The Potential of Generative Design in Standardization of Interior Components for Production of Affordable Housing Units.
Abstract
The focus of this research is on the potential of the generative design in the
standardization of interior components in the building of Affordable Housing
programme (AHP) by the jua kali sectors in Kenya.Generative design employs
evolutionary concepts to iteratively enhance design possibilities. To produce solutions
and evaluate them against design goals, It modifies the three selection, crossover, and
mutation operators.
Through out the course of this paper the researcher looked at different key technologies
being developed in the generative design industry. The researcher focuses on componets
used in the interior design. This study picked up a curtain rod holder as the main element
due to its size and time that was available to the researcher. The researcher then sourced
the data from the Jua kali sector and affordable housing programme . The data collected
and fed to the main genarative design sotware which was Fusion 360 .The software was
licensed from Autodesk with educational license. The results and outcome from the
process are then analyzed the ways the technology utilized and potential it possess going
forward as a design industry.
The inner workings of the generative design process, ranging from ways to help decrease
component mass, enhance the performance of their designs, reduce manufacturing
process time, and assist them in creating innovative product suitable to the future
generation of users who are more concerned than ever with customization and
uniqueness.
