Q: What does AI-Driven Retail Architecture: From Animation to Construction cover at PAACADEMY?

AI-Driven Retail Architecture by Rolando de la Cruz is an 8-hour beginner course across 10 lessons covering: fundamentals of retail architecture design including spatial flow, visual merchandising and brand-aligned spatial planning; professional 3D retail modeling; and Midjourney 7.0 for generating early-stage conceptual imagery for retail design proposals.

Question 1

What is Meshy and how is it used in architectural design?

Accepted Answer

Meshy is an AI tool for generating 3D models from text descriptions or reference images, producing 3D mesh geometry without conventional modeling workflows. In architectural design, it is used for rapid concept-stage asset generation including furniture, fixtures and environmental objects. At PAACADEMY, it is taught in AI-Driven Retail Architecture: From Animation to Construction by Rolando de la Cruz, covering retail architecture design, 3D retail modeling and Midjourney 7.0.

Question 3

When would an architect use Meshy instead of modeling a 3D object manually?

Accepted Answer

Meshy is suited for rapid concept-stage asset generation when exact geometry control is less important than speed: background scene objects, furniture and fixture references, design exploration variants and presentation context elements. For construction documentation, fabrication or precise dimensional modeling, manual modeling in Rhino, Revit or SketchUp produces more reliable and controllable output.
