Reducing Semantic Distance in Generative Systems: A Massing Example (1998)
article⁄Reducing Semantic Distance in Generative Systems: A Massing Example (1998)
abstract⁄Generative design formalisms utilise discrete, constructivesteps to encode strategies for formal change. In physical designmedia, the pervasive metaphor for doing design is the direct andcontinuous manipulation of the developing form. The goal of ourinvestigation is to develop mixed initiative approaches to designexploration.In this paper, we address how constrained manipulation ingenerative systems can support both discrete and continuous modesof interaction. Massing is a common strategy for processing conceptual notions about three dimensional form. We use massingmodels of tenth century temple cellas as an example to illustratean environment for constrained manipulation.
