"To
integrate A.I. into architecture is to admit that intelligence itself can become a design material—mutable, iterative, and provocatively indifferent to human tradition."

AI-assisted style transfer enables me to preserve the functional integrity of structures whileinfusingthemwithaestheticcharacteristicsfromdiversearchitecturaltraditions.
In my practice, I leverage architectural style transfer as a design methodology that bridgesprecedentwithfuturepossibility.
Through examining the weight of words in contrast to visual output, I leverage AI to translate abstract design language into evocative imagery, while remaining negotiating with the limitations of my control of the architectural vision within the capabilities of the technology.
Remai Modern is a public art museum in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, designed by Architecture49 in collaborationwithKPMBArchitects.
AI Interpretation of Image using Computer Vision -
Modern architecture with clean, rectilinear forms
Cantilevered volumes, particularly the upper block projecting outward
Glass curtain walls offering full transparency on ground and upper levels
Modular box-like forms arranged asymmetrically
1. Image generated by mnml.ai
2. Image generated by Stable Diffusion
Prompt and thematic elements: a building that mimics the organic growth patterns of coral reefs, integrating fluid, irregular geometries with sustainable materials.
A.I. generated images
Prompt and thematic elements:
1. Permeable surfaces, and rainwater harvesting systems,Biophilic design principles
2. a museum that seamlessly merges with a rocky hillside, using local stone and vegetation to minimize visual impact.
3. flexible spaces that transform for workshops, performances, and leisure.
Urban landscapes offer a space for play and engagement with the natural environment. In this series I explored the possibility to urban settlements at varying scales using A.I. tools while constraining the prominent geometric language of the site

A.I. generated 3D model
By simply describing the distinctive Y-shaped Wishbone Chair, the AI system produced reasonably accurate and well rationalized 3D models in different
This technology bridges the gap between conceptual thinking and technical execution, allowing architects to rapidly iterate designs and explore variations while leveragingtheinformativecapabilitiesofBIMtools.
A.I. generated 3D model loaded into Revit
Image to 3D technology represents a transformative approach in architectural visualization, allowing designers to convert 2D images into fully-realized 3D models.
This process bridges the gap between photographic documentation and spatial understanding, enabling architects to extract dimensional data from photographs of existing structures, conceptualsketches,orsiteanalysis.

Using Autodesk Forma and Evolvelabs Veras, early stage conceptual site layouts and renders are generated i in less than 10 minutes.
This collection explores the fusion of traditionalAfrican furniture archetypes with contemporary parametric processes, creating hybridized forms that honor cultural heritage while embracing forward-thinking design methodologies. ThroughAI-assisted exploration, these pieces reinterpret iconic elements of African craft—intricate geometric patterns, symbolic motifs, and indigenous material practices—within a computational framework. The resulting works exist in a liminal space between handcrafted tradition and algorithmic possibility, challenging conventional categorizations while celebrating the rich design legacy of theAfrican continent.
