Excellent video, as a Landscape Architect at the end of my career, I see this as a tool that is now out of the box and its knowledge of its existence cannot be denied. In our industry, I can see packages of work of each phase no longer taking 2 weeks for a lead and two other designers/CAD operatives, but two days for one designer. We will become an industry of interpretation of what works for the needs of people within space/place and environmental considerations. A lot more meetings concerning design, and prompt engineering, less on functional (ie Ai doing all the CAD structural drawings) rules bound construction drawings.
Here is the prompt for ChatGPT Please create a table that breaks down an interior architecture photograph composition into the following key elements, where each of these key elements is a column: Composition, Camera Angle, Style, Room Type, Focal Point, Textures, Detail, Color Palette, Brand, Lighting, Location, Time of Day, Mood, Architecture
pretty cool man. As an Architect (studied from 1998-2003 in Mexico), this is pretty interesting to blend the traditional paper-pencil tools with the contemporary AI and get the best of both worlds :)
Great video as always, this channel needs more recognition, video shows the effort and interest that you are putting in. As for the topic of it, to be honest as a very young architect just starting after a degree that taught us other stuff, not even preparing us with the reality that was known before and now that we are dealing with even newer things it is really frightening and kinda existential to be honest xd. It really needs some things to be organized and established for me at least to cope with it. Like Heidegger said about humans categorizing the world so that they can understand it and feel safe to live/dwell on it, its kinda the same now for me and i am in the process of finding understanding into the AI thing that is being implemented to our lives not only to architecture as a job. I really like how confident and positive you are about this and the courage you have to understand it and work with it as it is even now that its kinda chaotic about the rules and stuff. Thanks for sharing Steve!
Using your own images to create a new one with the blend function is a very promising tool. It avoids copyright issues and still uses this incredible technology to forge a new image from existing material. I would say it's the most interesting tool of AI generative algorithms for true creatives.
I agree! I think the most interesting thing is using your own work to create new images. Its interesting to see how an AI trained model sees your work and how you can describe it as well. Hence the "describe" feature
@@ShowItBetter Definitely. Can't wait to see how it progresses! Especially in adding more controls, like editing only some parts of the image, or setting image weight when blending two.
To me, the problem with AI in Archviz is the consistency between images, its hard to achieve and complicated to integrate in a workflow with clients feedbacks and changes and all. It's more of a cool way to make a moodboard than a real production HD render. But curious to see where this is going in the next few months.
I agree! that is what happens with the current state of AI, but I think this will be a thing of the past in a few months. Also, each image generated by midjourney has a specific seed and ID, and if you repeat that ID when changing words, you will get the same (or almost the same) project/image
@@ShowItBetter I'm waiting for the moment when AI will be integrated in render engines or 3D software with recognition of faces/textures and details. That will be the game changer in our field
@@Zarakla this will surely happen, but eventually AI will reach a point where it doesn't need us anymore. It will have the entire detailed knowledge of any creative process.
@@Hadi2360 Yes and No, Technical detail and rules yes, not the artistic part and the ability to choose between different options. Our jobs will be to guide IA toward the result we want, not the opposite.
I am from the era where we used to make manual drafting and sketching, I hooked up to CAD and 3D in the late 80s and early 90s when Architecture and Interior design took a new turn in how we used to design, we are in a similar situation with this AI Midjoourney, Bing/create, Dall E. I started using it in Jan 2022, it was very basic, and I did not get the desired results, now this has come a long way and the results are far better, not too far away, when prompt-driven commands would be integrated into 3D and CAD software too. That would be real interesting, let's enjoy this phase of AI. I am loving it.
When I was at design school we used Rotring ink pens on tracing paper which took forever. You worked on a drawing board and created perspectives using vanishing points lol. While I'm glad I learnt those techniques, I love and embrace all the new technologies. The time it saves and the insane quality of the output and the fact that you can try so many different iterations of an idea is game changing. I am super excited to get onboard this new AI evolution in the design industry. I'm 60 years old but I never want to stagnate or fall behind or become fixed in my ways. Bring it on I say lol, evolve or die.
Ah, yes. the two point perspective. That took me back. Complete with the makeshift architecture table, Im doing it with two thick treads, two wheel for rollers, one long ruler, and a triangular ruler. Those cool architect tables with fancy light is expensive. Then the multiple style of shading for the facades. small dotting that takes up the whole weeks, or thin lines that obscure other detailing. Fun stuff. My architecture teacher also forbade me to use CAD programs. All need to be done by pencils, then finish them up with multiple thickness of those Rotrings. A wall needs to be shortens by a couple inches? Redraw those multiple A2 pages of drawings. Today, my staff just need to press one button to render the stuff, and using library of template cads for new designs. The hardwork of two months with old style are getting done with couple of works today techs. Even down to my colleagues in civil engineering and project managements. They cant work without the help of stuff like Etab calculation or BIM. Its simply shortens the amount of work so we can efficiently handle many other stuff. I cant imagine what the future hold with cloud computing, AI concepting, VR realism, and many other stuff.
Perfect tool for creating mood boards and very initial concepts. I don't think the construction industry will ever trust a floor plan or construction drawing made by AI. Ultimately, It's a tool to streamline our workflow.
I agree! With the state of Midjorney today. But if this has happened in a few months, I can't imagine what will happen in a few years. There are already 3d software like Spline where you type in what you want and AI will generate it. So, eventually it's going to get better to the point where we won't even notice. AI in 3d software, AI in rendering software, AI in Post production software....
@@ShowItBetter I do believe AI will indeed be eventually be used to create building floor plans. Once given the set parameters and rules of building codes, build area, floor limitations, required installations, it would make complete sense for AI in the near future to generate entire buildings floor plans (even at construction resolution), sections and elevations, within the set parameters relevant to your project and state, in seconds to minutes. It wouldn't be an image generator necessarily, but would be capable of generating every single building element in a way that would be ready to build, relevant to your local building codes. This would likely be a hybrid of fuzzy-logic, with flexible and inflexible parameters, combined with genuine AI.
