric design example, applying SubD techniques step-by-step to build and refine their models.

Key workflows will be demonstrated live, with time allocated for troubleshooting and personalized guidance. Once the geometry is finalized, the focus shifts to visualization, where participants will set up real-time rendering environments and experiment with AI tools to elevate their outputs.

Hi, Thank you so much for the great workshop—it was incredibly insightful and covered a very interesting topic. Fredy was extremely knowledgeable and kind, and I really appreciated how he took the time to answer all the questions. Just one suggestion: I believe workshops like this could be even more engaging if students had the option to join live and interact directly, rather than only participating through the group chat. A live exchange would not only enhance the experience for the students but also give the instructor some real-time energy and feedback, making the session even more dynamic for everyone involved. Overall, this was a very valuable experience, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to take part. Thanks again! Best regards, Amir Daneshfar,

This course introduced me to the fundamentals of how data can be effectively utilized and exchanged between software systems. Despite having very limited coding knowledge, I realized that the barrier to entry has become significantly lower, enabling anyone to explore “vibe coding” and create innovative solutions without requiring extensive technical expertise.

I really enjoyed Carlo Ratti's presentation.

I really enjoyed Carlo Ratti's presentation. I found it very interesting how he connected the evolution of cities with the interaction of strong and weak signals. It was also inspiring to see AI presented as a tool that can support architects by exploring different possibilities through parameters, rather than simply providing answers

Such an inspiring webinar! Fran Silvestre’s approach to rethinking architecture through pure geometry, light, and material integration is truly breathtaking. It was fascinating to see how complex structural challenges translate into such minimalist, elegant forms. Thank you for organizing this insightful session!
