| Summary: | This work presents an automatic system that, from the specification of an architectural language of design, generates several alternative floor plants for the construction of modular homes. The system uses Genetic Algorithms and is capable of efficiently producing various plant solutions. The rules of architecture are implemented in the fitness function translating the rules of a Shape Grammar created by the architect. Different solutions of feasible plants are generated, that is, solutions that obey the rules of Shape Grammar and do not have overlays between the rooms. The system can be integrated with a user-friendly interface in the future, to allow for the house owners customization of their own house. Such a tool can also be delivered to construction companies for them to manage the design of modular houses that meet specific clients requirements.
