How Is AI Reshaping Architectural Practice? Share Your Views and Win a $300 Gift Card!
Architects are stepping into the most transformative era since the rise of digital modeling — and AI is leading the charge. But how is this seismic shift truly impacting creative workflows, client communications and the future of design itself? These are the questions at the heart of a bold new industry survey from Architizer, in partnership with leading AEC software developer Chaos, creators of visualization tools like V-Ray and Enscape.
We’re inviting all architects, designers, and visualizers worldwide to take our latest survey on AI in Architecture today — one lucky respondent will win a $300 Amazon Gift Card as a thank you! The survey should take just 10 minutes of your time — hit the button below to get started:
As AI tools rapidly evolve — from image generation and material simulation to energy analysis and real-time design optimization — architects and designers around the world are wrestling with a fundamental question:
How much of the design process can, or should, be assisted by machines?
This survey and its accompanying report will capture industry-wide views on the utility of AI tools within architectural design workflows, and uncover how this technology could reshape practice in the years to come.

Why This Survey Matters
Artificial intelligence is no longer in the distant future — it’s already influencing concept design, rendering, collaboration, and decision-making across the built environment. But adoption has been uneven, experimentation is ongoing, and uncertainty persists.
Accordingly, our new survey, entitled “How AI Is Reshaping Architectural Practice,” is designed to uncover how professionals are actually using AI today, what challenges they face, and where they see the greatest potential — or risk — in the years to come.
Whether you’re embracing AI in your daily workflow or still evaluating its place in your practice, your insight will help shape a definitive white paper to be published in early 2026, offering rare visibility into the state of AI in architecture worldwide.
What You’ll Be Asked About
The survey is structured to reflect where the AEC industry stands today — and where it’s heading tomorrow. As a participant, you can expect to answer questions about:
-
How your firm is using (or avoiding) AI tools in design and visualization
-
Which stages of the project workflow AI is impacting most — from concept to construction
-
The quality, accuracy, and creativity of AI-generated outputs
The survey also includes pathways for both AI adopters and those yet to implement AI, helping paint a full-spectrum view of the profession in 2025 and beyond.
Why You Should Participate
By participating in this year’s survey, your views will form part of the 2026 AI in Architecture White Paper, a comprehensive report that distills global insights, benchmarks and trends from across the profession. This exclusive resource will help you understand how your peers are approaching AI, what’s working (and what’s not), and where the greatest opportunities lie. The latest report will be the fourth in a series of reports on ArchViz by Architizer and Chaos, creating an in-depth picture of the AEC industry’s evolving of technology. You can access the last year’s report on the “State of AI in Architecture” here.
Respondents for the latest survey will gain clarity on how their firm compares to others in terms of AI adoption — whether you’re leading the charge, catching up or still evaluating your path forward. The findings from this survey will offer a snapshot of how real-world architects are navigating these tools, and how studios are adapting to shifting creative and technical demands.
Crucially, your input will help shape the next generation of software tools. Chaos and Architizer are working to amplify the voices of practitioners so that innovation in the AEC space reflects actual needs on the ground. Your responses will directly influence the future direction of design technology across the industry.
As a token of appreciation, your participation will automatically enter you into a draw to win a $300 Amazon gift card, courtesy of Chaos. Whether you use it to upgrade your toolkit or treat yourself to something personal, it’s one more reason to take a few minutes to share your perspective.
Take the Survey Today!
The survey will remain open through November 7, 2025 and takes 7 minutes or less to complete. Whether you’re a principal architect, junior designer, visualization lead or freelancer, your perspective is critical in this pivotal moment.
