“The Cairo Sketches” are architectural explorations using Midjourney, an AI text to image generator. The purpose of this art project is to re-investigate the Islamic geometry using more recent mathematical principles. As an Egyptian architect I found it thrilling to apply these concepts over the Mamluk building’s Facade in Cairo.
