Pietro Belluschi Through the Midjourney Lens: From Steel and Wood to Seeded AI Visions

Introduction

✨ The Quiet Master of Light and Line

Pietro Belluschi was not loud. His buildings didn’t shout. They stood with stillness. Born in Italy in 1899, shaped by war, study, and migration, he crossed the ocean and built a life in America. What he built, he built to last. Not just in structure, but in soul.

Belluschi’s language was clean and restrained. Steel, wood, glass. He stripped away the noise. In churches, in towers, in quiet homes, he worked the tension between function and feeling. His architecture did not aim to impress. It aimed to endure.

You don’t simply look at Belluschi’s work. You stand before it, and it stirs something in you. The Equitable Building in Portland. The Chapel at MIT. Modest on the outside. Alive within. These were not monuments. They were meditations.

If you want to understand his legacy, start here with Pietro Belluschi. Then return. Because his legacy moves again. Not in stone, but in pixels.

🔄 A Legacy in Motion, Again

In this essay, we explore Belluschi’s work through a new tool. Midjourney, the AI image engine that blends vision with variation. Using versions 6, 6.1, and 7, alongside the Midjourney Web UI Interface, we step into digital terrain. This is where his legacy unfolds again.

Each version of Midjourney renders form in new ways. Version 6 leans into precision and realism. Version 6.1 balances clarity with emotion. Version 7 pulls toward mood and abstraction. Each reveals a different side of Belluschi’s spirit. We will look at all three. Not to judge them, but to understand what they let us see.

🌟 Purpose and Promise

This is not only a study of a man. It is a dialogue across time. We begin by tracing Belluschi’s life and architectural principles. Then we shift into the realm of artificial intelligence. The question is not how AI copies Belluschi, but how it reimagines what he once shaped by hand.

Midjourney does not copy. It interprets. Through this lens, we will explore key photographic parameters in Midjourney. Aperture. Shutter speed. ISO. Lighting. Lens choices. We will see how prompts shaped by the language of photography can evoke Belluschi’s emotional balance.

🌱 Seeds of Structure

An essential concept in this process is the Midjourney seed. Seeds shape structure. When a seed is fixed, results are repeatable. When it changes, outcomes shift. This is not randomness. It is intention with variation. Like light shifting across a wooden beam at dusk, seeds allow the familiar to become new.

Belluschi’s buildings never froze in place. They moved with the seasons. The sun. The visitor. Similarly, Midjourney’s stylization parameters, from raw clarity to expressive warmth, allow for fluid translation. We will explore how adjusting these parameters brings out new moods in old forms.

📷 Through the Lens of AI

We also turn to the language of the camera. Or rather, to Midjourney’s interpretation of it. Prompts support photographic values. “f/1.8,” “ISO 100,” “35mm lens,” “golden hour lighting.” These aren't technical jargon. They are mood-makers. In our tests, we applied them to Belluschi’s buildings and found surprising resonance.

Midjourney mimics what a photographer might capture with a camera like the Pentax K-3 Mark III. Known for sharp optics and high dynamic range, the Pentax aesthetic translates well into AI interpretation. It lets us get close to the spirit of the original materials. Wood feels warm. Metal feels exact.

🕰️ Reimagining, Not Replacing

What we are doing is not nostalgia. It is inquiry. It is care. Belluschi does not need replacement. But he welcomes new light. His buildings remain. They do not ask for change. They ask to be seen again.

Architecture lives beyond the wall. In the sketch, in the photograph, and now in the pixel. Through Midjourney, we are not imitating Belluschi. We are listening to him. With quiet prompts. With steady eyes. With the belief that meaning is not locked in time. It just changes form.

Belluschi: Early Life and Architectural Voice

🇮🇹 Roots in Italy

Pietro Belluschi was born in Ancona, a port on the Adriatic, in 1899. He grew up in Bologna and Rome, shaped by streets of stone and the weight of history. His studies were interrupted by war. He served as an artillery officer in World War I before returning to the University of Rome, where he earned a degree in civil engineering in 1922.
His story is covered in Encyclopedia Britannica, though only briefly, and in greater detail on Wikipedia.

