Abstract

It is possible to state that it is an important issue to follow different methods or current issues in revealing spatial design approaches. Thus, it will be possible to create spaces with unique and remarkable qualities. Music can be a tool that can be used or utilized in spatial design processes. The aim of this study is to explore the outcomes of combining musical notes and artificial intelligence to develop suggestions and alternatives for spatial design. The material of the study consists of national and international literature on the subject, a song sample selected specifically for the subject, AutoCAD, 3ds Max, Corona Renderer programs and PromeAI artificial intelligence program. In this context, three-dimensional visuals were created using computer programs based on the notes and sound waves of the selected song and alternatives based on these visuals were put forward. As a result, it is possible to state that the use of musical notes together with computer and artificial intelligence programs will be effective for designers to reveal faster, remarkable and innovative spatial design approaches.
