Understanding the Functionality of Archicad AI Visualizer
Archicad AI Visualizer comes integrated with the Archicad software, eliminating the need for additional purchases. Users can swiftly conceptualize designs and generate multiple intricate design variations using simple prompts or descriptive phrases like “modern office with wooden accents.” By inputting information, structure, and concepts into the initial design, the tool generates design alternatives in the early stages.
Tailored prompts and outcomes cater to structural and interior design workflows, offering a user-friendly interface. The tool safeguards intellectual property by utilizing locally stored images on users’ devices. Users have the flexibility to adjust image sizes, iteration counts for faster image generation, and tweak parameters for precise results.
