Section 1
The big idea
Architects design buildings, but the boring parts — code checks, CAD tweaks, photo-realistic renderings — eat huge chunks of their day. AI is automating those parts so architects can spend more time on actual design.
Some examples
- AI generates 50 facade variations in minutes — the architect picks three.
- AI scans plans for code violations before submission.
- AI turns a hand sketch into a 3D model.
- AI drafts client proposals in plain language.
Try it!
Sketch your dream building on paper. List three things an architect would still need a human eye for.
