Spatial Systems in Architecture and Design: Some History and Logic

L March and G Stiny

Environment and Planning B, 1985, vol. 12, issue 1, 31-53

Abstract: In the past decade, a powerful generative approach to shape and spatial systems has been developed in parallel with the introduction of computer aids in the design process. This new approach allows for designs and their meanings to be viewed as the results of computations carried out according to rules of composition and correlative rules of description. Some of the history and logic of these developments is surveyed in this paper.