🌊 Crossing the Atlantic

A scholarship carried him to America. In 1923, he entered Cornell University, where he studied architecture and earned a second bachelor’s degree in 1924. According to Nicoll’s Spiritual Shelters of Pietro Belluschi (Oregon Historical Quarterly, 2001), after earning his civil engineering degree in Rome, Belluschi came to the United States, studied architecture at Cornell, and then briefly worked as an electrical engineer in Idaho before moving to Portland. America was building fast. Belluschi saw the future taking shape and prepared to play his part.

🏡 Portland as Home

In Portland, he joined the respected firm of A. E. Doyle. He began as a draftsman, rose to chief designer, and later partner. The Depression years slowed commissions, but one major project placed him in the national eye: the Portland Art Museum in 1930. Its clean modernist lines, rooted in function, brought him recognition and confirmed his direction.
His career and contributions are chronicled in the Oregon Encyclopedia.

🏢 The Equitable Building

In 1948, Pietro Belluschi completed the Equitable Building in Portland, later renamed the Commonwealth Building. It was the first large office tower in the world to use an aluminum façade and a fully sealed, air-conditioned environment. The design set a new standard for modernism. Its clean lines and innovative systems shaped the way architects approached tall buildings after the war.

For Portland, it was more than a landmark. It became part of daily life. Many Oregonians worked there. Others studied or passed it on their way through the city. Belluschi’s modernism was not removed from the people. It became the backdrop of the ordinary.

The Equitable proved that innovation could also serve function. It showed how material and technology could merge with design. Its influence reached far beyond Oregon, earning international recognition and a place in architectural history.

More on its story and legacy can be found at the Oregon Encyclopedia and Wikipedia.

⛪ A New Kind of Church

Belluschi believed churches should be spiritual shelters. Not monuments, but places for courage, rest, and prayer. He wrote in 1949 that the modern architect cannot erect great monuments, but can create small temples on a human scale, designed to produce an atmosphere most conducive to worship.

His first sacred works were modest. The Morninglight Chapel at Finley Mortuary and the Riverview Cemetery Chapel revealed his early touch. Warm red brick. Narrow mullioned windows. A rose window for focus. A Japanese influence in the roofline. The American Institute of Architects named Morninglight among the hundred outstanding structures in the United States since World War I.

In 1939, he completed St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Portland Heights. Built of cedar and Douglas fir, with knotty pine walls and a steep steeple, it seemed to rise from the hillside. The nave remained dim, while the chancel glowed with natural light. Belluschi shaped a space where material and light were the true ornament.

Postwar commissions followed. Zion Lutheran Church in Portland used fine Willamina brick and a sanctuary lit by pale stained glass. It was celebrated internationally, exhibited at the 1959 American National Exhibition in Moscow and the 1964 World’s Fair in Belgium. Across town, Central Lutheran Church was modern and daring, with stained wood, Japanese influences, and six great laminated arches. The American Institute of Architects ranked it among the four finest churches built in its first hundred years.

For Portland’s Italian community, Belluschi designed St. Philip Neri Catholic Church. Modeled after early Christian basilicas, it carried plain brick, timber vaults, and tall slit windows. A rose window bathed the chancel in soft light. Tradition and modernity met in balance.

In Cottage Grove, he worked with a Presbyterian congregation to preserve honey locust trees planted by pioneers. His design set the sanctuary beside a garden, with views outward to town. Faith and daily life intertwined. His approach here is remembered as one of his most admired works.

Later works included Christ the King Catholic Church in Milwaukie and St. Matthew Lutheran Church in Beaverton. Both revealed his hallmarks: exposed timber beams, polyhedral roofs, and sanctuaries where structure became decoration. He called this “holy emptiness,” a balance of simplicity, proportion, and natural light.

Toward the end of his life, Belluschi designed chapels at the University of Portland, Murray Hills Christian Church, and Trinity Lutheran Church in Sheridan. Even in his final years, he stayed true to his belief: architecture should be intimate, rooted in place, and filled with light. Restore Oregon’s Sacred Spaces Tour now celebrates these living works.

🌲 The Pacific Northwest Voice

Belluschi’s regional voice was shaped by Oregon’s forests and skies. He fused modernist principles with the warmth of wood, the weight of brick, and the grace of natural light. His works showed that innovation need not sever ties to place.

As noted in our earlier essay, From Modernism to Midjourney: Reimagining Le Corbusier Through AI, architecture is a language that can be carried across tools and time. Belluschi spoke that language with both restraint and resonance.

