Take an architectural brief from site to design.

Prefig helps architects turn a project brief into traceable early design decisions, with AI options for concepts, massing, materials and presentation that you review and approve.

Follow Assos Field School from its brief and site through ten design stages. Use the real Workflow, Canvas and Studio, then practise branches, revisions and a presentation with prepared results.

A location supplies context; a drawn boundary makes placement and site-fit questions explicit. Compare visual directions, develop a 3D model or continue with images, and keep alternatives on separate branches. The course explains what each choice changes.
