In a world where technology and creativity converge, knowing how to transform 3D models into captivating visual narratives is essential for modern architects. This workshop will explore the use of AI tools like Midjourney, Luma AI, and Runway Gen 3 to bring ephemeral architecture and ethereal sculptures to life. Participants will learn to create images from scratch with Midjourney, utilizing pre-prepared 3D models in Grasshopper that will be shared for greater efficiency. Additionally, we will employ Meshy and Hyperhuman to produce 3D models from AI-generated images, allowing students to explore new creative dimensions. By harnessing these technologies, you will uncover the power of visual storytelling in architecture.

Create intricate 3D models using Grasshopper.
Generate and enhance 3D models from Midjourney images with AI tools.
Produce visually striking videos that effectively communicate your architectural vision.

The workshop will include interactive sessions, hands-on exercises, and collaborative projects. Students will work individually and in pairs on their final projects. Key workflows will consist of:

 

  • Modeling in Grasshopper: Creating 3D models.
  • Midjourney Integration: Generating images from scratch and combining them with Grasshopper models.
  • 3D Model Creation: Using Meshy and Hyperhuman to create models from images or prompts.
  • Video Production: Creating engaging videos with Luma AI and Runway Gen 3.

Biography
Arturo del Razo Montiel is an architect and architectural designer specializing in parametric design and the integration of artificial intelligence. As the founder of "Artu_Nreal," his design studio focuses on conceptualizing parametric projects, experimenting with cutting-edge technologies, and merging art with architecture. He holds a Master of Design in Sustainability Architecture from the Politecnico di Torino, Italy, and a Bachelor's degree in Architecture and Landscape Design from BUAP (Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla) in Mexico.2010 Arturo won the prestigious Contest del “Museo del Vino” in Chile. More recently, he completed a series of innovative visual and 3D art mapping projects for artists, with the latest exhibition set to take place at the Museo Internacional del Barroco, designed by the acclaimed architect Toyo Ito. Currently, he is a faculty member in the Architecture Department at IBERO Puebla, where he teaches parametric architecture. His students have also created innovative projects that blend parametric modeling with AI.Arturo has led workshops at various institutions, including the University of Manchester, La Sapienza in Rome, and Istanbul Bilgi University. At SMAC (3D Printing School), he conducted a workshop on integrating AI and 3D printing and facilitated another titled AI Architectural Workflows for Creation Thrill. In March, he participated in AI Day at the University of Manchester, exploring the intersections of AI, architecture, and design innovation.His academic contributions include co-authoring the article "Sustainable Design and Generative AI" for SIGRADI in collaboration with Angelo Figliola, a professor at La Sapienza University who focuses on the intersection of parametric architecture and sustainability. He has also published several other publications on integrating AI into architectural practice. Recognized by AI Architects Magazine as one of the leading architects in artificial intelligence, he has also worked as a conceptual artist with AWA Studios, which is known for its contributions to the comic industry.Arturo's speaking engagements include conferences at the International Interior Design Forum at Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez and "Más Allá de lo Construido" at Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, as well as events across Mexico, Manchester, and Italy. He has judged AI competitions and contributed to the "Constructing Futures" exhibit for the Detroit Month of Design.