@@jacobcurran7529 regarding the floor plans, i think us architects already possess powerful tools like grasshopper where we input our parameters and get proper generative plans , ( finch3d ). Which is why I think the industry will lean heavily towards parametric generative architecture rather than luck based AI. I may be horribly wrong, truly exciting times but I think we still have a few years to save our profession.
@@dududadadede96 Yes, I do agree with you. It is also fairly unlikely that a client is going to want to be radically surprised by a randomly generated floor plan. Perhaps we'll end up with a few cool tools that incorporate a touch of AI, to make our work-flow a tad more speedy.
@@jacobcurran7529 what do you mean by surprised? as far as i see a layout programs cannot develop in more than 5-6 design proposals and more often there is 1-2 that are superior by their efficiency. i dont see how it can surprise a client more than an ordinary plan.
If Ai achieves a level of complexity where it could analyze and consider each and every accumulated data from zoning, site analysis, land use and topography, human anthropometrics, structural design, availability of specifications and materials, available tech, psychology, project management and master planning, etc, etc... while customizing to the client's requirements and taste then yeah maybe in the more distant future, but this is by no means near the surface of what architects deal with.. I'm also an architect btw so I didn't just google these things up, but I can see how this tech can absolutely assist in the design process..
I love architecture, do different design work, and mid journey has been amazing since I don't have to spend the learning curve on the software to create something pretty close to what I want. Just wish it understood more, but I'm sure I'll wish the opposite soon lol
To me, there are many issues with this AI (Machine Learning), but most of them are going to the people who develop and the people who miss use it. As mentioned in another comment, comparing this to websites such as Pinterest, which makes everybody a designer, Boy I can tell you how many contractors that hire me don't even use an Architect, because, 'They can design'. As an Arch Viz artist, I've seen our industry hit many times by new technologies that are cool and all but the people misused always for a quick profit. Today everyone is a rendering person. most of them are really bad, but since the invention of Computer generated images, all these images lost their value instantly. If you are an Architect and want to copy someone else design, I mean get inspiration from someone else, yes, this tool is great. it can fill your brain with 1000 copies of someone else work. Then why do you need to be creative?, and push your boundaries when the software can do it for you. I don't know. Yea, I am not excited in the right way for this. for sure, I will learn it and use it, But paying money to a company that has sweatshops in some poor countries using very low pay workers for data entry and entry and content review to make better software that will take all weight to something that was hand made, feels weird to me, I guess I could say the same of the Car, the telephone, the computer and so on. yea, we pay a price for advancing technology, for sure. You know I started following your channel just for the craft you showcase, the way you combine software and techniques to create something different and unique. How you had a 'vision or inspiration' in your brain and try to express it in different media (Which is very different to what mid-journey or any AI does) . Your work and the way to create is inspiring, and that earns mines and many other people's respect. This AI future seems plain and none inspiring for sure, to me at least.
You made a valid point with your words.(AI) I dislike it and am terrified of it since I am an architect. Where do the ideas come from? They want to slack off the brain. The architect's design concept now has that as its new objective.
Yes I agree. The point of an architect is to have a human being interpret your needs and actually (in theory) create something new and innovative. With this technology, a developer can create floor plans in 5 minutes, make super attractive renders, and build a building that makes them a ton of money and does nothing in terms of architecture. These tools seem to allow non-designers to feel like architects because they create the same looking final product as an architect would create, but it almost seems soul-less...which would make sense considering it is AI. Also just the concept of inputting a prompt where you have to specify what kind if already existing style you want it in inherently removes the ability to innovate and find your own voice as a designer. The scary part is when developers consider that what AI can create is good enough for them to build a building and make a quick buck. Will save them lots of money on hiring an architect for the design, and they'll have a building that looks decent. 🤷🏽♂️
Curious to learn how we can load specific SketchUp/Revit models and real-world site photography into these programs to create ACCURATE on-site renderings...
I like how the videos insinuate that architecture and interiors are not based on plans. As an Archviz designer, I can tell you that precision is crucial for creating these visuals, and you must follow the plans of the architects. Most of my clients request private competition images, so sharing confidential plans with an AI isn't possible and would be highly unprofessional. Adding an organic pillar that doesn't serve the structure of the building is not architecture. Also, the visuals made on Midjourney have all the same kind of style, not any soul. The goal of an image during an architecture competition is to stand-out and to explain perfectly the concept. The realism is not always the final goal. Please stop saying that this is art. A designer, a painter or an architect fully controlled everything, on Midjourney you have zero controlled and everyone
I'm just embracing MJ as a creative tool. I'm no architect and I shoot houses for the living. And this helps me to dream up the kind of design that I loved
Super excited about what's to come! 🎉 feel like it will be a tool...just like photoshop didn't put photographers out of business but gave them a tool to make their photos even better
Photoshop does not generate images, as of now, only edits them so could never put photographers out of business. Ai Generates images, mostly by stealing original artists work and re mashing them, & will put photographers in certain niches out of work.
Loved this video. Those who understand how to best leverage these tools will understand that AI is actually opening the doors to help reach our full creative potentials as designers rather than being a threat to our namesake. Would love to see how you utilize ChatGPT throughout your workflow as well!
Full creative potential? When you design something (At least meaningful design) every color, shape, light, scale, orientation, lay out, etc. has a meaning, unless your intention is randomness. Mid journey steals parts from the work of others and puts them together for you to think or work less. AI is a tool for now but it is advancing in a pace never experienced in human history and will be able to do all what we do, faster and better and won't need human interaction to operate. It is going to create generations of talentless, vain and unskilled designers, artists and creators. A pencil, a ruler, paper, talent and knowledge were the tools utilized by the architects who transformed the world.
