On Designing Residential Spaces with AI: The Second Lecture in the «Storytelling Festival» Series
The open lecture series of the Storytelling Festival continues. The second session of the season will be a public talk titled «AI as a Tool: New Horizons in Residential Design,» taking place on October 23 at the School. We will discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming residential design—from analyzing life scenarios to creating emotional concepts.
Join us for a discussion on how algorithms are becoming a working tool for the modern interior designer and what new possibilities they are unlocking.
What we will discuss
At the meeting, we will analyze real-world use cases of AI—ranging from analyzing residents' life scenarios to optimizing spatial design and creating emotional concepts. We will discuss how algorithms help prevent errors, accelerate routine tasks, and unlock possibilities that seemed impossible just yesterday. Special attention will be paid to finding the balance between technological sophistication and human-centered design within living spaces.
