"Beautifully illustrated... A fine introduction to generative
design, filled with impressive examples and thankfully free of
mind- numbing jargon... This book, equal parts art and textbook, is
a valuable tool for both learning what exists and triggering new
ideas." -- Steven Heller, The New York Times
"Fortunately, this insiders' how-to manual--by Hartmut Bohnacker,
Benedikt Gro�, and Julia Laub--contains loads of images and project
profiles that together form a snapshot of the emerging field,
which, in layman's terms, uses computer software and algorithms to
generate visually exciting forms based on wildly complex concepts.
The examples are rich and varied, ranging from a series that
visualizes the air quality in various cities through virtual plant
growth to a company logo that evolves through a kind of genetic
recombination." --- Fast Company