Thanks for your input Luis! I think history has taught us that we shouldn't push away technological advancements or think of them as doom. Just a few decades back this exact same conversation was being made with computers, then with 3d rendering engines, then with real time rendering engines, now it's AI. We have to adapt to the tools at hand and use them as creatively as possible, we are still the ones typing the words, pressing the buttons, talking to clients, etc. The tools are just changing...
@@luismacias1554 Well you’re entirely correct. AI in its current state generates images, not designs. But design is also inherently an iterative process. The rate at which machines can iterate on both quantitative and qualitative design parameters is infinitely faster than even the world’s greatest minds on paper. The eventual goal should be a symbiotic relationship between the creative potential of our human mind supplemented with the computational and analytical power of machines to optimize and explore design options!
@@luismacias1554 its just another tool in the shed. As you mention colors, what exactly do you mean? Surely not the exact mix of right pigments and binders to achieve a desired color for the specific material. That's already done by others with endless amounts of work hours over the millenia of evolutionary process, and you're just picking from premixed paints. AI is a similar process.
@@ShowItBetter A tool is an extension of our body or brain, an instrument, a tool is designed for specific tasks, it doesn't learn by itself or replace human expression. AI might be a tool now, but it won't be for long, greed, naivety and sociopathy will drive it to the destruction of the core of human experience and expression, it is already doing it with all the polarization and division created in social media (it was suppose to connect people, ha). Typing words, pressing buttons and talking to clients won't be necessary since the only thing they will need to do is to spell some words and AI programs (companies currently developing) will immediately create lay outs and designs according to local codes, bylaws and construction methods, for what we have seen so far AI will learn all that with out the need of coding or direct input from us. I am an architect with my own practice and I know for a fact that utilizing AI will make my practice more efficient and organized and won't need to hire new grads or designers just out of schools or universities to train or mentor, it will be just too unconvininent .
The public should remember that real architects are not just renderers...They create code-compliant sets of drawings from which a building for a client can be built. These drawings must adhere to building codes and zoning regulations often unique to the town or county a project is in. Omitting even a small dimension from a handrail or window can result in a costly change ordered over which an architect can get sued. Material science and the detailing of complex material systems that will last, not leak, survive the test of time, and not fail for a variety of reasons is an absolutely vital skill that an architect must bring to the table. Not only that, but the climate in which an architect is building will inform numerous iterations of how details are drawn and buildings are designed on technical and structural levels. Anyone who thinks this is outside of their purview as an architect is not an architect, but rather merely a designer or artist. That is fine, but let's not confuse someone who only knows how to conceptualize and render buildings with someone who is an architect that can actually deliver a built work to a client. Architecture is not a rendering of a curvy glass building in a field. If AI can help us speed up the conceptual and visual aspects of the design and drawing process then great. I used to absolutely hate the amount of time that had to get dedicated to producing professional grade renderings for commercial clients. If you didnt have time and sub-contracted it out it was very expensive and ate up your design fee. I know times have changed but just imagine that an older person like me is actually JEALOUS of AI, not scared or grumpy about it. But I'm not at all worried about AI taking our jobs. I think it will make them much easier and allow us to put energy into the aspects of project delivery that we want to instead of some of the tedious things that we all used to work 80hrs a week to try and finish.
A lot of junior level architecture work is about toilet partitions and hardware schedules. At the moment this is just a wet dream, great for ideas and conversations, but don't /imagine that it will coordinate structure, services and energy use with building regulations and local materials.
Eventually, an Architect has to produce drawings with detailed dimensions. I can see the advantage of using Midjourney for generating potential concepts abbe interiors. Thanks for the introduction.
Interior designer, artist and educator here. I use Midjourney for generating images across architecture, interior design, and graphic design applications. I have my own way of using it, but I love learning how other people use it and what's been working for them. Loved your video. Thank you :)
Thanks for this video.... have to admit all this sh*t is really unsettling for me! If Pinterest made every client a 'designer', I can only imagine what this will do once it improves / becomes more mainstream.
Es brutal bro... llevo años trabajando con Archviz y trato de estar atento a lo que va saliendo en cuento a IA.... pero esto va muy rápido y a veces es abrumador tanta info. Gracias por compartir y enseñar de tu experiencia...
Great video! Could you please share some of the prompts of the images you generated? It would be a great help with understanding how Midjourney works and how to get better precision of the results.
Copyright be damned, Oscar Niemeyer mentioned in this video, Zaha Hadid in several other Video prompts. These people gave their life and personal time to hone their skills.
Amazing video Steven! Experiencing with Midjourney for my designs gave me great concept ideas, however can I suggest maybe you can release a video about inspiring a design and creating 3D model like Tim Fu from Zaha Hadid Architects? Thank you!
In the creative field our jobs are never secure, for sure the pace is quickening every year. I remember complaining when I was doing my master's in architecture that the new 1st years had it easy because the programs had gotten stronger. I remember using Lumion when it first came out and how trash it was; now it's completely changed. That said, I can't complain, I can only keep up and not be left behind. We have to adapt are there are those that are starting to figure out where AI cannot compete and are driving more in the conceptual realm of design where AI is less refined and harder to control. One way I've seen this is designers modeling architecture in a 3D software and then putting an image into Midjourney to do the render. I guess the other thing here is that very few firms actually do creative work, I don't think creativity is jeopardized in any way because consumerism already dictates such lackluster design. Go outside and count the amount of creative architecture that you see. From my window all I see is basic commercial buildings. Some of you may be lucky to live in an architecturally rich area, but most don't. All in all, just because more people can create design does not mean we are out of a job. It just means that there are more designers out there (yes I use the word design because it's a word that cannot be hoarded by few since it it is so broad), but I can assure you, there will still be a big difference between someone who can use an AI program, and someone who has been trained to design through school an experience and can the use AI as a tool rather than a dictator. This will show in the quality of the work. Creativity is never a problem of technology but rather our own inclination to what is cheap, easy, and fast, this has always been the case.
