You have a design problem to solve. The goals are well defined, but some of those goals compete with one another. You understand the constraints and the inputs that you can control. You have a few ideas, but they'll take time to develop. What if you miss the best idea because you don't have time to explore that far?

This is where generative design helps. With the generative design process, you specify the goals, constraints, and inputs. Then you leverage the power of the computer to generate lots of design alternatives quickly and to evaluate these alternatives against the defined goals. The result is a ranked set of design alternatives that meet your goals.

Use the samples provided or customize in Dynamo.
