Designing Floor-Layouts with the Assistance of Curious Agents
Conference paper
Abstract
The paper deals with visual computational design in which emergence is a key to creativity. The presented framework for conceptual design uses shape grammars and curious agent assistants. The intelligent agents perceive the changing environment and emergent phenomena that occur in it. Interacting with each other and the designer they look for the most original and plausible solutions to a given design task. The approach is illustrated by the example of a designing floor-layouts.
