source	International Conference on Generative Art
summary	The development of modern computer-based design systems and advanced manufacturing methods have progressed to the point where the promise of mass-customisation and the establishment of the ‘designer as integrator’ are being realised: the former implies that designers can now act as creators of systems which produce infinite possibilities, and the latterthat the convergence of designer and manufacturer, through common technologies, is enabling a reunification between design and construction processes. This paper discusses the symbiotic relationships of these paradigms within design research, practice and their commercialimplications, and the significance of the integration of new design tools and production methods for architects and designers.
