AI is not merely entering architectural design—it is redefining it. Across all stages, from conceptualization to documentation, artificial intelligence is transforming how design work is conceived, developed, and delivered.
Among the growing number of AI design platforms, SUAPP AI and its core component SUAPP AIR have been recognized for integrating seamlessly into architectural workflows. According to a 30-day evaluation conducted by FutureForm Lab, which tested 27 AI-based design tools across various phases, SUAPP AI demonstrated the most cohesive performance—supporting the complete process from concept generation to final documentation within a unified system.
This prompted a key question for researchers: could a full architectural design process be completed within a single day using AI as the central tool?
Concept Generation: From "Brainstorming" to "Inspiration Overflow"
AI-assisted tools now allow architects to generate multiple conceptual variations within seconds. From a single text prompt, designers can obtain diverse forms, elevations, and massing options—effectively replacing early manual sketching and accelerating the ideation phase.
SUAPP AIC, an AI text-to-image system, functions as a bridge between early conceptual ideas and visual representation. With only a brief text description, it can generate project-oriented imagery that serves as inspiration for early design exploration.
1. Conceptual Design and Scheme Generation
Generate instant conceptual inspiration. Simply describe your initial idea to SUAPP AIC in text. For instance, input a prompt like: "A highly modern, minimalist two-story villa featuring clean, flowing exterior lines, unique cantilevered sections, and staggered layers that create a strong sense of spatial hierarchy."
SUAPP AIC is an AI text-to-image plugin that transforms text descriptions into project-specific conceptual visuals within seconds, delivering essential creative assets for early design phases.Key features include:
- Broad Application Scope: Supports a wide range of disciplines including architecture, interior design, landscape, product design, graphic design, and more.
- Flexible Input Methods: Users can either write custom requirements for highly tailored results or draw from an extensive built-in library of preset prompts—covering styles, eras, and atmospheres—for one-click use or further refinement.
- Precise Output Control: Offers adjustable parameters including Image Enhancer, Creative Vary, and reference image import, enabling full creative flexibility over the final output. Together with other tools in the SUAPP ecosystem—including SUAPP AIM, AIT, and AIA—SUAPP AIC helps form a seamless, AI-powered creative workflow. This integrated pipeline enables designers to rapidly generate inspiration, explore forms, and produce compelling visuals. Building on a generated concept, you can then use modes like Subtle Vary or Light Divergence for further idea expansion and variation.
2. Rapid visualization of massing models
Once a basic massing model is built in SketchUp, apply a SUAPP AIR rendering type—such as "ArchiVilla" or "ArchiRural"—to your white model. It instantly generates multiple styled renderings, allowing for immediate visual comparison of different massing and material options.
Fine-tune the balance between your original design and AI creativity with theCreativity Weight parameter. Slide higher to stay faithful to your base model, or lower to give the AI more freedom to innovate.
3. Convert site plans into aerial perspectives
Transform your 2D site plan into a compelling 3D aerial perspective with one click. Simply import the plan into SUAPP AIR, select the "Creative Editing - Site Plan to Aerial View" function, and generate a rendering that provides an immediate, macro-level understanding of your planning layout.
Scheme Development and Presentation
1. Precision-controlled rendering output
When your model reaches a developed stage and demands high-fidelity renderings, switch to the "Lingxi V2 - Precision Rendering" mode in SUAPP AIR. This mode is specifically engineered to capture and restore intricate model details with exceptional accuracy.
Take full control with the Partial Redraw feature. To refine specific areas—like a particular facade or tree group—simply mask the target section, provide a new text prompt, and iterate until the result perfectly aligns with your vision.
2. Multi-view consistent representation
SUAPP AIR-Iintellegent Editing-Camara Movement can replicate established visual styles across different camera views, ensuring coherence in multi-angle presentations.
To create a cohesive set of architectural visuals, you can also use SUAPP AIR's "Precision Rendering" feature. Once the rendering style is perfected for one angle, simply replicate the same parameters to generate consistent, high-quality images from other viewpoints.
3. Dynamic Design Presentation
SUAPP AIA introduces AI-assisted motion presentation generation, converting static renderings into animated project overviews. This approach improves communication clarity and engagement in client presentations.
SUAPP AIA acts as a dynamic presentation generator within the SUAPP ecosystem. It transforms static images or videos into engaging motion videos, allowing your designs to literally speak for themselves and communicate spatial concepts with unparalleled clarity. For designers, it primarily offers the following benefits:
- Engaging Presentations - Transform static images into dynamic videos that bring spaces to life, creating immersive and memorable presentations.
- Effective Communication - Help clients intuitively grasp spatial flow, materiality, and design intent through clear visual storytelling.
- Efficient Production - Deliver compelling motion content without the traditional time and cost of manual animation or video production.
4. Analytical Diagram Generation
Using natural-language input, the system can create analytical visuals such as zoning, axonometric, and circulation diagrams. Exploded views and elevation drawings can be automatically generated from model screenshots, significantly reducing manual post-production time.
One-Click Functional Analysis Diagram Generation
SUAPP AIR transforms model screenshots into publication-ready elevation drawings in three steps: generate the base drawing, then use Inpainting for annotations or keyword adjustments to polish specific details to perfection.
One-Click Generation of Exploded View Diagrams
Create professional exploded views in 30 seconds with SUAPP AIR. Just upload a model screenshot, and get a HD diagram with full control over zoom, partial edits, and styles—no more manual layer separation in Photoshop.
According to official platform tests, SUAPP AI has established itself as the definitive solution for architects pursuing zero-barrier AI productivity. As architecture's most practical AIGC toolchain, it serves four core domains: architecture, interior design, landscape, and planning. With a single model handling over 99% of scenarios from concept to delivery, SUAPP AI delivers a true production-grade toolbox—transforming AI into measurable, deliverable, and profitable productivity. If you know SketchUp, 3ds Max, Rhino Blender and other architectural design software, you're already 24 hours away from generating commercial returns with AI.
