ComfyUI Desktop App Installation Guide

Whether you're new to ComfyUI, a powerful and flexible tool for working with AI image generation workflows, or looking for a smoother installation method, this step-by-step guide is perfect for you.

How to Turn Rhino3D Models into AI Concept Renders with SDXL & ControlNet

Learn how to turn Rhino3D models into AI-driven conceptual renders using ComfyUI, SDXL, and ControlNet.

3D-Printed Wall Systems

This workshop focuses on the design of bespoke, production-ready interior wall systems. Participants will investigate how a simple 2D concept can be translated into a fully articulated 3D textured surface through algorithmic logic.

Generative Architectural Thinking with Midjourney

This Midjourney workshop emphasizes using the generative nature of AI to brainstorm ideas and produce surface, material, lighting, and atmospheric effects. Along the way, we’ll craft prompts, fine-tune parameters, and customize Midjourney to sharpen ideas and enhance your design process.

Design-Tech Talk 10

Step into the future of design innovation with Design-Tech Talk 10, a two-day online event exploring the evolving relationship between architecture, technology, and digital design. Through curated sessions, the event explores how emerging technologies are reshaping creative practice and redefining the future of the built environment.

Parametric Pavilion Design: From Concept to Fabrication

This workshop provides insight into practical design-to-fabrication workflows in Rhino and Grasshopper for the development of small-scale architectural structures. The course is grounded in a bottom-up design approach, in which design emerges from the material system, fabrication methods, and their inherent limitations.

Vibe Coding for Designers: Adaptive Toolmaking

With the proliferation of AI tools, it has suddenly become much easier to communicate your needs to a computer in plain language, rather than machine code. In this workshop, we will discuss how to use AI coding tools to create custom applications, web pages, and one-off Grasshopper tools.

AI City Urban Design in Grasshopper & ComfyUI

The workshop introduces current trends in the use of generative AI in architectural design and answers the questions: why use AI, and what tools can be utilized to create a complex project based on a concept formulated with AI?
