ArchDailyA Cliff House Powered by AI
Central to her award-winning cliff house design—also featured on ArchDaily—is the use of advanced AI tools that are transforming architectural visualization, enabling a faster and more intuitive transition from concept to immersive visual experience. As she revealed on Illustrarch, she integrates @typus.ai into her workflow. This allowed her to create high-quality visuals for the project independently—without the need to hire external visualizers or dedicate excessive time and resources. By leveraging AI, she was able to significantly reduce costs while maintaining full creative control over the process.
