basis of examples

The example of Airbus partition is discussed to prove that unconventional designs produced by GD can be extremely efficient. Also, this example shows that there is no unified approach present in applying generative design. It can use a combination of softwares, each used for a specific function. The choice of softwares used depend on the kind of design problem and its challenges. For running iterations however, separate evolutionary algorithms are used, one of these mentioned is the NSGA II.

On the basis of examples, a tentative workflow flowchart has been stated at the end of this chapter. This however might or might not be applicable to all design problems as every problem is unique due to its challenges.

Impact of Generative Design in Architecture and Related Fields

This chapter highlights the benefits of implementation of generative design in architectural practice. This also includes some of the concerns about GD, that I came across while reading blogs by individuals. These concerns are expressed along with my opinions on the topic and the knowledge I’ve collected from research and lectures conducted by Autodesk forums and University. Change in the role of architects and designers is inevitable. Generative Design however, is giving designers an opportunity to expand their horizons and their prospects.