Le Corbusier, the master of concrete and form, sought universals. He pursued purity in geometry, proportion, and light. His vision was monumental, proposing ideals for an international society. Belluschi, by contrast, sought intimacy. He rooted his modernism in community and place. Where Le Corbusier framed ideals for the world, Belluschi shaped shelters for the spirit.

Frank Lloyd Wright stood between these poles. As explored in Midjourney Meets Wright: AI, Architecture, and the Soul of Design, Wright wove organic architecture into the American landscape. His work was dynamic, flowing with rivers, hills, and prairies. He sought harmony with nature, but on a scale that carried drama. He was not monumental in Le Corbusier’s sense, nor quiet in Belluschi’s, but organic and theatrical.

Then came Zaha Hadid, the “queen of the curve.” As we saw in From Vision to Render: Exploring Zaha Hadid Through Midjourney and the Beginner’s Lens, her forms broke from orthodoxy. Where Belluschi sought intimacy, Wright sought harmony, and Le Corbusier sought universals, Hadid sought motion. She sculpted architecture into sweeping gestures that defied gravity. Her buildings felt alive, like frozen rivers or unfolding wings.

Yet the four shared a thread. Each believed architecture was more than shelter. Each gave primacy to form, light, and material. Each rejected ornament for ornament’s sake, instead finding beauty in structure itself.

Their differences sharpen this thread. Le Corbusier declared abstraction and universality. Wright pursued integration and drama. Belluschi embodied humility and place. Hadid embraced futurism and fluidity. One spoke in rectilinear concrete. Another in timber and prairie lines. Another in Pacific Northwest wood and glass. Another in curves and parametric flow.

Together, they show that modernism and its descendants were not a single voice but a symphony. One built monuments for the machine age. One composed organic harmonies in the American soil. One shaped intimate sanctuaries from timber and brick. One launched architecture into sculptural futures. Seen as a whole, they remind us that architecture is never one path. It is a living language, shaped by many voices, bound by the search for clarity, proportion, and grace.

🍃 Regionalism and Resonance

Pietro Belluschi carried the Pacific Northwest into every line he drew. His houses and chapels echoed the forests. Rooflines traced the silhouettes of Douglas firs. Windows opened to the shifting Oregon sky. He treated glass not as barrier but as frame for the play of light and cloud. His architecture did not cut into nature. It listened to it.

Where Le Corbusier sought universality and Wright sought organic flow, Belluschi sought rootedness. His work was regional modernism at its most honest. He used wood because it was abundant and familiar. He used brick because it grounded buildings in the soil. He never imposed style upon the land. He let the land shape style.

In his sacred works, this resonance was clearest.  St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Portland glowed with cedar and fir. Zion Lutheran Church stood as a hymn in brick and glass. According to Nicoll in Spiritual Shelters of Pietro Belluschi (Oregon Historical Quarterly, 2001), St. Philip Neri echoed basilicas of his native Italy but wore the face of Oregon stone. These buildings belonged to their place. They could not have been lifted and set elsewhere.

Belluschi proved that restraint could hold great strength. While Wright’s houses stretched with sweeping horizontals, Belluschi’s held close and quiet. While Hadid’s forms twisted and curved like frozen rivers, Belluschi’s sanctuaries stayed simple, warm, and still. Less was more, and more was meaning.

Regionalism was not a limitation for Belluschi. It was a language. By speaking it, he gave the Northwest a voice in the global story of modern architecture.

⚖️ Balance of Function and Feeling

At the core of Belluschi’s work was balance. He merged the precision of a civil engineer with the vision of an architect. Aluminum and concrete stood alongside wood and glass. He was modern without being cold. He was traditional without being stuck in the past.

Belluschi knew function could carry feeling. His Equitable Building proved that innovation in technology, with aluminum skin, sealed air, and central cooling, could still create humane spaces. His churches proved that stripped-down forms could still stir the heart. In every case, light became the bridge. Light gave concrete warmth. Light gave timber holiness.

This balance set him apart from his peers. Le Corbusier often leaned to abstraction, to ideals that left human touch behind. Wright leaned toward drama, crafting buildings that demanded attention as they integrated into land. Hadid leaned toward spectacle, sculpting space into futuristic gesture. Belluschi leaned toward humility. He built for people, not just for theory.

His engineering background gave him clarity. His Italian heritage gave him reverence for tradition. His American experience gave him room to innovate. Out of these threads he wove structures that were both practical and poetic.

