This work proposes incorporating Machine Learning (ML) into a parametric architectural design workflow so ML mediates between architects’ inputs and end-users’ needs. The objective is to visualize creative designs by transforming information across formats, such as text-to-image or image-to-3D shapes. A process is suggested consisting of model creation, revisualization, and performance evaluation, enabling end-user participation while maintaining output quality through abstraction and processing rather than producing a fully realized final product.","Please cite the Published Version  \nAndreou, Alexis, Kontovourkis, Odysseas, Solomou, Solon  and Savvides, Andreas (2023) Rethinking architectural design process using integrated parametric design and machine learning principles.

However, it has mostly been used as a tool for managing information rather than as a means of enhancing the creative design process. This work proposes an innovative way to enhance the architectural design process by incorporating Machine Learning (ML), a type of Artificial Intelligence (AI), into a parametric architectural design process. ML would act as a mediator between the architects' inputs and the end-users' needs.
