Introduction of the workshop:

Step into the Flux Era where cutting-edge AI models are transforming the way we design and visualize architecture.

This two-day intensive workshop will focus on equipping architects, designers, and visual artists with the skills to fully harness the power of the Flux model suite within ComfyUI.

This workshop will teach you how to move from fast ideation to highly controlled, stylistically rich outputs creating architectural imagery that is not only visually stunning but also technically adaptable and deeply responsive to design intent.

Whether your goal is to generate mood boards, develop intricate facades, or build immersive environments, this workshop will teach you how to integrate advanced AI tools into your creative process for next-level architectural storytelling.

What You’ll Learn?

Generate architectural images using the full Flux model suite in ComfyUI.
Build fast text-to-image workflows with Flux Schnell.
Apply LoRAs and image references for custom styles.
Guide designs with ControlNets and refine using flux fill.
Combine tools into advanced, flexible workflows.
Edit images with text and visuals using Kontext Dev.
Create animated architectural videos with Kling AI.
Turn 2D images into 3D models using Hunyuan 2.5.

Methodology:

This workshop will provide architects with a comprehensive mastery of the Flux model suite, moving from foundational text-to-image to complex, multi-conditional workflows.

The workshop focuses on leveraging the unique capabilities of each Flux variant to achieve unparalleled control, quality, and efficiency in architectural concept generation, refinement, and translation into dynamic video and 3D forms.

Program: 

Day 1: Flux Foundations & Core Architectural Techniques (4 Hours)

Focus: Building a deep understanding of the core Flux models and mastering the essential techniques for image generation, control, and refinement in an architectural context.

Hour 1: Introduction to the Flux Era & Core Generation

Presentation: The Diffusion Architect 3.0 – Why the Flux Era?

  • Overview of the Flux architecture: What makes it a paradigm shift from previous models (speed, efficiency, transformer base).

  • Introduction to the specific Flux variants and their roles:

    • schnell (speed)

    • dev (quality/control)

    • fill (utility)

    • kontext dev (multimodality)

Text-to-Image with flux schnell

  • Creating a foundational text-to-image workflow in ComfyUI.

  • Exploring the speed and characteristics of flux schnell for rapid architectural ideation and concept development.

  • Prompting strategies tailored to schnell's behavior.

Tool Focus: ComfyUI, flux schnell.

Hour 2: Image-to-Image & Foundational Control

Image-to-Image with flux schnell

  • Adapting the workflow for img2img tasks.

  • Understanding key parameters (denoise) for stylistic transfer and refinement.


Image-to-Image + ControlNets with flux dev

  • Introducing flux dev for higher-fidelity outputs.

  • Integrating ControlNets: Why flux dev is often preferred for controlled workflows.

Architectural Control Tools: flux canny + flux depth

  • Practical application of canny (from sketches/line drawings) and depth (from simple 3D massing) using flux dev workflows.

Tool Focus: ComfyUI, flux schnell, flux dev, ControlNet (canny, depth).

Hour 3: Advanced Direction & Stylistic Influence

Deep Dive into flux loras

  • Understanding how LoRAs are implemented and interact specifically with Flux models.

  • Sourcing, applying, and weighting architectural LoRAs for targeted stylistic control (e.g., Brutalism, Biophilic design, specific material palettes).

Image Referencing with flux redux (IPAdapter)

  • Mastering image-to-image referencing workflows for consistent style, mood, and compositional guidance.

  • Balancing prompt, LoRA, and redux influences.

Tool Focus: ComfyUI, flux dev, Flux-compatible LoRAs, flux redux (IPAdapter).

Hour 4: Essential Utilities & Image Finalization

Corrective Inpainting with flux fill

  • Introduction to flux fill for seamless inpainting and outpainting.

  • Architectural use cases: Refining details, removing unwanted artifacts, extending canvases, and targeted design modifications.

High-Resolution Upscaling with flux dev

  • Techniques for upscaling generated images for presentation while preserving detail and coherence, using workflows centered on flux dev.

Day 1 Wrap-up & Q&A

  • Review of the core Flux workflows and techniques covered.

  • Open Q&A session.

Day 2: Advanced Combinations, Multimodality & Dimensional Leaps (4 Hours)

Focus: Synergizing the learned techniques into complex workflows, exploring multimodal generation, and translating 2D masterpieces into dynamic video and 3D forms.

Hour 1: The Combinational Workflow – Total Control

Building the Ultimate Architectural Workflow

  • This hour is dedicated to constructing a complex, synergistic workflow from the ground up.

  • Layering multiple techniques for maximum creative control:

    • flux dev as the base

    • Conditioned by multiple ControlNets (flux canny, etc.)

    • Guided by flux redux referencing

    • Stylized by flux loras

  • Strategies for organizing and managing complex ComfyUI graphs.

  • Live demonstration: Creating a highly detailed and specific architectural scene using the full combinational workflow.

Tool Focus: All Day 1 tools combined.

Hour 2: Multimodal Generation with flux kontext dev

Exploring the Frontier: Multimodal Interaction

  • Deep dive into flux kontext dev: Understanding its unique ability to process both image and text prompts simultaneously for in-context editing and generation.

Demonstrating powerful use cases:

  • Style Transfer: "Make this photorealistic image look like an anime sketch."

  • Object/Subject Tweaks: "Change the building material from concrete to timber."

  • Text Editing: "Change the sign on the building to say 'Library'."

  • Comparing flux kontext dev to traditional inpainting and img2img methods.

Tool Focus: ComfyUI, flux kontext dev.

Hour 3: Image-to-Video with Kling AI

Bringing Architecture to Life

  • Taking high-quality images generated from the combinational or multimodal workflows and translating them into video.

  • Workflow and best practices for preparing images for Kling AI.

  • Exploring Kling's capabilities for creating dynamic camera movements, atmospheric effects, and short architectural fly-throughs.

Tool Focus: Kling AI; ComfyUI (for source image preparation).

Hour 4: The Final Dimension – Image-to-3D

Image-to-3D with Hunyuan 2.5

  • The final leap: Using refined 2D images as a source for 3D model generation.

  • Introduction to Hunyuan 2.5: Capabilities, ideal input characteristics, and workflow.

  • Step-by-step process of generating a 3D model from a selected architectural image.

Assessing & Integrating the 3D Output

  • Critical analysis of the generated 3D model's geometry, texture, and suitability for architectural conceptualization.

  • Brief overview of potential next steps (e.g., cleanup in Rhino/Blender).

Final Remarks & Future of Flux

  • Recap of the entire Flux ecosystem journey.

  • Discussion on the future trajectory of generative AI for architects.

  • Final Q&A session.

Tool Focus: Hunyuan 2.5