I have a specific query about using AI tools for interior design. If I have a 2D plan of a working office space, is it possible to use AI tools to create a furnishing design for that space? Also, do these tools help transform inspiration images created by midjouney into workshop drawings and scales?
Thanks for giving a detailed Tutorial on ways we could use Midjourney. I didnt knew that midjourney can do these things like blending of images, etc. and also love this video and you content. Thanks for creating such informative videos, I would also try to generate some images for the concept of my this semester project.🥰🥰
thanks Nikhil! Glad you liked it. There are more indepth features you can use with midjourney that hopefully I can cover in the future. Good luck on your semester project!
What is the prompts I need to use in midjourney to recreate an old black and white picture of a building with low resolution in a realistic color picture with hi res? I mean to have the exact picture fixed. And once is in the system, what about to get this building and put another point of view from another part of the street? Can you do that? How? Thank you very much!
Thank you so much, Steven! I've been using MJ for several months, but I really appreciate the tips for implementing it more deeply in my workflow. I was wondering when a feature like /describe would come out!
Can i use a basic revit/archicad 3D model to generate photorealstic render ? I usualy do it on 3DS or blender but it takes a lot of time and i dont have that time for small project like houses or such ...
Thank you for the video! The only question that keeps bothering me is what you do with the actual measurements when you start building your projects? These are high quality renders, yet they are still just beautiful visuals, what about the actual technical architectural side of it?
That's the big question! haha, for now this is just good to make visuals of your projects, but not in any way to be precise and exact with architecture, so that is one big BUT
So while midjurney creates increadible nice images, i would like to have options like Controlnet for midjurney. another Problem is, that midjurney cant be used from big architectural companys, because the content is placed somewhere, somehow in the internet, visible to everyone .. everywhere.. Thats why i rather would focus on stable diffusion, which seems to get comparabel results using optimised prompts, but can be installed localy, can be trained on your specialised style, and moreover now can use Controlnet to bring your sketch to live in an unbeleavable good way
i would like to customize a custom architecture rendering. the image should not change only the mood and quality. the architecture or image scenery must remain exactly the same. is this possible?
Updated ChatGPT Prompt for Exteriors: Please create a table that breaks down an exterior architecture photograph composition into the following key elements, where each of these key elements is a column: Composition, Camera Angle, Building Style, Room Description Type, Focal Point, Building Materials, Color of Building, Lighting, Location, Time of Day, Mood, Reference Architects, Typology. Edit: I'm not sure what going on but the Exterior propmt structure does not seem to work as well as the interior one. Perhaps it because I futzed with the prompt a few times before it worked. You may need to alter your table query, mine is "please write an example from each row as a concise comma-separated sentence."
thx for the video, its very usefull, to be honest) just starting explore the ai-visualisation, and it looks preety usable for architecture even now on start)
the only problem is than just 1 image, you cant make 5 identical images of the same building, AI tools just are in concept stage at the moment. Definitely not to make final production renders.
Please be VERY cautious w/Midjourney, everyone. The issues w/copyright also apply to anything you create. Every image you create is “feeding” the dataset from which it “learns”. So portions of your render can easily appear in a complete stranger’s render. There is no privacy or ownership! They own all of your images and the free version immediately makes your image a searchable part of its dataset. Imagine making a site plan render for a client with high security needs and not only is it instantly available for viewing by anyone/everyone who wants to view it, parts of this plan can appear in a stranger’s plan. It’s very dangerous. The capabilities of Midjourney are impressive but, personally, the privacy, security and ownership issues will keep me far away until they can be resolved.
good. im all for collective knowledge. imagine if scientists werent allowed to use other scientific finds because they are copyrighted, or imagine musicians not being able to sample other songs. i think copyright is the result of our current economic system and it doesn’t necessarily help us progress and create new and exciting stuff. I think all art (including architecture) is inspired from something that already exists, this is not a new concept
@@d6o9 I think you’re misunderstanding the thrust of my concern. It’s not simply about copyright. If I use a clients site plan to create a rendering, the private information of a person’s floor plan to their home, is now in the public sphere. That’s not a copyright issue, that’s a very real safety and privacy concern. I’d also have to disagree about copyright being only for the purposes of lining wallets. An artist, illustrator, photographer, etc. makes their living from the sale of their images. Without copyright, anyone and everyone can use them free of charge, destroying the livelihoods of all of these artists. Artists have to eat, too. Copyright is one of the only things protecting their means of income. You expect artists to create art without any compensation?
Everybody is saying right now "it won't replace rendering softwares", and that is "just a tool for the creative process", but with this tools constantly advancing won't you think it'll get there eventually? I mean with things like stable diffusion + control net we are already getting some control, what if they come up with intelligent masks for identifying elements to easily replace walls, floors, environments, etc mantaining general and consistent lightning of the scene, When that happens the next step will be for 3d or architecture softwares to implement this as a part of their own set of tools and everybody could be a proffesional archviz artist without having to have any understanding of photography whatsoever because AI will give you cinematic results within an instant. I think its kind naive to think this only will be "a tool" for the creative process
I'm more interested in how AI can generate variants of our own renders, for example I generate of photo from a traditional software then I ask midjurny to create an alternative pic with other materials Etc.., it would be great.
At the moment rendering in MJ is still limited. If I want two windows on the left side of the room and the kitchen furniture on the right, it is almost impossible to achieve that. It lacks precision.

Today, my staff just need to press one button to render the stuff, and using library of template cads for new designs. The hardwork of two months with old style are getting done with couple of works today techs.
Even down to my colleagues in civil engineering and project managements. They cant work without the help of stuff like Etab calculation or BIM. Its simply shortens the amount of work so we can efficiently handle many other stuff.
