This is helpful for exploring design alternatives when you don’t yet know the metrics you want to optimize for. Randomize lets you explore a wide sample of possible solutions using variables that are randomized within specified ranges.Optimize lets you generate design iterations optimized to meet specified goals each succeeding generation of solutions evolves and improves based on prior results.
The software currently includes four methods:
Or, you want to manufacture a part that meets certain requirements for strength while minimizing the amount of material.Or, suppose you are designing an apartment building and want to get just the right mix and arrangement of 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units.Or, you could use it to develop a parking plan that maximizes the number of cars in a parking lot while maintaining the desired circulation and walking distance to building entrances.For example, you could use generative design to come up with seating solutions that optimize the number of seats versus ideal sight lines.The range of design problems is really limited only by your imagination, but some quickly become obvious. You can then choose the preferred solutions, rather than just those that simply satisfy the parameters. Generative design, however, provides views of all the possible designs at once. Until recently, design has been more of a process of trial and error.
