Abstract
A design engine is configured to automatically generate designs for multi-family housing projects that simultaneously meet local construction regulations while also meeting specific financial targets. The design engine includes a design analyzer that generates design trends based on a database of historical designs. A feature extractor within the design analyzer performs a geometrical analysis of the historical designs to generate a library of features. A feature parameterizer within the design analyzer performs a parameterization process to generate one or more parametric values for each feature. A parameter correlator within the design analyzer compares different subsets of parametric values to identify relationships between those values. A trend aggregator identifies relationships that occur across multiple historical designs to determine a set of design trends. The design engine generates design options using the design trends. Design options generated in this manner include design features that historically promote both feasibility and desirability.