I cant imagine what the future hold with cloud computing, AI concepting, VR realism, and many other stuff.
Perfect tool for creating mood boards and very initial concepts. I don't think the construction industry will ever trust a floor plan or construction drawing made by AI.
Ultimately, It's a tool to streamline our workflow.
I agree! With the state of Midjorney today. But if this has happened in a few months, I can't imagine what will happen in a few years. There are already 3d software like Spline where you type in what you want and AI will generate it. So, eventually it's going to get better to the point where we won't even notice. AI in 3d software, AI in rendering software, AI in Post production software....
@@ShowItBetter I do believe AI will indeed be eventually be used to create building floor plans. Once given the set parameters and rules of building codes, build area, floor limitations, required installations, it would make complete sense for AI in the near future to generate entire buildings floor plans (even at construction resolution), sections and elevations, within the set parameters relevant to your project and state, in seconds to minutes. It wouldn't be an image generator necessarily, but would be capable of generating every single building element in a way that would be ready to build, relevant to your local building codes. This would likely be a hybrid of fuzzy-logic, with flexible and inflexible parameters, combined with genuine AI.
@@jacobcurran7529 regarding the floor plans, i think us architects already possess powerful tools like grasshopper where we input our parameters and get proper generative plans , ( finch3d ). Which is why I think the industry will lean heavily towards parametric generative architecture rather than luck based AI.
I may be horribly wrong, truly exciting times but I think we still have a few years to save our profession.
@@dududadadede96 Yes, I do agree with you. It is also fairly unlikely that a client is going to want to be radically surprised by a randomly generated floor plan. Perhaps we'll end up with a few cool tools that incorporate a touch of AI, to make our work-flow a tad more speedy.
@@jacobcurran7529 what do you mean by surprised? as far as i see a layout programs cannot develop in more than 5-6 design proposals and more often there is 1-2 that are superior by their efficiency. i dont see how it can surprise a client more than an ordinary plan.
If Ai achieves a level of complexity where it could analyze and consider each and every accumulated data from zoning, site analysis, land use and topography, human anthropometrics, structural design, availability of specifications and materials, available tech, psychology, project management and master planning, etc, etc... while customizing to the client's requirements and taste then yeah maybe in the more distant future, but this is by no means near the surface of what architects deal with.. I'm also an architect btw so I didn't just google these things up, but I can see how this tech can absolutely assist in the design process..
that chat gpt workflow video would be great!!!
I love architecture, do different design work, and mid journey has been amazing since I don't have to spend the learning curve on the software to create something pretty close to what I want. Just wish it understood more, but I'm sure I'll wish the opposite soon lol
To me, there are many issues with this AI (Machine Learning), but most of them are going to the people who develop and the people who miss use it. As mentioned in another comment, comparing this to websites such as Pinterest, which makes everybody a designer, Boy I can tell you how many contractors that hire me don't even use an Architect, because, 'They can design'. As an Arch Viz artist, I've seen our industry hit many times by new technologies that are cool and all but the people misused always for a quick profit. Today everyone is a rendering person. most of them are really bad, but since the invention of Computer generated images, all these images lost their value instantly. If you are an Architect and want to copy someone else design, I mean get inspiration from someone else, yes, this tool is great. it can fill your brain with 1000 copies of someone else work. Then why do you need to be creative?, and push your boundaries when the software can do it for you. I don't know. Yea, I am not excited in the right way for this. for sure, I will learn it and use it, But paying money to a company that has sweatshops in some poor countries using very low pay workers for data entry and entry and content review to make better software that will take all weight to something that was hand made, feels weird to me, I guess I could say the same of the Car, the telephone, the computer and so on. yea, we pay a price for advancing technology, for sure. You know I started following your channel just for the craft you showcase, the way you combine software and techniques to create something different and unique. How you had a 'vision or inspiration' in your brain and try to express it in different media (Which is very different to what mid-journey or any AI does) . Your work and the way to create is inspiring, and that earns mines and many other people's respect. This AI future seems plain and none inspiring for sure, to me at least.
You made a valid point with your words.(AI) I dislike it and am terrified of it since I am an architect. Where do the ideas come from? They want to slack off the brain. The architect's design concept now has that as its new objective.
Yes I agree. The point of an architect is to have a human being interpret your needs and actually (in theory) create something new and innovative. With this technology, a developer can create floor plans in 5 minutes, make super attractive renders, and build a building that makes them a ton of money and does nothing in terms of architecture. These tools seem to allow non-designers to feel like architects because they create the same looking final product as an architect would create, but it almost seems soul-less...which would make sense considering it is AI. Also just the concept of inputting a prompt where you have to specify what kind if already existing style you want it in inherently removes the ability to innovate and find your own voice as a designer. The scary part is when developers consider that what AI can create is good enough for them to build a building and make a quick buck. Will save them lots of money on hiring an architect for the design, and they'll have a building that looks decent. 🤷🏽♂️
Curious to learn how we can load specific SketchUp/Revit models and real-world site photography into these programs to create ACCURATE on-site renderings...
I like how the videos insinuate that architecture and interiors are not based on plans. As an Archviz designer, I can tell you that precision is crucial for creating these visuals, and you must follow the plans of the architects. Most of my clients request private competition images, so sharing confidential plans with an AI isn't possible and would be highly unprofessional. Adding an organic pillar that doesn't serve the structure of the building is not architecture.
Also, the visuals made on Midjourney have all the same kind of style, not any soul. The goal of an image during an architecture competition is to stand-out and to explain perfectly the concept. The realism is not always the final goal. Please stop saying that this is art. A designer, a painter or an architect fully controlled everything, on Midjourney you have zero controlled and everyone
I'm just embracing MJ as a creative tool. I'm no architect and I shoot houses for the living. And this helps me to dream up the kind of design that I loved
Super excited about what's to come! 🎉 feel like it will be a tool...just like photoshop didn't put photographers out of business but gave them a tool to make their photos even better
Photoshop does not generate images, as of now, only edits them so could never put photographers out of business. Ai Generates images, mostly by stealing original artists work and re mashing them, & will put photographers in certain niches out of work.
