Artificial intelligence in architecture enables engineers and architects to design, plan, and build structures more efficiently. With this technology at hand, architects can optimize designs for sustainability and cost-efficiency and come up with never-before-seen design solutions.
AI allows them to brainstorm and conceptualize their ideas. Moreover, AI enables architects to identify patterns that can inform efficient and environmentally friendly design decisions.

10 artificial intelligence use cases in architecture
Streamlining early-stage planning
Floor plans are integral documents that architects use to create a layout of a building. Using generative adversarial networks (GANs), architects can generate floor plans based on building dimensions and environmental conditions, minimizing the need for manual drafting. On top of that, machine learning models can adapt to an architect’s habits and methods over time, further improving workflows.

Autodesk Spacemaker is a comprehensive AI-based software that helps architects to streamline early-stage planning and site proposal generation. By combining data from building regulations, climate conditions, solar exposure, and more with a machine learning algorithm, Spacemaker can create multiple design options for architects in minutes. This allows architects to quickly identify and adjust the most viable option based on their preferences. By feeding its models with site data, Spacemaker can also solve problems related to a project’s environmental impact, automatically.

AI is used in architecture to help designers create more efficient, innovative, and creative solutions. AI can be applied for creating virtual 3D renderings and models, optimizing use of materials, searching for new design trends and patterns, automating time-consuming calculations like lighting simulation or energy consumption estimates, and analyzing vast amounts of data to create new insights.
One example of AI in architecture is generative design which uses algorithms to generate a range of optimized solutions based on input parameters. This type of AI can be used for anything from creating efficient structural designs to developing entire cityscapes.
