This guide covers a workflow that moves from project parameters to generated floor plans, 3D perspective views, exterior design exploration, and site context visualization, using AI tools in place of preliminary CAD and rendering work.

Studentship detail:
The landscape of work in the creative industry, accelerated by the pandemic, is shifting towards hybrid work, involving in-person and remote collaborative practices. This means that as digital technology and virtual connectivity are becoming fully assimilated into everyday practice, the world is witnessing a transition from questions around how technology can be adopted and used in the workplace to those around how the new hybrid ecosystem should be humanised and designed to support workers holistically. Consequently, post-digital work will spatially, managerially, and socially juxtapose several seemingly conflicting constructs in the workplace (such as the need for simultaneous connectivity and disconnection; synchrony and asynchrony; individuality and collectively). This shift in work practices challenges the conventions of creative collaborative working.

Whether act of God or a superior force, our society responds to and prepares for Force-Majeure scenarios on many different scales. It has become increasingly obvious in the past year that disasters, both natural and human-made, exacerbate inequities in our society by unequally limiting access to healthcare, green spaces, fresh food, transportation, and education for our most vulnerable populations. Strengthening our communities allows us to be more resilient in the face of future Force Majeure scenarios. How can we as design professionals help support and provide care for the most vulnerable groups of people in our society? AIA Austin's DesignVoice Committee, in partnership with AIA Austin COTE, propose Force-Majeure, a design competition that addresses contemporary issues that are impacting our lives.

The state capital Düsseldorf is facing a decision for a location for the new development of an opera house. After an extensive examination of potential site locations, the current location of the Düsseldorf Opera House, at the Heinrich-Heine-Allee, as well as the location at „Am Wehrhahn 1“ were chosen as capable options.
Through this urban planning competition, the state capital Düsseldorf aims to garner concepts for both of the prospective building sites. The result of the competition should highlight each locations potentials and possibilities, to form a substantial basis for an informed location decision of the LHD after evaluation. Following to the political decision, a competition for realization is intended.
Both building sites exhibit different fundamentals for the accommodation of an opera house for the future.
Specific goals of the urban planning competition are:
- urban design of the opera halls cubage,
- verification of functional and area specific requirements developed by the city of Düsseldorf,
- representation of the opera hall within the urban context and junction with the surrounding urban fabric
- and especially the elaboration of the benefits for the city in purpose of „an opera for everyone”

While active lifestyles have increasingly been the focus of many people to stay fit physically, deep healing can still not be reached. As cities keep growing and daily realities quickly shift, people turn to new ways to maintain their well-being. For centuries, designers had missed a vital link to sustainability and well-being, which is the human beings’ inherent love for nature.