@@BubbleGendut exactly!!!
Loved this video. Those who understand how to best leverage these tools will understand that AI is actually opening the doors to help reach our full creative potentials as designers rather than being a threat to our namesake. Would love to see how you utilize ChatGPT throughout your workflow as well!
Full creative potential? When you design something (At least meaningful design) every color, shape, light, scale, orientation, lay out, etc. has a meaning, unless your intention is randomness. Mid journey steals parts from the work of others and puts them together for you to think or work less. AI is a tool for now but it is advancing in a pace never experienced in human history and will be able to do all what we do, faster and better and won't need human interaction to operate. It is going to create generations of talentless, vain and unskilled designers, artists and creators. A pencil, a ruler, paper, talent and knowledge were the tools utilized by the architects who transformed the world.
Thanks for your input Luis! I think history has taught us that we shouldn't push away technological advancements or think of them as doom. Just a few decades back this exact same conversation was being made with computers, then with 3d rendering engines, then with real time rendering engines, now it's AI. We have to adapt to the tools at hand and use them as creatively as possible, we are still the ones typing the words, pressing the buttons, talking to clients, etc. The tools are just changing...
@@luismacias1554 Well you’re entirely correct. AI in its current state generates images, not designs. But design is also inherently an iterative process. The rate at which machines can iterate on both quantitative and qualitative design parameters is infinitely faster than even the world’s greatest minds on paper. The eventual goal should be a symbiotic relationship between the creative potential of our human mind supplemented with the computational and analytical power of machines to optimize and explore design options!
@@luismacias1554 its just another tool in the shed. As you mention colors, what exactly do you mean? Surely not the exact mix of right pigments and binders to achieve a desired color for the specific material. That's already done by others with endless amounts of work hours over the millenia of evolutionary process, and you're just picking from premixed paints.
AI is a similar process.
@@ShowItBetter A tool is an extension of our body or brain, an instrument, a tool is designed for specific tasks, it doesn't learn by itself or replace human expression. AI might be a tool now, but it won't be for long, greed, naivety and sociopathy will drive it to the destruction of the core of human experience and expression, it is already doing it with all the polarization and division created in social media (it was suppose to connect people, ha). Typing words, pressing buttons and talking to clients won't be necessary since the only thing they will need to do is to spell some words and AI programs (companies currently developing) will immediately create lay outs and designs according to local codes, bylaws and construction methods, for what we have seen so far AI will learn all that with out the need of coding or direct input from us. I am an architect with my own practice and I know for a fact that utilizing AI will make my practice more efficient and organized and won't need to hire new grads or designers just out of schools or universities to train or mentor, it will be just too unconvininent .
Using it in our firm. I am totally psyched about my results and the future. I look to it for ideas and not so much the end project.
exactly, I guess that's the best way to use it at the moment, hopefully in the future it can be a bit more precise
The public should remember that real architects are not just renderers...They create code-compliant sets of drawings from which a building for a client can be built. These drawings must adhere to building codes and zoning regulations often unique to the town or county a project is in. Omitting even a small dimension from a handrail or window can result in a costly change ordered over which an architect can get sued. Material science and the detailing of complex material systems that will last, not leak, survive the test of time, and not fail for a variety of reasons is an absolutely vital skill that an architect must bring to the table. Not only that, but the climate in which an architect is building will inform numerous iterations of how details are drawn and buildings are designed on technical and structural levels. Anyone who thinks this is outside of their purview as an architect is not an architect, but rather merely a designer or artist. That is fine, but let's not confuse someone who only knows how to conceptualize and render buildings with someone who is an architect that can actually deliver a built work to a client. Architecture is not a rendering of a curvy glass building in a field. If AI can help us speed up the conceptual and visual aspects of the design and drawing process then great. I used to absolutely hate the amount of time that had to get dedicated to producing professional grade renderings for commercial clients. If you didnt have time and sub-contracted it out it was very expensive and ate up your design fee. I know times have changed but just imagine that an older person like me is actually JEALOUS of AI, not scared or grumpy about it. But I'm not at all worried about AI taking our jobs. I think it will make them much easier and allow us to put energy into the aspects of project delivery that we want to instead of some of the tedious things that we all used to work 80hrs a week to try and finish.
yes please show how you create exterior/interior in Midjourney!! it s amazing!
A lot of junior level architecture work is about toilet partitions and hardware schedules. At the moment this is just a wet dream, great for ideas and conversations, but don't /imagine that it will coordinate structure, services and energy use with building regulations and local materials.
Ai is a bullshit generator
A lot of junior level architecture work is about rendering and preparing others ideas for presentation. This blows that out the water
Great tutorial! I just signed up for your channel! Thanks for sharing it!
Very nice video. You make a lot of great points, I some how was not aware of this service and will now be diving into it deeper.
You have every right to make art and architecture that is influenced by the style of any artist or architect.
Great content! I would really love to see how you integrate Chat GPT into your architecture workflow.
meeeee too!!!
why did i learn Graphic Design and 3d Modeling - this takes away the fun out of my job...
Great video! I really like your content, nice inspiration to face final assignments ;) Me encantaría ver como utilizas GPT4!
Eventually, an Architect has to produce drawings with detailed dimensions. I can see the advantage of using Midjourney for generating potential concepts abbe interiors. Thanks for the introduction.
This is great! Thank you for the tutorial.
How do you protect your data? Their data collection and control seems pretty aggressive.