That is why his architecture still breathes today. It does not belong only to its time. It belongs to anyone who steps inside, feels the hush of wood, or watches light shift across stone. In Belluschi’s hands, balance was not compromise. It was art.

Midjourney Versions & Style: Evolving the AI Brush

🎨 Midjourney’s Evolving Eye

Midjourney is not static. It grows with each version. From v6 to v6.1 and then to v7, the AI has become sharper, more coherent, and more sensitive to the subtleties of a prompt. For Pietro Belluschi, whose language was rooted in restraint and light, this evolution matters.

Version 6 brought detail and clarity. Surfaces looked real. Materials gained weight. It was the first step toward images that felt like photographs rather than sketches. For Belluschi’s Equitable Building, v6 could capture aluminum and glass with precision. It mirrored his modernist clarity.

Version 6.1 softened the edge. It did not abandon realism, but it introduced nuance. Lines bent more naturally. Light carried warmth. For Belluschi’s churches, v6.1 rendered timber beams and knotty pine walls with a glow that felt lived in. It balanced structure with emotion, much as Belluschi balanced function with spirit.

Version 7 leaned into mood. It embraced atmosphere and tone. The results often felt like memory more than record. A chapel glowed as if recalled at sunset. A tower felt like a presence rather than an object. For Belluschi, this opened new possibilities. His architecture could be seen not only in form but in feeling.

🧩 User Voices and Experiments

These insights do not come from official manuals. They come from the community. Designers and architects share their experiments in online groups. They test seeds, lighting, and lens prompts. They compare v6 to v6.1 and v7. They note how each model shifts coherence, stylization, and detail.

For Belluschi, this user-driven knowledge is essential. It mirrors how his buildings were tested in use, in light, in weather. Just as his architecture responded to people, Midjourney evolves through feedback. Each version reflects human need and imagination.

🔍 Style and Suggestion

The difference between versions is best seen by trying them. In v6, use the raw style flag. A prompt like “Equitable Building Portland, aluminum façade, wide-angle lens, ISO 100 --v 6 --style raw” produces crisp, realistic results. In v7, increase stylization. Try “wooden chapel, golden hour light, ISO 3200 --v 7 --stylize 750”. The chapel will not just appear. It will breathe.

Each version carries a different brush. One is exact. One is balanced. One is emotional. Together, they offer a palette for reimagining Belluschi’s voice. His buildings can be seen as living forms, not static objects.

📚 Linking Back to Basics

For readers new to this tool, it helps to return to the foundation. In our earlier essay, Midjourney: Where Imagination Meets Intelligence, we explored how prompts, aspect ratios, and style parameters shape the way AI interprets an idea. That post also traced the evolution of Midjourney from its earliest versions to v7, showing how each stage refined coherence, detail, and creative range. It explained the shift from Discord to the Web UI, a change that matters for anyone experimenting with architecture in AI.

Understanding those basics is vital before applying Midjourney to design. To see Pietro Belluschi through AI, you must first understand how the system “sees.” Every adjustment, whether a prompt variation or a stylization setting, is more than a technical step. It is a way of listening more closely to form, light, and atmosphere.

🖌 A Dialogue with Versions

Architecture changes with tools. Stone gave way to steel. Timber met glass. Concrete opened new forms. Midjourney is another tool, another medium. Belluschi once balanced wood and light. Now we balance prompts and parameters. Each version of Midjourney is a dialogue with the past, a way of touching the work without altering its essence.

💡 Feeling in Geometry

Belluschi’s modernism was never cold. He gave warmth to lines, spirit to material. Midjourney v7 reflects that. It pushes geometry toward feeling. Where v6 saw structure, v7 sees atmosphere. The difference is the same as standing outside a chapel and then sitting inside as sunlight shifts across the pews.

🕰 Versions as Time

To compare versions is to compare eras. v6 feels like a photograph taken with a sharp lens. v6.1 feels like the same photograph softened by light. v7 feels like memory itself, blurred yet luminous. Each version gives another way to see Belluschi. None is right or wrong. All belong to the story.

🌐 A Collective Experiment

The community continues to test. Architects feed blueprints into prompts. Artists blend Belluschi with Hadid’s curves or Le Corbusier’s concrete. Each prompt is an experiment. Each image is a new interpretation. Together they expand the dialogue of modernism into the digital age.

