Design guidelines for automated floor plan generation applications – target group survey, results and reflections

This article presents the results of a survey regarding architects’ expectations towards software for automated floor plan generation (AFPG) and optimisation processes in architectural design. More than 150 practising architects from Poland and abroad took part in the survey. Survey results were then extracted, ordered and interpreted with the use of data mining. The survey structure, methodology and analytical tools used are described in the paper.
