Gensler recognizes that architecture and design are on the edge of a revolution. New graduates and interns are entering the field at the most exciting moment in a generation. Artificial intelligence is not just another tool-it is transforming how ideas are imagined, tested, and brought to life in the built environment. For a profession that has always thrived at the intersection of art, science, technology, and sustainability, this shift invites a new kind of designer: one who is curious, bold, and eager to explore what architecture and design can impact and become societal shifts.
