Abstract
`Thinking’ and `doing’ are usually terms that are seen independently of the other. One thinks of a problem in order to find a solution. However, there does not need to be a solution in order to do something. Sometimes it is just for the sake of doing. The interesting consecution is when the doing is a direct result of the thinking. Now imagine that these could both be done simultaneously and in rapid succession. This understanding of a problem is the ability that algorithmic design affords. Through the process of constructing an installation and designing a building using this computational design method, its usefulness in the future will be assessed to determine its viability as a design method rather than a form generative tool. This thesis attempts to explore the generative design process to develop an integrated use for structural analysis and particle simulations to derive purposeful architectural forms.
