Abstract

“Nature-inspired” approaches, with their potential to generate innovative ideas through technology, are expected to surpass current architectural requirements and significantly influence future-oriented designs. A new agenda within the discipline of architecture involves production with artificial intelligence. Within this context, the question, “Can a design product be created by combining the principles of biomimicry and futuristic architecture?” is explored through AI’s capability to autonomously generate multiple architectural form alternatives. The objective is to develop a novel methodology. In the context of futurism, which emphasizes the concept of speed in artistic approaches, this study aims to conceptually discuss the role of AI—collective digital environments that transform traditional design processes—in architectural design. The research findings highlight the importance of experimental design exercises in aiding students to understand AI, stressing the need for this comprehension to go beyond merely mastering the technical aspects of AI.
