Abstract

An aesthetic oriented, multi-agent system is proposed for supporting generation of buildings prototypes that fulfill aesthetic criteria. Multi-hierarchical composite graphs are used to represent object’s structure, consisting of Biedermann’s basic perception elements - geons, grouped into aesthetic measurable components. The approach is illustrated on the example of designing a simple 3d architectural object according to the accepted rules of aesthetics.
