In short
1980 modernism
Modernism in architecture, particularly around 1980, marked a transition towards postmodernism, characterized by a reaction against the austerity and functionalism of earlier modernist principles.
1990 Postmodernism
Postmodernism in architecture during the 1980s marked a departure from the minimalism and functionalism of modernist design, embracing eclecticism, historical references, and a playful approach to form and color.
2000 Digital technologies
Digital Technologies in Architecture" refers to the integration of computer-aided design (CAD), Building Information Modeling (BIM), and various digital fabrication techniques that began to gain prominence around the year 2000.
2010 sustainability Energy
In the 2010s, sustainability and green architecture gained significant momentum as a response to climate change and environmental degradation. Architects began prioritizing energy efficiency, using renewable materials, and incorporating technologies like solar panels and rainwater harvesting systems.
2025 AI-Empowered Visualizations
By 2025, AI-empowered visualizations revolutionized architectural and interior design, blending artificial intelligence with human creativity to produce photorealistic renders in minutes. Tools like Stable Diffusion, specialized LoRA models (e.g., GDM Modern Interior Design), and workflows in ComfyUI enable rapid style exploration—from minimalist to retrofuturistic—while preserving structural integrity via ControlNet. These advancements deliver 80% cost savings and 90% faster turnaround compared to traditional 3D rendering, democratizing high-quality visualization and empowering architects to iterate designs with unprecedented speed and flexibility.
