UrbanistAI


Urban design scenarios created during UrbanistAI workshops in Helsinki
DESCRIPTION


UrbanistAI is a Generative AI platform created by Toretei and SPIN Unit, designed specifically for participatory planning and urban co-design.

It aims to revolutionize traditional urban planning methods by integrating AI, fostering a more interactive, inclusive, and democratic design process.



UrbanistAI is utilized by a wide range of stakeholders in urban development, including city administrations, urban planners, consultancy firms, community groups, educational institutions, and real estate developers.

It empowers users to transform into active contributors in the urban design process, enabling them to visualize and co-create the future of their cities and communities.

UrbanistAI stands as a methodological innovation, reshaping how cities and communities plan for the future, ensuring urban environments are crafted not just for the people but with the people.
HOW IT WORKS


UrbanistAI workshop at Oodi Library, Helsinki
UrbanistAI replaces conventional urban planning tools like maps and post-its with an intuitive, image-based language. The platform uses advanced AI technologies to generate visual urban design scenarios based on input from users.

It allows for the visualization and exploration of diverse design options, facilitating rapid iteration and customization.

Tailored AI models can be developed to reflect specific urban contexts or focus on particular urban elements, ensuring precision and relevance.

Democratization

UrbanistAI makes the urban design process more inclusive, allowing citizens and stakeholders to actively participate and co-create the future of their communities, thus promoting democratic engagement in urban development.

Communication and Alignment

The tool's visual approach helps bridge communication gaps, aligning citizens' visions with urban planners' interpretations for more effective urban development.

Adaptability and Scalability

UrbanistAI's customization capabilities allow it to adapt to various urban planning scenarios, making it a versatile and scalable tool suitable for different contexts and scales.
