Abstract
One of the most persistent challenges which face the theory and practice of architecture today is the paradigmatic shift of computational design process that occurs in design practice as well as the emergence of digital technologies. Virtual and physical evolutionary form finding process has evolved in research. It has shown some development and it has been progressive throughout the previous decade. Bound with algorithms, genetics, bio-digitals and other new forms, architecture is regarded as the succession of different radical evolutionary styles. It transformed the shape of buildings, the way it is formed and the birth of design extremism is rapidly increasing; however, it’s the era of generating form especially through evolutionary design and morphogenetic computational tools more shapes of buildings are being experimented. Thus, it is a clear indication that paradigmatic shift of design process is reshaping the way architects perceive and design buildings. The new mode of designing buildings in today’s digital age is evolutionary architecture. The key concept behind evolutionary architecture is the use of morphogenetic computational process as a class of highly parallel evolutionary, adaptive search from biology. It proposes an evolutionary model of nature as the generating process for architectural form. In this approach, architectural morphology is expressed as generative rules so that evolution and transformation can be accelerated and iterated by the use of computer and physical models. As computational tools are becoming powerful, evolutionary design process have widespread in research. It is now used in practice and finding of form instead of making it and popularly known as Emergence. The Theory of Evolution Emergence looks up at any natural phenomena like genetic space from biology and extracts their morphogenetic process and morphological formations as a generator of design. Several applications of this theory are Morpho-Ecologies, Bio thing and Continuum, genetic algorithmic and L-System in Architecture in which a morphogenetic process is applied as form generator to architectural design. Nevertheless, its approach takes up from biological computational and evolutionary morphogenesis for which the process of evolutionary development and growth of organism is observed and applied as generative morphogenetic process so as to model building forms. In the process of engaging with the evolutionary design methodologies, this thesis discusses a novel approach of conceptualizing building approaches in the nowadays stage of digital design. The paper discusses the background of evolutionary architecture and elaborates on the topic by discussing theoretical aspects of evolutionary form generation and the digital tools technologies behind the design process.
