The project takes up the challenge of using artificial Intelligence applications such as Midjourney, Disco Diffusion, and Stable diffusion at the starting point of the design. The premise for this project is an embassy building for Ukraine in Washington, D.C. The proposed brutalist embassy responds to the soviet era architectural traditions. It's a physical representation of openness, transparency, and democracy. Being located on the riverfront, the structure is designed such that it gives a feeling that it's floating over the water. The proposed embassy integrates seamlessly with the surrounding spaces, reducing the formal character and thus increasing public interaction with the site. The embassy consists of a consulate, Chancery, and ambassador's residence. A major focus has been on understanding the role of AI applications as a catalyst in the design process.