You can't. Because eveything's stolen, they just capitalise the fact that law legislation can't keep up with technological progress
I didn’t see this as being presented as reducing architecture to just aesthetics, but as a tool to speed up rendering
awesome, yes I would love a video on how to use Chat GBT for architectural work.
Interior designer, artist and educator here. I use Midjourney for generating images across architecture, interior design, and graphic design applications. I have my own way of using it, but I love learning how other people use it and what's been working for them. Loved your video. Thank you :)
Thanks for this video.... have to admit all this sh*t is really unsettling for me! If Pinterest made every client a 'designer', I can only imagine what this will do once it improves / becomes more mainstream.
Es brutal bro... llevo años trabajando con Archviz y trato de estar atento a lo que va saliendo en cuento a IA.... pero esto va muy rápido y a veces es abrumador tanta info. Gracias por compartir y enseñar de tu experiencia...
Super great video ! 🔥 Thank you for all the tips
Videazo! Excellent content my friend. Thanks for sharing.
hombre muchas gracias! saludos!
For collage, conceptual design, inspiration is useful. Some preliminar ideas. Thats it, for now, the extension of the tool.
Very nice results!
Have you tried purpose build tools like VISOID which allows you to render your projects?
Great video! Could you please share some of the prompts of the images you generated? It would be a great help with understanding how Midjourney works and how to get better precision of the results.
sure! I'll set up a PDF with the prompts
@@ShowItBetter love you
Thank you for sharing an awesome methodology! You are pointing us to a hopeful future!
I hope so! thanks for watching!
Copyright be damned, Oscar Niemeyer mentioned in this video, Zaha Hadid in several other Video prompts. These people gave their life and personal time to hone their skills.
Thanks for the video. Where can I find that Blue Cabin with a small porch that you show a couple of times in this video? Is it your work? Thanks.
As a Midjourney user myself this video is so helpful 🤌
Amazing video Steven! Experiencing with Midjourney for my designs gave me great concept ideas, however can I suggest maybe you can release a video about inspiring a design and creating 3D model like Tim Fu from Zaha Hadid Architects? Thank you!
Excited, though I'm more close to your "old professor"... Cornell B.Arch '86
no offense to the OGs!
In the creative field our jobs are never secure, for sure the pace is quickening every year. I remember complaining when I was doing my master's in architecture that the new 1st years had it easy because the programs had gotten stronger. I remember using Lumion when it first came out and how trash it was; now it's completely changed. That said, I can't complain, I can only keep up and not be left behind. We have to adapt are there are those that are starting to figure out where AI cannot compete and are driving more in the conceptual realm of design where AI is less refined and harder to control. One way I've seen this is designers modeling architecture in a 3D software and then putting an image into Midjourney to do the render. I guess the other thing here is that very few firms actually do creative work, I don't think creativity is jeopardized in any way because consumerism already dictates such lackluster design. Go outside and count the amount of creative architecture that you see. From my window all I see is basic commercial buildings. Some of you may be lucky to live in an architecturally rich area, but most don't. All in all, just because more people can create design does not mean we are out of a job. It just means that there are more designers out there (yes I use the word design because it's a word that cannot be hoarded by few since it it is so broad), but I can assure you, there will still be a big difference between someone who can use an AI program, and someone who has been trained to design through school an experience and can the use AI as a tool rather than a dictator. This will show in the quality of the work. Creativity is never a problem of technology but rather our own inclination to what is cheap, easy, and fast, this has always been the case.
Started using MJ for super graphics and mural generation for some projects. Also recently used it for exterior canopy studies.
I have a specific query about using AI tools for interior design. If I have a 2D plan of a working office space, is it possible to use AI tools to create a furnishing design for that space? Also, do these tools help transform inspiration images created by midjouney into workshop drawings and scales?
Thanks for giving a detailed Tutorial on ways we could use Midjourney. I didnt knew that midjourney can do these things like blending of images, etc. and also love this video and you content. Thanks for creating such informative videos, I would also try to generate some images for the concept of my this semester project.🥰🥰
thanks Nikhil! Glad you liked it. There are more indepth features you can use with midjourney that hopefully I can cover in the future. Good luck on your semester project!
@@ShowItBetter thank you so much and looking forward to upcoming videos
great video, can't wait to see how u optimize chatgpt into ur workflow, trying to learn as an interior architecture student
Your videos never disappoint! I’ve been exploring Stylar’s AI and it’s impressive. Would love to see your thoughts on it.
Great explanation! Simple and direct!!!
Would you recomend Midjourney over other AI tools for architects?
thanks! there are many different AI tools at the moment, but in terms of image creation, I would go for midjourney for sure
great brother. go ahead we need mor
thanks Ahmed! more coming
Fantastic! Thank you so much
Looking foward to buy a new course regarding this software. 🤓
What is the prompts I need to use in midjourney to recreate an old black and white picture of a building with low resolution in a realistic color picture with hi res? I mean to have the exact picture fixed. And once is in the system, what about to get this building and put another point of view from another part of the street? Can you do that? How? Thank you very much!
Wow. I loved it.
thanks!
Love it!
Thanks!!
IMPORTANT QUESTION: Is it possible transform a mediocre render into a realistic one?
Great video!
thanks!
Thank you so much, Steven! I've been using MJ for several months, but I really appreciate the tips for implementing it more deeply in my workflow. I was wondering when a feature like /describe would come out!
Curious sir what’s the best way to copy paste those tables into another program to Save and also copy a row into MidJourney? Great video
Wow! Very interesting! Thank you ( Could you say me your brand glasses? ;)
thanks! honestly it's a local glasses shop, nothing special :)
Great information and production value, are you using AI video and VFX tools?
Can i use a basic revit/archicad 3D model to generate photorealstic render ? I usualy do it on 3DS or blender but it takes a lot of time and i dont have that time for small project like houses or such ...
