Integrating Multimodal Generative AI and Blockchain for Enhancing Generative Design in the Early Phase of Architectural Design Process

Multimodal generative AI and generative design empower architects to create better-performing, sustainable, and efficient design solutions and explore diverse design possibilities. Blockchain technology ensures secure data management and traceability. This study aims to design and evaluate a framework that integrates blockchain into generative AI-driven design drawing processes in architectural design to enhance authenticity and traceability. We employed a scenario as an example to integrate generative AI and blockchain into architectural designs by using a generative AI tool and leveraging multimodal generative AI to enhance design creativity by combining textual and visual inputs. These images were stored on blockchain systems, where metadata were attached to each image before being converted into NFT format, which ensured secure data ownership and management. This research exemplifies the pragmatic fusion of generative AI and blockchain technology applied in architectural design for more transparent, secure, and effective results in the early stages of the architectural design process.
