Özet

In this study, a computational, generative design model is investigated in the context of an approach based on improvising in architectural design. This approach asks the question: "How can fractals be used in the architectural design process?" The initial focus is the similarity between the architectural design process and musical improvisation. This is informative because improvisation in the design process can aid in developing numerous design alternatives. An understanding of improvisation in jazz music is particularly relevant for the architectural design process.
