Design tools are evolving faster than ever, and the role of the architect is shifting from form-giver to curator of intelligence. This workshop is a deep dive into Synthetic Architecture Methodology, 25 years of architectural theory and practice, enhanced with AI.
We will explore why the faulty, the sloppy, and the imperfect often reveal more than “beautiful design,” and how to build Second Brains that manage complexity, structure ideas, and support critical decision-making.
Participants will learn how to break down architectural problems into modular components and move from philosophical grounding to simulations, storytelling, and clear visual output.
Construct Second Brains: A digital ecosystem to organize references and ideas
Read Context: Understand what is ugly, faulty, misplaced—and why that matters
Master the Surgery Workflow: Combine all tools into controlled, meaningful illustrations
Create Strong Visuals: Produce intentional architectural imagery with AI
Validate with Data: Use environmental simulations and light BIM to prove feasibility
Software Philosophy: Push tools to their limits, collaborate with technologies, and shape your design environment

Great class and taught me a lot of skills that I will be taking into my day-to-day routine. Highly recommended for those who want to take their visuals up a notch but not devote the required time to get that last 5% of an already great image. Let AI do that for you and spend more time designing and less time tweaking visuals.
Ertuğ was able to represent the life of an architect living with so many new productivity tools. Hopefully, I will continue to be a better architect because of Ozan's logic transfer.
I am very grateful for Ozan Ertug’s time and for the opportunity to learn from their experience that has been absolutely amazing.
