Your commitment to advancing architectural innovation seamlessly aligns with the enriching experiences that these workshops promise to deliver. Stay tuned for more information on how you can fully unlock your creative potential and embark on an exciting journey of design exploration in March.
Environment-Reactive Computation (with Ladybug)
The workshop aims to develop quick sketch designs that use methods that can be infinitely scalable via list structure, then apply our approach to a sizable theoretical building with surrounding context to create a system that can adapt to environmental and other contextual factors like program and panel height. Using specific list structure techniques and grasshopper plugins like Ladybug, attendees not only learn how to create reactive systems for a single variable but also for a multivariate design system that can be tweaked to develop unique environmental responses.

AI-Augmented Creative Workflows
The workshop will focus on connecting AI tools with and augmenting a variety of mediums—analog and digital. Participants will have demonstrated and practiced several techniques in MidJourney to develop their design ideas and generate visually compelling design imagery. Along the way, they will learn about many of the settings in MidJourney that can help us iteratively work through an idea and integrate it into your creative processes.
- Topic: AI-Augmented Creative Workflows: Generative Techniques
- Instructor: Joshua Vermillion
