title Workflow for applying optimization-based design exploration to early-stage architectural design – Case study based on EvoMass
source International Journal of Architectural Computing 2022, Vol. 20 - no. 1, pp. 41–60
summary The role of optimization-based design exploration in early-stage architectural design has been increasingly recognized and valued. It has been widely considered an effective approach to achieving performance- informed and performance-driven design. Nevertheless, there is little research into how such design ex- ploration can be adapted to various early-stage architectural design tasks. With this motivation, this paper revolves around a computer-aided design workflow for early-stage building massing design optimization and exploration while presenting three workshop case studies to demonstrate how the workflow can be in- tertwined with the design process. The design workflow is based on EvoMass, an integrated building massing design generation and optimization tool in Rhino-Grasshopper. The case study illustrates task-specific applications of the design workflow for synthesizing building design, finding design precedents, and un- derstanding the interrelationship between formal attributes and building performance. The paper concludes by discussing the relevant efficacy of the design workflow for architectural design.
