Ever wondered what your Pinterest boards would actually look like as a real room?

I used ChatGPT to turn saved Pinterest images into an interior design mood board, then applied that mood board straight onto a photo of a real living room. No design software, just the right prompts.

The full process and the exact prompts I used are in the video.

I've been learning more about ISO 19650 recently, and to make the concepts easier to understand, I created a series of infographics covering:
✅ Part 1 – Concepts & Principles
✅ Part 2 – Delivery Phase
✅ Part 3 – Operational Phase
✅ Part 4 – Information Exchange
✅ Part 5 – Security-Minded Approach
✅ Part 6 – Health & Safety Information

The visuals were generated with ChatGPT, and I refined them to create a simple reference for BIM professionals, architects, engineers, and students.

I hope you find them useful. If they help you, feel free to share them with others who are learning ISO 19650.

Stuck on a blank page? Stop wasting hours and start reacting to concepts in seconds.

I just released a new walkthrough showing exactly how to turn a simple architectural idea into a photorealistic rendering using ChatGPT.
In this video, I break down a professional workflow to:
✅ Master the hidden aspect ratio settings for 16:9 widescreen renders.
✅ Layer material palettes (CLT, board-formed concrete, glass) like a pro.
✅ Emulate iconic styles—featuring a Zaha Hadid-inspired community center.
✅ Add realistic atmosphere with urban settings and "god rays."

Don’t just prompt—engineer your vision. Check out the full step-by-step tutorial here: https://youtu.be/Qv7BZOFoxNM?si=GOj9eqcAwLh3YtKz

Stop expecting your clients to "see" what you see in a 2D floor plan.

For many clients, a technical layout looks like a maze of lines and measurements. The spatial gap between a flat drawing and a finished building is where many projects face friction.

I just released a new tutorial showing how to bridge that gap using ChatGPT.

By using the "Create an Image" feature, you can now transform a standard floor plan into a high-fidelity 3D architectural render in seconds. In this video, I walk through:

✅ The exact prompt to maintain structural integrity.

✅ How to customize environments (like the 15-story urban drone view I created).

✅ Tips for getting photorealistic textures.

Don't just tell your clients what a space will look like—show them.

AI + BIM = The end of static data.
I just tested the new Model Context Protocol (MCP) in the latest software builds, and it’s a paradigm shift for the industry.
Imagine an AI that doesn't just "talk"—it ACTS.
Querying instances, checking orientations, and even coding its own visualization tools based on your model data.
I’ve put together a comprehensive guide on how to set this up today.
Watch it here: https://youtu.be/TXG9kE-yFzU?si=4NbAYCVWCqoKhiqV
What’s your first use case for an AI-connected model? Automated QA/QC? Client dashboards? Let's discuss below.
