Abstract
This paper presents a rule-based procedural generation approach for layout design by design knowledge encoding. Taking linear shopping centres as example, the proposed method encodes the layout design elements of the walkway space, tenant areas, and staircases into generative rules based on geometric operations. The generative rules integrate the shopping centre layout's spatial patterns and geometric features and incorporate user-specified interaction parameters to form a generation tool prototype for early-stage layout design. The results show that the method can deal with the complex spatial elements of linear shopping centres and provide design references for architects, which helps combine generative algorithms with the design process.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers of Architectural Research is an international journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, and case studies to promote rapid communication and exchange among scholars, architects, and engineers. This journal introduces and reviews significant and pioneering achievements in the field of architecture research. Subject areas include the primary branches of architecture, such as architectural design and theory, architectural science and technology, urban planning, landscaping architecture, existing building renovation, and architectural heritage conservation. The journal encourages studies based on a rigorous scientific approach and state-of-the-art technology. All published papers reflect original research works and basic theories, models, computing, and design in architecture. High-quality papers addressing the social aspects of architecture are also welcome. This journal is strictly peer-reviewed and accepts only original manuscripts submitted in English.
