Generative AI has shifted the paradigm for architectural design. Text to image and image to video tools like Midjourney and Runway have become increasingly powerful and essential to the daily workflow of architects and designers looking to gain a competitive edge.With this monumental innovation, it is important for designers from all backgrounds to join the conversation in order to create a diverse ecosystem. In this workshop, Aikin Karr will explore the basics of Midjourney, how to get started using it, how it can be incorporated into your current design workflow. Participants can also expect to learn how to engineer prompts that will specify their desired geographical and environmental context and achieve consistent, captivating results that resemble architectural renders.
Generative AI Basics: Understand how tools like Midjourney and Runway are transforming architectural design workflows.
Prompt Engineering: Learn to craft effective prompts for Midjourney to achieve desired geographical and environmental contexts.
Organizing Workflows: Set up a Notion document to streamline your design process and keep track of projects.
Post-Production Techniques: Utilize Adobe Photoshop Beta for image refinement and Runway ML for video editing.
Video Generation: Create engaging video content by compiling images into slideshows using Capcut, following a rhythmic beat.
The workshop covers a simple beginner workflow for using Midjourney text-to-image to create captivating results in the video format. The workflow will be as follows: Notion page builder, tables, and sub-pages to organize work. Midjourney prompt engineering, iteration, variation, selection, and upscaling.Post-production in Photoshop Beta for image editing and refinement via generative fill.Capcut video compilation and editing: images to follow the rhythm of the beat.
This studio will mainly focus on the Midjourney image generator from a beginner level. However, participants will also explore the full design workflow ideal for video generation. This will include but is not limited to, creating a content calendar in Notion, prompt engineering with Midjourney, post-processing with Adobe Photoshop (Beta) and Runway ML, and a brief exploration of emerging trends within the AI Architectural landscape.
How to set up a notion document to organize your workflow? Use the Midjourney Text-to-image generator to engineer prompts specific to their desired geographical and environmental context. Achieve consistent results with Midjourney. Use Photoshop (Beta) to add context or remove noise from their results. Turn their still images into Reel/TikTok video slideshows using Capcut.

About this work
"Exploring Synthetic Vernacular Architecture Through Artificial Intelligence: A Fusion of Tradition and Innovation"
I just finished taking Synthetic Vernacular via Artificial Intelligence from PAACADEMY — and I really enjoyed it! It gave me a simple, beginner‑friendly way to dig into Midjourney, from how to get started to building prompts and weaving generated images into design workflows. I loved how it walked me through setting up a Notion workflow, crafting prompts for specific environments, then polishing output images (with Photoshop) or even turning them into video slideshows. The session was compact (just ~5 hours), but surprisingly packed — by the end I could see real potential to use AI for creative design ideas. If you’re curious about AI‑powered visuals and architecture‑style design, this is a solid intro.
Great workshop to start
Such a good one, many thanks to Studio Aikin and PAAcademy.