🏛 A Living Legacy

Midjourney does not replace Belluschi. It extends him. It allows his work to be seen by people who never walked into his chapels or studied his facades. His architecture moves across screens now, global and immediate. Versions become vessels carrying his voice outward.

🎭 The Art of Restraint

Through it all, restraint matters. Over-stylize and Belluschi disappears. Under-style and the image loses life. The art lies in balance. Just as Belluschi balanced wood and steel, we balance prompts and parameters. Midjourney’s versions give us the tools. It is up to us to listen and create images that honor his quiet strength.

🌱 Seeds: Consistency in AI Composition

Seeds are the quiet heart of Midjourney. They determine where each image begins. Every render starts with random noise, and the seed is what guides that noise into shape. Without seeds, images shift endlessly. With seeds, results can be traced, repeated, and compared.

To understand seeds is to understand structure. A fixed seed is like a blueprint. It does not guarantee identical results, but it shapes a family of images with the same DNA. Change the seed, and you change the composition at its root.

In Midjourney, seeds range from zero to over four billion. Each number is a starting point. Think of it as choosing a plot of land before building. The same prompt placed on two different seeds produces two different designs. The prompt is the architect. The seed is the site.

For Pietro Belluschi, this echoes the way small choices shaped his buildings. A change in timber. A shift in window placement. A different orientation toward the sun. Each adjustment created a variation, subtle but powerful. Seeds carry that same quiet influence in AI composition.

Choose one seed and you will see echoes across images. The Equitable Building may appear with variations in light or angle, but the core rhythm will remain. It is like walking around a building at different times of day. Each view changes, yet the form holds.

In practice, seeds are also a tool for collaboration. When two creators share the same prompt and seed, they can reproduce similar results. This creates shared ground. Just as architects share plans, AI creators share seeds. It is a common language.

A simple test shows the value. Fix a seed, for example 123456789, and generate three takes on the Equitable Building. Compare them. The proportions echo. The material feels familiar. But light shifts and tone shifts, creating three different moods from the same root.

Prompt example:
Equitable Building Portland modernist architecture, aluminum façade, midday light, wide-angle lens, f 16, ISO 100 --v 6 --seed 123456789 --style raw --ar 3:4

Seeds also create continuity. A project can begin with one seed and expand into series. Each image belongs to the same family, carrying a subtle bond. This is vital for architectural storytelling. Belluschi’s chapels shared details across decades. Seeds allow AI to echo that continuity.

The poetry lies in restraint. Fixing seeds can create clarity. Letting them drift creates surprise. Both paths matter. Both reflect the balance between discipline and discovery. Belluschi built with the same sense. He valued order, yet welcomed variation.

In Midjourney, seeds are not numbers. They are choices. They are the ground where prompts grow. To use them well is to listen. To guide them with care is to bring structure into the fluid world of AI.

📸 Photography Parameters in the Midjourney Web UI

📷 Aperture

Aperture in Midjourney works like depth in a camera lens. A wide aperture suggests blur in the background. A narrow aperture suggests crisp detail across the frame. In prompts, phrases like “f 1.8” or “f 16” guide the AI to mimic depth of field.

For Belluschi’s chapels, a wide aperture blurs the trees while keeping timber beams in focus. For the Equitable Building, a narrow aperture keeps every glass line sharp.

Prompt Example:
Pacific Northwest wooden chapel interior, timber beams, soft golden light, blurred trees in background, f 1.8, ISO 200 --v 7 --ar 3:4

⏱ Shutter Speed

Shutter speed suggests time. A fast shutter captures crisp edges. A slow shutter lets motion blur flow into the image. In prompts, “1/1000 sec” implies stillness. “1/30 sec” lets clouds or visitors blur around the frame.

For Belluschi’s chapels, a slow shutter turns candlelight into a soft glow. For his towers, a fast shutter freezes the structure against the sky.

Prompt Example:
Equitable Building Portland, modernist skyscraper, aluminum façade, crisp blue sky, fast shutter 1/1000 sec, ISO 100 --v 6 --style raw

🌌 ISO

ISO suggests grain and sensitivity. “ISO 100” gives clarity, with fine textures visible in brick or stone. “ISO 3200” adds noise, suggesting mood in dim interiors.

