Schematic Design AI
AI applications for the schematic design phase of architecture projects.
Definition
Schematic Design AI applies artificial intelligence to support early design decisions. These systems can generate design options, analyze program fit, evaluate site constraints, and provide preliminary cost feedback. AI helps architects explore more options and make better-informed decisions during schematic design.
In Depth
AI during schematic design provides rapid feedback on code compliance, cost implications, and energy performance as the design team explores options. This early feedback prevents the costly design rework that occurs when compliance or budget issues are discovered after the design concept is established.
Examples
Generating building massing options
Analyzing program fit to site
Providing early cost feedback
