🚀Join us for AI-Powered Design Exploration: From Ideation to Visualization, a 2-day AI-driven architectural design workshop where participants explore the complete workflow from early-stage ideation to accurate architectural visualization.
🔗 Ready to join? Secure your seat and register through the link: paacademy.com/course/ai-powe…
✨ Led by Architect and Project Director at Adjaye Associates, Daeho Lee, the workshop covers precedent analysis, architectural element extraction, AI-generated mutation and variation, critical selection, Rhino-based visualization, material and lighting studies, contextual editing, and AI-assisted animation using Midjourney, Nano Banana Pro, and Kling.
Participants will develop an AI-assisted workflow for both architectural ideation and visualization using AI tools. You will learn how to read buildings and objects as collections of physical elements rather than simply as stylistic references, extracting characteristics such as massing, openings, terraces, recesses, and structural conditions.

📌 The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart transforms more than 140 years of automotive history into an architectural experience shaped by geometry, movement, and spatial continuity.
Designed by UNStudio and opened in 2006, the building is defined by a complex double-helix structure that organizes nine levels into two interconnected exhibition routes. Across 16,500 m², around 160 vehicles and more than 1,500 exhibits trace the evolution of the automobile, from its invention in 1886 to contemporary innovations.

The visitor journey begins at the uppermost level and unfolds through continuous ramps, open galleries, and intersecting spaces, connecting the museum’s architectural logic with its historical narrative. Here, circulation becomes more than a means of movement, it shapes how the collection is discovered and experienced.

🔥Join us for Eco-Parametric Architecture, a new two-day PAACADEMY workshop with Arthur Mamou-Mani (@Mamou_Mani), exploring how parametric design, robotic fabrication, and circular material thinking can come together in one complete workflow.
🔗 Ready to explore the workflow? Tap the link to register: paacademy.com/course/eco-par…
Drawing from the work of Mamou-Mani Architects and fabrication research at Fab.Pub, participants will use Rhino 8, Grasshopper, and RunChat to develop a modular architectural system from digital geometry to robotic production, assembly, disassembly, and reuse.
🤩 What You’ll Learn
• Develop adaptable parametric systems in Grasshopper
• Design within geometry, material, and fabrication constraints
• Prepare components for robotic 3D printing
• Generate robotic toolpaths and G-code
• Create systems designed for assembly and disassembly
• Explore circular strategies for material reuse
• Integrate AI while maintaining geometric precision
The workshop follows a complete modularize → path → print → reuse workflow, connecting computational design with fabrication and circular construction.