For Belluschi, ISO can reveal the polish of aluminum in his skyscrapers or the warmth of pine inside his chapels. It creates a spectrum between clarity and atmosphere.

Prompt Example:
St. Thomas More Catholic Church, cedar and Douglas fir interior, candlelit atmosphere, ISO 3200, soft shadows, warm light --v 7 --stylize 500

☀ Lighting and Angles

Light is the essence of Belluschi’s work, and prompts must reflect it. “Soft morning light” carries freshness. “Harsh midday sun” gives contrast. “Warm golden hour” glows against wood.

Angles matter too. A worm’s-eye view makes the Equitable Building rise with power. An intimate interior angle places the viewer among pews, catching light as it falls across timber.

Prompt Example:
Equitable Building Portland, worm’s-eye view, aluminum and glass façade, harsh midday sun, sharp reflections --v 6.1 --ar 16:9

🎞 Lens, RAW, and Stylization

Lens size shifts perspective. A “35 mm lens” grounds realism. A “14 mm wide-angle” exaggerates lines.

RAW mode, through the flag --style raw, strips back stylization to give a more natural feel. Stylization controls emotion. “--stylize 50” keeps results close to reality. “--stylize 1000” lets the AI paint with bold expression.

Belluschi’s work benefits from both. Use raw to honor detail. Use stylization to honor spirit.

Prompt Example:
St. Philip Neri Catholic Church, modern basilica style, interior timber vaults, 35 mm lens, ISO 200 --v 7 --style raw --ar 3:2

Photography parameters are not decoration. They are voice. They let AI speak with clarity, mood, or drama. In Midjourney, they are the tools that make an image feel lived in. Belluschi worked with the same care. Every line, every window, every angle was a decision about how people would see and feel.

🔗 Narrative Transition: From Architecture to AI

He carved steel and wood. Now we bring him into light again with AI.

Belluschi’s buildings were not about shape alone. They carried silence, warmth, and memory. In Midjourney, prompts can echo these qualities. Aperture becomes a way to frame intimacy. ISO becomes a way to shape mood. Stylization becomes a way to balance clarity and expression.

The transition is not about replacement. It is about reinterpretation. Just as sketches and photographs once extended architecture, AI renders extend it now. They do not erase the buildings. They let us see them again, from new angles, in new lights.

Belluschi built for people. His chapels were sanctuaries. His towers were workplaces. In AI, we continue that dialogue. We prompt not to create monuments, but to create experiences. The medium shifts, but the intent remains.

Light was his constant. Light is AI’s constant. It falls across glass, warms timber, and reveals concrete. In Midjourney, light is as vital as any word. To prompt well is to ask for light with care.

This is where architecture and AI meet. Both are languages. Both need structure. Both need restraint. In blending them, we do not move away from Belluschi. We move toward him.

As explored in our essay Midjourney Meets Wright: AI, Architecture, and the Soul of Design, reinterpretation is not loss. It is a way to keep dialogue alive. Wright, Le Corbusier, and Belluschi speak still, their voices carried through pixels as much as through stone.

Midjourney does not draw blueprints. It draws emotions. For Belluschi, that is fitting. His work was always more than form. It was spirit.

🧪 Sample Prompt Workflows

Prompts are recipes. They are blueprints for images. Each variation adjusts flavor, mood, or clarity. For Belluschi, prompts are ways of translating architecture into the AI’s visual language.

One example:
Equitable Building Portland modernist architecture, aluminum façade, midday light, wide-angle lens, f 16, ISO 100 --v 6 --seed 123456789 --style raw --ar 3:4

This prompt locks a seed. It fixes perspective. It tells the AI to be sharp, realistic, architectural. The building rises with precision, echoing the clarity of Belluschi’s modernism.

Another example:
Pacific Northwest wooden chapel interior, warm golden hour, shallow depth of field, f 2.8, slow shutter, ISO 3200, expressive lighting --v 7 --seed 987654321 --stylize 750

This prompt leans into feeling. It softens edges. It deepens mood. The chapel glows, warm and human. It mirrors the intimacy Belluschi gave his sacred works.

Between these two, we see the range of Midjourney. One prompt carries function. The other carries feeling. Together they echo Belluschi’s balance.

Prompts can be adjusted endlessly. Change aperture and depth shifts. Change ISO and mood changes. Change stylization and voice changes. Each experiment is a new way of listening to the architecture.
