Benefits of technology

The invention provides a way for architects to create designs with characteristics related only to their area's properties without relying solely upon any previous ones or assumptions about them. This makes it easier than just looking at how well they were doing when trying new things around.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving methods used during architectural planning systems designed around buildings undergoing development without requiring manual adjustments made at every iteration throughout their entire life cycle.

Embodiment Construction

[0002]Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to computer-aided design technology and, more specifically, to techniques for automatically generating designs having characteristic topologies for urban design projects.

Description of the Related Art

[0003]In a typical urban design project, a designer generates a design for developing a property. For example, the designer could plan the placement and organization of a number of houses to be built within a housing subdivision. The designer usually generates each design by manually and / or mentally making a number of design choices based on various design criteria and design objectives associated with the urban design project.

[0004]One common design criterion in urban design projects is that construction can occur only within the boundaries of the property being developed. Accordingly, when making various design choices, the designer has to manually and / or mentally adapt the organization of his / her design with the relevant

Abstract

An urban design pipeline automatically generates design options for an urban design project. The urban design pipeline includes a geometry engine and an evaluation engine. The geometry engine analyzes design criteria, design objectives, and design heuristics associated with the urban design project and then generates numerous candidate designs. The design criteria specify a property boundary associated with a region of land to be developed. The design objectives indicate a specific type of topology that is derived from an existing urban layout. The design heuristics include different sets of construction rules for generating designs with specific types of topologies. The geometry engine generates candidate designs that conform to the property boundary and have topological characteristics in common with the existing urban layout.
