It also allows you to think outside the box in a way because it shows you many more solutions than you could've come up with using a traditional process in a much shorter amount of time. This means you can devote more time to the most creative aspects of your work, like framing the design problem and developing unique strategies for solving it. Generative design is a powerful tool for any design practice, and building these workflows requires gaining new skills, such as parametric modeling, computer simulation, optimization algorithms, and data visualization. Although learning all these…
