🟢 Architectural Design

Basic Structures

This is a highly suitable tip structure for production buildings in V5.

Let's first review the generic template from the last chapter:

Theme + Background, Environment, Atmosphere + Style + Parameters

Under the architectural generation setting, we use:

Detailed Theme Description + Surrounding Environment + Architectural Style or Era, Architects, Designers, and Photographers + Parameters

The order of the prompt is crucial. The closer a word is to the beginning of the prompt, the stronger its impact. Therefore, if you really want to emphasize an architect's style, you can put their name first:

Architect Name + Detailed Theme Description + Surrounding Environment + Other Styles, Aesthetics, Designers, and Photographers + Parameters

Kengo Kuma

Kengo Kuma, a renowned Japanese architect, has won architectural awards in Japan, Italy, Finland, and more. His works radiate Japanese style and Eastern Zen, often referred to as "negative architecture" for their integration of natural landscapes using materials like wood, clay bricks, bamboo, stone slabs, paper, or glass, combined with water, light, and air to create seemingly delicate yet durable and warm traditional structures.

In addition to architects, photographers are also crucial. If your prompt includes a photographer, I suggest adding the -s styling parameter and setting it lower than 100 (default is 100).
