Last month Archinect announced the launch of a special competition, Generative Futures: An AI + Architecture Storytelling Challenge. This open competition invites participants to envision a future, using text and images, exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence and architecture.
We encourage architects, designers, students, and storytellers to dream up, reflect on, investigate, or critique our future reality (or unreality) in a rapidly changing world using AI-driven text-to-image tools for graphics and text generation tools for words and scripts.
In addition to a $500 cash prize and publication on Archinect, Bustler, and MIT Technology Review, the best submissions selected by our esteemed jury will win software from our prize sponsors Morpholio Trace and SketchArch. Learn more below.
Morpholio Trace is the leading digital sketching app for architects and designers and has garnered a strong reputation among professionals and enthusiasts alike. Its advanced features and user-friendly interface make it an essential tool for architects, providing them with the ability to capture ideas, iterate designs, and collaborate on projects seamlessly.
From initial project design ideas, design details, and schematic sketches, Morpholio Trace combines "the speed of sketching with the intelligence and precision of CAD."
The app's unique augmented reality integration allows users to overlay their sketches onto real-world environments, providing a tangible sense of scale and context. Morpholio Trace also supports intelligent drawing tools, precision layers, and easy-sharing options, making it an essential companion for architectural projects. Whether visualizing concepts or communicating designs, the Morpholio Trace app empowers architects and designers to bring their visions to life with ease and precision.
The SketchArch app is a tool that allows architects and designers to enhance their creative potential. By harnessing artificial intelligence, SketchArch offers a range of intelligent design assistance features that streamline and enhance the design process.
With the app, architects can generate and evaluate design options quickly and efficiently. It utilizes machine learning algorithms to analyze input parameters, providing optimized solutions while preserving the designer's creative control. This accelerates the decision-making process, allowing architects to explore multiple design iterations and make informed choices.
The user-friendly interface of SketchArch makes it accessible to professionals at all levels of expertise. Its advanced functionalities, such as automated generation of 2D and 3D sketches, parametric modeling, and real-time visualization, significantly improve workflow efficiency. Architects can experiment with different design possibilities, evaluate the impact of changes in real-time, and collaborate seamlessly with team members and clients. From concept development to presentation, this innovative tool empowers architects to bring their visions to life with greater efficiency, precision, and artistic expression.
