Vertical Living: AI-Assisted Architectural Worldbuilding
Vertical Living is the first booklet in an ongoing series exploring speculative domestic architecture through editorial design, visualization, and architectural storytelling.
Inspired by Tadao Ando's 4×4 House and the challenges of dense urban environments, the project imagines homes designed for sites considered too narrow, too steep, or too constrained for conventional construction. Each concept explores how a simple organizational strategy can transform impossible conditions into generous places to live. The booklet combines AI-assisted concept generation with architectural drafting, 3D visualization, and graphic design to present each investigation as a small architectural publication rather than a collection of standalone renderings.