Man that shit is incredible and scary as hell at the same time 👀
How does this work with rendering a building you have already designed? can you feed it a floor plan or elevation and have it render it?
Thank you for the video! The only question that keeps bothering me is what you do with the actual measurements when you start building your projects? These are high quality renders, yet they are still just beautiful visuals, what about the actual technical architectural side of it?
That's the big question! haha, for now this is just good to make visuals of your projects, but not in any way to be precise and exact with architecture, so that is one big BUT
can it already work like " add a metal staircase to this photo, here (some colored marking to specfy the placement)
Great Video!!!
thanks this was helpful and I lernen a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
So while midjurney creates increadible nice images, i would like to have options like Controlnet for midjurney.
another Problem is, that midjurney cant be used from big architectural companys, because the content is placed somewhere, somehow in the internet, visible to everyone .. everywhere..
Thats why i rather would focus on stable diffusion, which seems to get comparabel results using optimised prompts, but can be installed localy, can be trained on your specialised style, and moreover now can use Controlnet to bring your sketch to live in an unbeleavable good way
Great tips, thank you!
Nice vid ! Can you share with the name of AI SketchUp plugin ?
i would like to customize a custom architecture rendering. the image should not change only the mood and quality. the architecture or image scenery must remain exactly the same. is this possible?
Hi! great works!, really want to see a video of to use chat GPT workflow for architects
Updated ChatGPT Prompt for Exteriors: Please create a table that breaks down an exterior architecture photograph composition into the following key elements, where each of these key elements is a column: Composition, Camera Angle, Building Style, Room Description Type, Focal Point, Building Materials, Color of Building, Lighting, Location, Time of Day, Mood, Reference Architects, Typology.
Edit: I'm not sure what going on but the Exterior propmt structure does not seem to work as well as the interior one. Perhaps it because I futzed with the prompt a few times before it worked. You may need to alter your table query, mine is "please write an example from each row as a concise comma-separated sentence."
nice! will try it
YES!
Let’s say it’s an existing building, urban environment only want to do a facade design, without changing the mass. Can you lower the intensity? Thanks
with the new selective correction from Midjourney you can!
Kind of the arrival of the linguistic architecture, maybe what Eisenman and Derrida conceived
Chatgpt video please! we appreciate you 💙
thx for the video, its very usefull, to be honest) just starting explore the ai-visualisation, and it looks preety usable for architecture even now on start)
Glad it helped!
that chat gpt workflow video would be great
I am a sculptor. Can I put a photo of a model into mid-journey to show a mock-up of my sculpture model in context to architecture or a garden?
with a lot of trial and error you sure can!
what we do when ai make all the process for us?
Can you please provide base prompts used in the video?
Mark my words. We will regret all of this.
Please let us know how do you use chatgpt for design
I've been on the site and I didn't succeed in reaching the page you demonstrated on your video...any idea? how to get into it?
midjourney works through discord :)
I would like to how to use mid journey in architect imagem and render in twinmotion
I would love to see the Chat GPT architecture workflow!
the only problem is than just 1 image, you cant make 5 identical images of the same building, AI tools just are in concept stage at the moment. Definitely not to make final production renders.
Please be VERY cautious w/Midjourney, everyone.
The issues w/copyright also apply to anything you create. Every image you create is “feeding” the dataset from which it “learns”. So portions of your render can easily appear in a complete stranger’s render.
There is no privacy or ownership! They own all of your images and the free version immediately makes your image a searchable part of its dataset.
Imagine making a site plan render for a client with high security needs and not only is it instantly available for viewing by anyone/everyone who wants to view it, parts of this plan can appear in a stranger’s plan. It’s very dangerous.
The capabilities of Midjourney are impressive but, personally, the privacy, security and ownership issues will keep me far away until they can be resolved.
good. im all for collective knowledge. imagine if scientists werent allowed to use other scientific finds because they are copyrighted, or imagine musicians not being able to sample other songs. i think copyright is the result of our current economic system and it doesn’t necessarily help us progress and create new and exciting stuff. I think all art (including architecture) is inspired from something that already exists, this is not a new concept
@@d6o9 I think you’re misunderstanding the thrust of my concern. It’s not simply about copyright. If I use a clients site plan to create a rendering, the private information of a person’s floor plan to their home, is now in the public sphere. That’s not a copyright issue, that’s a very real safety and privacy concern.
I’d also have to disagree about copyright being only for the purposes of lining wallets. An artist, illustrator, photographer, etc. makes their living from the sale of their images. Without copyright, anyone and everyone can use them free of charge, destroying the livelihoods of all of these artists. Artists have to eat, too. Copyright is one of the only things protecting their means of income. You expect artists to create art without any compensation?
Everybody is saying right now "it won't replace rendering softwares", and that is "just a tool for the creative process", but with this tools constantly advancing won't you think it'll get there eventually? I mean with things like stable diffusion + control net we are already getting some control, what if they come up with intelligent masks for identifying elements to easily replace walls, floors, environments, etc mantaining general and consistent lightning of the scene, When that happens the next step will be for 3d or architecture softwares to implement this as a part of their own set of tools and everybody could be a proffesional archviz artist without having to have any understanding of photography whatsoever because AI will give you cinematic results within an instant. I think its kind naive to think this only will be "a tool" for the creative process
In the future an AI "app" can take the place of an entire architecture/engineering firm.😊
I'm more interested in how AI can generate variants of our own renders, for example I generate of photo from a traditional software then I ask midjurny to create an alternative pic with other materials Etc.., it would be great.
i just signed up to Midjourney through Discord but it seems to be only a paid service. Is there a way to fiddle with it without forking out?
At the moment rendering in MJ is still limited. If I want two windows on the left side of the room and the kitchen furniture on the right, it is almost impossible to achieve that. It lacks precision.
Can midjourney take and image and give you a "prompt" for it, a discription of what's there?
/describe
