Generative design in construction is option generation with feedback, not autonomous architecture: given site constraints, program and budget, an AI generates massing/typology options and scores them on cost, carbon and buildability — the human designer selects and refines.
Constraints (site, program, budget)

Generate options (LLM/parametric/optimisation)

Quantify each option (BIM takeoff + CWICR cost + carbon)

Score & rank (cost/m², kgCO₂e/m², GFA efficiency)

Human selects → refine → detail
| Stage | Tools |
|---|---|
| Massing generation | parametric tools (Rhino/Grasshopper, Dynamo) + LLM sketches |
| Text-to-concept | image models (Midjourney/DALL·E) for moodboards; text-to-BIM is early-stage (Hypar, Finch, qbiq) |
| Quantification | OpenConstructionERP BIM takeoff (oce-bim-takeoff) |
| Cost scoring | CWICR cost bases (oce-load-cost-bases) |
| Carbon scoring | embodied-carbon-esg |
"Generate 3 massing options for a 12,000 m² residential building on a 30×60 m
plot, 6 storeys, max 40% glazing, Berlin climate. For each: GFA, FAR,
indicative structure, kgCO₂e/m² (A1-A3), €/m² construction cost."
Then quantify and rank:
| Option | GFA | FAR | Cost/m² | kgCO₂e/m² | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | 11,800 | 2.9 | 1,050 € | 310 | lowest cost |
| B | 12,400 | 3.1 | 1,180 € | 285 | lowest carbon |
| C | 12,100 | 3.0 | 1,120 € | 295 | balanced |
