Architecture & AI Booklet — Between Tool & Thought

Developed alongside my architectural studio work, this booklet is an independent investigation into the role of artificial intelligence in architectural design. It examines questions of authorship, representation, and the development of responsible, critically aware workflows.

Rather than a template or summary, this publication functions as a complete studio record. It documents the evolution of design thinking, the integration of AI methodologies, and the translation of these processes into visual and spatial outcomes at a professional academic level.

A central focus of the booklet is the exploration of AI-based rendering tools, with particular emphasis on Visoid AI, tracing its application within the design process—from early experimentation to final representation.

This booklet follows the complete logic of a European master’s-level design studio and includes:

  • Territorial, regional, and local urban analysis
    (developed using QGIS, Eurostat, Lombardy Geoportale, and hydrological datasets)

  • Water as a spatial generator
    Basin hierarchies, drainage systems, and gravity-driven design strategies

  • Masterplan & site strategy
    Linking landscape, infrastructure, and architecture through a linear hydro-system

  • Architectural design development
    Including the Hydro Tower, thermal baths, forest retreat, and urban interface

  • Nature-based solutions (NBS)
    Floodable landscapes, ecological corridors, and stormwater strategies

  • Precedent studies
    Referencing works by Peter Zumthor, Carlo Scarpa, and the Bellinzona Bathhourse

  • Final drawings, diagrams, sections, and models
    Clear, exam-ready and portfolio-quality layouts

  • Process documentation
    Showing how analysis informs architecture across multiple scales

This is a complete studio archive intended as a reference for architecture students, portfolio development, and anyone interested in water-led, landscape-driven design.
