The Image Studio

What will you draw today? Nine genres of architectural imagery, made from a sentence or from your model.

An architect draws a dozen kinds of picture before anything is built: the exploded axo that explains a structure, the watercolour a client frames, the planting section that settles an argument, the white-card model that makes a crit go quiet. The Image Studio is built around those pictures, not around AI models. You say what you're making, how it should look and what it is, and the studio does the rest.

How it works

You pick a genre and a style and describe the subject. The platform composes the prompt, picks the model for that style and pays for it. One image comes back, labelled as imagined.
  1. Pick a genre. Diagrams, sketches, interiors, landscapes, exteriors, photomontage, model photography, facades or construction. Each opens with its own styles and choices.
  2. Pick a style and a few choices. An ink-line axonometric or a soft pastel plan; morning light or dusk; four panels or one. The studio remembers them per genre.
  3. Say what it is. A sentence about the subject: "a four-storey timber school around a courtyard; the roof lifts to bring light into the hall". Leave the look to the style.
  4. Start from your model, if you like. Capture the Rhino view, or attach a sketch or a site photo. See Starting from your model.
  5. Generate. The image appears on the canvas. The Prompt button under it shows exactly what the model was asked, word for word.

Open the studio from the Wrengler panel: Systems, then Generate image in the header. Or ask the assistant with the Image chip, and it proposes a genre, a style and a subject for you to generate.

What goes into a prompt

Only two things: the wording of the genre, style and choices you picked, and the description you typed. The studio never adds study results, project documents, project facts or file names. A sunny courtyard in an image says nothing about whether the courtyard gets sun; for that, run the Sunlight study.

What you get

  • One image per request, on the canvas, with the images you made earlier in the session beside it.
  • The prompt and the caveats under every image.
  • An export with AI-GENERATED — NOT A SIMULATION RESULT burned into the pixels and a provenance file beside it. See Labels and provenance.
ℹ️

Pro includes 150 images a month, with no key to set up and nothing else to pay. Some styles use a more capable model and count as two; the studio says so under the Generate button.
